PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

CAUTION!
The electric underblanket is only intended for heating beds.

Safety

CAUTION!

• This heated underblanket is equipped with the SAFETY SYSTEM. This sensor technology prevents the entire surface of the heated underblanket from overheating by automatically switching off the heated underblanket in the event of a fault. If the safety system has switched off the heated underblanket, the temperature setting is not illuminated any more even when the heated underblanket is switched on.
• Please note that the heated underblanket is not operable any more due to safety reasons in this case and has to be sent to the service address indicated.
• Do not connect the defective heated underblanket with another control of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch off via the control’s safety system.

Use

Evenly spread the electric underblanket over your mattress, starting at the foot end. Approximately, the cord should be at shoulder height. The electric underblanket can be used on both sides. Then, as usual, lay the fitted sheet over the bed, so that the electric underblanket is between the mattress and the fitted sheet. Each time you make the bed, check that the electric underblanket is flat and properly spread, before you switch it on.

CAUTION!
Make sure the electric underblanket is spread out fully flat and does not fold or crumple during use. We recommend switching on the electric underblanket about 30 minutes before you go to sleep and covering it with a duvet to prevent the heat from escaping.

• To operate the electric underblanket connect the control to the underblanket by plugging in the connector.
• Then plug in the supply plug into the mains outlet.

Switching on
Slide the ON/OFF and heating positions slider to heating position 1, 2 or 3 to switch on the electric underblanket. The temperature settings are illuminated when switched on.

Setting the heating position

• Position 0: OFF
• Position 1: minimum heating
• Position 2: medium heating
• Position 3: maximum heating

NOTE
The quickest way to heat up the electric underblanket is to select the highest temperature setting of the control, first.

CAUTION!
If the electric underblanket is used continuously (for several hours) it is recommended to use the lowest setting (1) of the control to avoid overheating of the user.

Switching off
Slide the ON/OFF and heating positions slider to the OFF position (0) to switch off the electric underblanket. The heating positions no longer light up.

NOTE
If the electric underblanket is not used for several days, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the OFF (0) position and remove the mains plug from the socket. Then remove the control from the electric underblanket by disconnecting it at the connector.

EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Before cleaning the electric underblanket, always remove the plug from the socket. Otherwise you will run the risk of an electric shock. Then disconnect the switch from the electric underblanket by removing the plug.

CAUTION!
The switch may never come into contact with water or other liquids. It could get damaged as a result.

• Use a dry lint-free cloth for cleaning the switch. Do not use chemical cleaning agents or abrasives.

• Small stains on the electric under blanket can be removed with a cloth or a damp sponge and, if necessary, a little bit of gentle detergent liquid.
  The electric under blanket should not be dry cleaned, wrung out, dried in the machine, mangled or ironed. Otherwise, the electric under blanket could get damaged.

• In case of a stronger level of contamination, the electric under blanket can be washed in the washing machine.

• Set the washing machine to a 30 °C program (wool program). Out of environmental considerations, we recommend washing the electric under blanket at the same time as other items. Use a gentle detergent in accordance with the manufacturer’s dosing instructions.
  Please note, the electricity under the blanket will wear if washed too often. The electric under a blanket may therefore be washed in the machine for a maximum of 1 to 2 times per year.

• Immediately after washing, pull the electric under blanket in its original size and form while still wet, and leave it lying flat on a drying rack.

• Do not use pegs or other clamps to attach the electric under blanket to the drying rack. Otherwise, the electric under blanket could get damaged.

• Only connect the switch to the electric under blanket when the plug connection and under blanket are fully dry. Otherwise, the electric under blanket could get damaged.

WARNING
Under no circumstances switch on the electric underblanket to dry it. Otherwise, there is a risk of an electric shock.
