This heated underblanket may be used by children over the age of 8 and by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental skills or a lack of experience or knowledge, provided that they are supervised and have been instructed on how to use the heated underblanket safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

If the cable and control of the heat pad are not positioned properly, there may be a risk of becoming entangled in, being strangled by, tripping over, or stepping on the cable and control. The user must ensure that excess length of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.
Please check this heated underblanket frequently for signs of wear and tear or damage. If any such signs are evident, if the heated underblanket has been used incorrectly or if it no longer heats up, it must be checked by the manufacturer before being switched on again.
Under no circumstances should you open or repair the heated under a blanket (including the accessories) yourself because faultless functionality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the warranty.

Intended use

CAUTION
This heated under a blanket is designed for warming beds, only.

Operation

4.1 Safety

** CAUTION**

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

4.2 Initial use

Spread out the heated under blanket flat onto your mattress starting at the foot end.
To operate the heated under blanket connect the control to the heat under a blanket by plugging in the connector.
Then plug in the supply plug into the mains outlet.
Then put on your bedsheet in the usual manner so that the heated under a blanket is between your mattress and the bedsheet

** CAUTION**
Make sure that the heated under a blanket is spread out entirely flat and that it will not rumple up or crease when in use.

NOTE:
Lie in comfort
If the plug-in connector at shoulder level bothers you, you can rotate the electricity under a blanket by 180° so that the plug-in connector lies at the foot of the bed (see illustration). So that the switch is within comfortable reach of our hand, Beurer offers a switch with a longer connection cable (Item no. 108.611). This is available directly from Beurer Customer Service

4.3 Switching on
Set the ON/OFF slider (4) to the ON (I) position to switch on the heated under a blanket (see Fig. switch). The temperature settings will then light up.
4.4 Selecting the temperature setting
To increase the temperature, press the button (6). To decrease the temperature, press the button (7).
After switching on the temperature setting is illuminated.
Setting 0: OFF
Setting 1: minimum heat
Setting 2-3: Individual heat
Setting 4: maximum heat

NOTE:

The quickest way to heat up the heated under a blanket is to select the highest temperature setting
of the control, first.
We strongly recommend switching on the heated under blanket approx. 30 minutes before going to bed and covering it with the quilt to prevent the warmth from escaping.

** WARNING**
If the heated underblanket is used continuously (for several hours) it is recommended to use the lowest setting of the control to avoid overheating- ing of the user.

4.5 Automatic switch-back
NOTE:
This heated underblanket features an automatic switch-back for safety purposes. Temperature settings 4 and 3 are automatically switched to temperature setting 2 after 3 hours.
4.6 Automatic switch-off
This heated underblanket is equipped with an automatic switch-off. This turns off the heat supply 12 hours after the heated underblanket is first switched on. This is indicated by a flashing temperature setting. In order to reactivate the heated underblanket, the sliding switch (4) must initially be set to off (“0” position). After about 5 seconds it is possible to switch it on again. If the heated underblanket will not be used after the timed switch- off, it should be switched off (sliding switch to position “0”) and the mains plug removed from the mains socket.
4.7 Switching off
Set the ON/OFF slider (4) to the OFF (0) position to switch off the heated underblanket. After switching off the temperature setting is not illuminated anymore.
NOTE:
If the heated underblanket won’t be used for several days, switch it off (Slider to setting „0“/OFF) and remove the supply plug from the main outlet.
