heating (e.g. diabetics, people with skin alterations due to illness or scarred tissue in the application area, after taking pain relief medica

• This heat pad must not be used by very young children (0 – 3 years old) as they are unable to respond to overheating.

• The heat pad can be used by children older than 3 and younger than 8 years of age provided they are supervised. For this, the control must always be set to the minimum temperature.14

• This heat pad 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 heat pad safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

• Do not use when folded or bunched up.

• This heat pad must only be used in conjunction with the battery pack/powerbank specified on the label.

• The electrical and magnetic fields emitted by this heat pad may interfere with the function of a pacemaker. However, they are still well below the limits: electrical field strength: max. 5000 V/m, magnetic field strength: max. 80 A/m, magnetic flux density: max. 0.1 milli- tesla. Please therefore consult your doctor and the manufacturer of your pacemaker before using this heat pad.

• Do not pull, twist or make sharp bends in the cables.

Please check the heat pad and powerbank frequently for signs of wear and tear or damage. If any such signs are evident or if the heat pad or powerbank have been used incorrectly, they must be checked by the manufacturer before being switched on again.

5. Device description

1 Heat pad 2 On/O button with LED display 3 Connecting cable 4 Powerbank 5 Built-in pocket for powerbank 6 Drawstring 7 Charging cable

Safety IMPORTANT The heat pad is fitted with a SAFETY SWITCH-OFF function. The SAFETY SWITCH-OFF stops the heat pad overheating by automatically switching it off in the event of a fault. Once the SAFETY SWITCH-OFF has taken place, the On/Off button (2) on the heat pad and the white LED display on the powerbank (4) remain illuminated. After cooling, the heat pad switches on again automatically. Charging the powerbank IMPORTANT Before you begin charging the powerbank (4), please note the information in section 2 “Important instructions”. The powerbank must be charged fully prior to initial use or if the device has not been used for a long period. If the powerbank is completely run down, the charging process will take approx. 4.5 hours until it is fully charged again. To charge the powerbank fully, proceed as follows: – Insert the charging cable (7) provided into the connection socket of the powerbank. – Connect the other end of the charging cable to a USB charger via the USB port (USB charger with 5V / 1A SELV in accordance with the requirements of IEC/EN 60335, not included). Whilst charging, the LED display on the powerbank flashes white. – The flashing sequence of the white LED display on the powerbank indicates the charging status of the powerbank when charging and running down: 1 x flash: 0 - 25% 2 x flash: 26 - 50% 3 x flash: 51 - 75% 4 x flash: 76 - 99% Permanently lit up: 100% – As soon as the LED display on the powerbank lights up permanently white, the powerbank is fully charged (after approx. 4.5 hours from empty). – The white LED display on the powerbank goes out shortly after the powerbank has been disconnected from the USB charger. – The powerbank should be charged at least once a year to retain its capacity. – Do not cover the powerbank with covers, cushions or similar during the charging process in order to prevent overheating. – Only charge the powerbank in a dry environment and at normal room temperature. Charging a smartphone via powerbank The powerbank can be used for more than just operating the heat pad – it can also be used to charge the battery of a smartphone. To charge your smartphone using the power- bank, proceed as follows:

• Connect the powerbank to your smartphone using the original USB charging cable from your smartphone manu- facturer.17 Operating the heat pad

• To adjust the size, you can pull on the drawstring (6).

• Place the charged powerbank (4) into the built-in pocket (5) on the heat pad.

• Insert the connector plug of the heat pad's connecting cable (3) into the connection socket on the powerbank. The LED display of the On/Off but

ton (2) on the heat pad briefly lights up white three times. The heat pad is now ready for use. IMPORTANT Ensure that the heat pad will not bunch up or become folded dur- ing use.

• Press the On/Off button (2) to switch on the heat pad (1). The LED display of the On/Off button lights up green (minimum heat). The LED display of the powerbank (4) lights up or flashes white according to the charge status of the powerbank.

• If you press the On/Off button again, the temperature setting will increase (medium heat). The LED display of the On/Off button lights up yellow.

• If you press the On/Off button again, the heat pad switches to the maximum temperature setting (maximum heat). The LED display of the On/Off button lights up red.

• If you press the On/Off button again, the heat pad switches off. The LED display of the On/Off button goes out immediately and the LED display on the powerbank goes out after a few seconds. WARNING If the heat pad is being used over several hours, we recommend that you set the lowest temperature setting to avoid overheating the heated body part, which may lead to burns to the skin. NOTE When the powerbank (4) has been almost completely run down, the heat pad is switched off automatically to protect the powerbank. The powerbank must then be charged. Setting the temperature OFF: On/Off button (2) not lit Setting 1: Minimum heat (LED display of the On/Off button lights up green) Setting 2: Medium heat (LED display of the On/Off button lights up yellow) Setting 3: Maximum heat (LED display of the On/Off button lights up red) Switching off Press the On/Off button (2) to switch off the heat pad (1). The switching sequence is 1 - 2 - 3 - OFF ... If the heat pad is switched off, the LED display of the On/Off button goes out immediately and the LED display on the powerbank (4) goes out after a few seconds. NOTE Please note that the powerbank (4) must be protected against extreme cold to maintain its full performance.18 Automatic switch-off time This heat pad (1) is equipped with an automatic switch-off function. This turns off the heat supply approx. 110 minutes after the initial use. The On/Off button (2) on the heat pad and the white LED display on the powerbank go out. You can switch the heat pad on again immediately by pressing the On/Off button. If it is no longer possible to switch the heat pad on, then the powerbank has been run down.

8. Cleaning and maintenance

• Before cleaning, always first disconnect the powerbank (4) from the heat pad (1). Remove the pow- erbank from the heat pad's pocket. Otherwise there is a risk of damage. IMPORTANT

• The powerbank (4) must never come into contact with water or other liquids as this may cause damage. To clean the powerbank (4), use a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents. IMPORTANT

• Please note that the heat pad (1) must not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put through a mangle or ironed. Otherwise the heat pad may be damaged. This heat pad is machine-washable. To do this, place the connecting cable (3) into the built-in pocket (5) and place the heat pad (1) in a wash bag. Set the washing machine to a particularly gentle wash cycle at 30°C (wool cycle). For ecological reasons, always wash the heat pad (1) together with other textiles. Use a delicate laundry detergent and measure it out according to the manufacturer's instructions. IMPORTANT

• Please note that washing the heat pad (1) too frequently has a negative effect on the product. The heat pad should therefore be washed in a washing machine a maximum of 10 times during its life. Let the heat pad dry flat on a clothes horse. IMPORTANT

• Do not use pegs or similar items to attach the heat pad (1) to the clothes horse, otherwise the heat pad may be damaged.

Only reconnect the heat pad to the powerbank (4) once the heat pad and the connector plug of the connecting cable (3) are completely dry. Otherwise the powerbank and the heat pad could be damaged. Storage If you do not plan to use the heat pad for a long period of time, we recommend that you store it flat and spread out. Always remove the powerbank. Ensure there are no sharp folds in the heat pad at any time. IMPORTANT Please allow the heat pad (1) to cool down before storing, otherwise the heat pad may be damaged. To avoid sharp folds in the heat pad, do not place any heavy objects on top of it while it is being stored.19 IMPORTANT Place the powerbank (4) in a dry, dust-free and cool place, away from direct sunlight. The powerbank should be charged once a year to retain its capacity.
