• Non-observance of the following instructions may result in personal injury or material damage (electric shock, skin burns, fire). The follow

ing safety and hazard information is not only intended to protect your health and the health of others, it should also protect the product. For this reason, pay attention to these safety notes and include these instructions when handing over the product to others.

• This heated throw must not be used by persons who are not sensitive to heat or by other vulnerable persons who may not be able to react to overheating (e.g. diabetics, people with skin alterations due to ill

ness or scarred tissue in the application area, after taking pain relief medication or alcohol).

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

• The heated throw 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.

• This heated throw 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 or have been instructed on how to use the heated throw safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

• Children must not play with the heated throw.

• Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children unless supervised.

• This heated throw is not designed for use in hospitals.

• This heated throw is only intended for domestic/private use, not for commercial use.

• Do not use folded or rucked.

• This heated throw may only be used in conjunction with the control specified on the label.

• The heated throw must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the label.12

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

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

• If the cable and control 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 of this heated throw. The user must ensure that excess lengths of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.

• Please check this heated throw frequently for signs of wear and tear or damage. If any such signs are evident, if the heated throw 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 throw (including the accessories) yourself because faultless functionality can no longer be guaranteed thereafter. Failure to observe this will invalidate the guarantee.

• If the mains connection cable of this heated throw is damaged, it must be disposed of. If it cannot be removed, the heated throw must be disposed of.

• Do not expose control and cables to direct sunlight.

• When this heated throw is switched on: – Do not place any sharp objects on it. – Do not place any heat sources, such as hot water bottles, heat pads or similar, on it.

• The electronic components in the control warm up when the heated throw is in use. For this reason, the control must never be covered or placed on the heated throw when it is in use.

• It is essential to observe the information relating to the following chapters: Operation, Cleaning and maintenance, Storage.

• If you should have any questions about using our devices, please contact Customer Services.

CAUTION This heated throw is only designed to warm up the human body.13

• The heated throw is fitted with the SAFETY SYSTEM. This electronic sensor technology provides protection against overheating across the entire surface of the heated throw with an automatic switch-off if there is a fault.

• Please note that, for safety reasons, the heated throw can no longer be operated after a fault has occurred and must be sent to the specified service address.

Do not connect the defective heated throw with another control of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch-off via the control safety system.

• First, connect the control to the heated throw by inserting the plug-in coupling.

• Then plug the mains plug into the socket.

To switch the heated throw on, set the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. When it is switched on, the indicator lamp (4) lights up.

4.4 Setting the temperature

Level 0: OFF Level 1: minimum heat Setting 2 - 5: individual heat setting Level 6: maximum heat NOTE The fastest way to warm up the heated throw is to initially set the highest temperature setting. WARNING If the heated throw is being used over several hours, we recommend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the control to avoid the body overheating and thereby any potential burns to the skin or heat stroke.

4.5 Automatic switch-off

This heated throw switches off automatically after 3 hours. Once the heated throw has switched off, it is no longer heated and the indicator lamp flashes. To switch on the heated throw again, first set the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the OFF ( 0 ) position for 5 seconds. After about 5 seconds it is possible to switch it on again.

To switch off the heated throw, slide the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the OFF ( 0 ) position. NOTE If the heated throw is not being used for several days, slide the sliding switch for ON/OFF and tem- perature settings to the OFF ( 0 ) position and remove the mains plug from the socket. Then disconnect the control from the heated throw by unplugging the plug-in coupling.14

5. Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING Before cleaning, always remove the mains plug from the socket first. Then disconnect the control from the heated throw by unplugging the plug-in coupling. Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock. CAUTION The control must never come into contact with water or other liquids, as this may cause damage.

• To clean the control, use a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents.

• Small marks on the heated throw can be removed with a damp cloth or sponge and, if necessary, with a little liquid detergent for delicate laundry. CAUTION Please note that the heated throw may not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put through a mangle or ironed.

• This heated throw is machine-washable.

• Set the washing machine to a particularly gentle wash cycle at 30°C (wool cycle). Use a delicate laundry detergent and measure it out according to the manufacturers instructions. CAUTION Please note that frequent washing of the heated throw has a negative effect on the product. The heated throw should therefore be washed in a washing machine a maximum of 5 times during its life.

Immediately after washing, reshape the heated throw to its original dimensions while it is still wet and spread it out flat over a clothes horse to dry. CAUTION

• Do not use pegs or similar items to attach the heated throw to the clothes horse. Failure to do so may damage the heated throw.

• Do not reconnect the control to the heated throw until the plug-in connector and heated throw are completely dry. Failure to do so may damage the heated throw. WARNING Never switch the heated throw on to dry it! Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.

If you do not plan to use the heated throw for a long period of time, we recommend that you store it in the original packaging. For this purpose, disconnect the control from the heated throw by unplugging the plug- in coupling. CAUTION

Allow the heated throw to cool down before folding. Otherwise the heated throw may be damaged.

Do not crease the heated throw by placing items on top of it during storage.15

For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the device in the household waste at the end of its useful life. Dispose of the unit at a suitable local collection or recycling point. Dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment).
