The electrical and magnetic fields emitted by this electric overblanket 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.

0.1 millitesla. Please consult your doctor and the manufacturer of

your pacemaker before using this electric overblanket.

• When this electric overblanket is switched on – do not place any objects on it (e.g. suitcase or washing basket) – Heat sources, such as hot water bottles, heating pads or similar, must not be placed on the pad.

CAUTION This electric overblanket is only designed to warm up the human body. The electric overblanket is shaped so that it can be worn as a cape. The dark surface of the overblanket/cape must face towards the body. The electric cape can be closed using poppers at the front. There are also further poppers in the area of each arm to ensure a better fit to the body (see image).

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

lease note that, for safety reasons, the electric overblanket 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 overblanket with another controller of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch-off via the controller safety system.

First, connect the controller to the electric overblanket by inserting the plug-in coupling.

Then plug the mains plug into the socket.

To switch the electric overblanket 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 WARNING If the electric overblanket is being used over several hours, we recom

mend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the controller to avoid overheating the person using the blanket.14 NOTE The fastest way to warm up the electric overblanket is to initially set the highest temperature setting.

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

4.6 Automatic switch-off

This electric overblanket switches off automatically after 3 hours. Once the electric overblanket has switched off, it is no longer heated and the indicator lamp flashes. To switch on the electric overblanket 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.

5. Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING Before cleaning, always remove the mains plug from the socket first. Then disconnect the controller from the electric overblanket by unplugging the plug-in coupling. Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock. CAUTION

• The controller must never come into contact with water or other liquids, as this may cause damage. To clean the controller, use a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents. Small marks on the electric overblanket 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 electric overblanket may not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put through a mangle or ironed. 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 manufacturer’s instructions. CAUTION

Please note that frequent washing of the electric overblanket has a negative effect on the product. The electric overblanket should therefore be washed in a washing machine a maximum of 5 times during its life. Immediately after washing, reshape the electric overblanket 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 electric overblanket to the clothes horse. Failure to do so may damage the electric overblanket.

• Do not reconnect the controller to the electric overblanket until the plug-in connector and electric overblanket are completely dry. Failure to do so may damage the electric overblanket.15 WARNING

• Never switch the electric overblanket on to dry it! Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.

If you do not plan to use the electric overblanket for a long period of time, we recommend that you store it in the original packaging. For this purpose, disconnect the controller from the electric overblanket by unplug

ging the plug-in coupling. CAUTION Allow the electric overblanket to cool down before folding. Otherwise the electric overblanket may be damaged. Do not crease the electric overblanket by placing items on top of it during storage.

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). If you have any questions, please contact the local authorities responsible for waste disposal.
