Frequently Asked Questions - Dream Weaver KEB435 Kambrook

How do I wash my Kambrook Dream Weaver electric blanket?

Unplug the blanket and detach the controller. Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold or lukewarm water (max 30°C). Use mild detergent. Do not bleach or iron. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Reattach controller only when fully dry.

Can I leave the electric blanket on all night?

Yes, the Dream Weaver KEB435 has an adjustable auto shut-off timer from 1 to 9 hours. You can set it to run for the desired duration. For safety, the blanket will automatically turn off after the set time.

What are the heat settings and how do I use them?

The controller has 6 positions: 0 (off), 1 (low), 2, 3, 4, and 5 (high) plus a preheat function. Press the power button to cycle through settings. The preheat heats the blanket quickly for 30 minutes before dropping to a selected setting.

Is the electric blanket safe for people with sensitive skin?

Yes, the blanket is made from soft polyester fleece and meets safety standards. However, if you have very sensitive skin, we recommend using a thin sheet between you and the blanket. The controller also has an overheat protection feature.

Can I use this blanket on a memory foam mattress?

Yes, the blanket is designed for standard mattresses up to 45 cm deep. Place it directly over the mattress, then your fitted sheet. The gentle heat is safe for memory foam, but avoid using the highest setting continuously.

What does the auto shut-off timer do?

The timer allows you to set the blanket to turn off automatically after 1 to 9 hours. Press the timer button to cycle through hours. This feature saves energy and provides peace of mind if you fall asleep.

Can I use the blanket with a heated mattress pad?

It is not recommended to use another heated product under or on top of this electric blanket, as it may cause overheating. Use only one heating device at a time.

What should I do if the controller shows an error?

First, unplug the blanket and check all connections. If the error persists, try resetting the controller by pressing the power button for 5 seconds. If still not working, contact Kambrook customer service for a replacement controller.

How long is the power cord?

The power cord is approximately 2.5 meters (8.2 feet) long, allowing flexibility in placement near an outlet.

Can I store the blanket folded?

Yes, but avoid sharp creases that may damage the wiring. Roll the blanket loosely or fold it gently. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not store with heavy items on top.

NOTE: The heated blanket must not be wider than the mattress with which it is to be used such that the heating wire hangs over the sides of the mattress. It is normal for a small section of the fitted skirt to be showing on top of a larger sized mattress.

No heating wire must be trapped or tucked into any part of the bed. Ensure the elastic of the fitted skirt is completely tucked under the entire mattress and secure.

NOTE: Ensure that the blanket is stretched completely flat when placed on the mattress and creases or rucking is not evident.

CAUTION: No heating wire must be trapped or tucked into any part of the bed.

When fitted to the mattress correctly, the controller socket(s) should be positioned at the top end of the mattress, near occupants shoulder area (See Fig.2).

Fixing The Removable Cover (For KEB535 Model only)

Ensure the heated blanket is correctly fitted to the mattress before fitting the removable cover (if applicable).

When fixing the removable cover to the heated blanket, ensure the fleecy side of the cover is facing upwards.

Secure the removable cover to the heated blanket using the studs provided. Ensure all studs are fastened to prevent the cover from moving.

No other cover other than that supplied with the blanket should be used with the heated blanket.

Storing Your Controller(s)

Remove the controller(s) when laundering your blanket. Store your controller(s) during summer months while your blanket remains on the bed as a comfortable under blanket.

Dual Control Units

Your Double/Queen/King size heated blanket features two controllers for individual left and right side heating comfort.

Turning Your Fitted Heated Blanket On

Ensure the heated blanket controller is switched to the 'OFF' position. Plug the cord into a 230V or 240V power outlet and switch the power on.

The Dream Collection heated blanket range has 3 heat settings and features an easy to use slide control (See Fig. 6).

HIGH MCD LOW CPX Fig. 6

To switch the blanket on, move the switch in an upward direction to the desired 'LOW', 'MED' or 'HIGH' temperature setting. The On/Off indicator light will illuminate while the heated blanket is 'ON' in any of the three heat settings.

The 3 settings allows you to choose the right balance of heat depending on your personal requirements:

- LOW

- MEDIUM

- HIGH (recommended for preheating only)

NOTE: Use the HIGH heat setting to preheat only.

Turning Your Fitted Heated Blanket Off

To switch the blanket off, slide the switch to the 'OFF' setting. The On/Off indicator light will not illuminate when the heated blanket is 'OFF'.

NOTE: On initial use, it is recommended that the blanket be set on HIGH for 3 hours before sleeping on the bed.

This will assist in drying out any moisture which has been accumulated in the mattress.

You may notice an odour when using the heated blanket for the first time due to the insulation material. This is harmless and will subside quickly.

It is not recommended that you sleep with the heated blanket switched on. Should you choose to leave your blanket on all night, however, the 'LOW' heat setting should be used.
