WARNING

• Non-observance of the following notes may result in personal injury or material damage (electric shock, skin burns, fire). The following 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 heat pad 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 illness or scarred tissue in the application area, after taking pain relief medication or alcohol).
• 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.

- 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 or have been instructed on how to use the heat pad safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

- If the heat pad is being used over several hours, we recommend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the control to avoid overheating the heated body part, which may lead to burns to the skin.

• Children must not play with the heat pad.

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

- This heat pad is not designed for use in hospitals.

- This heat pad is only intended for domestic/private use, not for commercial use.

- Do not insert needles.

- Do not use when folded or bunched up.

- Do not use if wet.

- This heat pad may only be used in conjunction with the control specified on the label.

- This heat pad must only be connected to the mains voltage that is 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.

- If they 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 the heat pad. The user must ensure that excess lengths of cable, and cables in general, are safely routed.

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

• If the mains connection cable of this heat pad is damaged, it must be disposed of. If it cannot be removed, the heat pad must be disposed of.
• Do not expose control and cables to direct sunlight. Otherwise the heat pad may get damaged.
• When this heat pad 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 heat pad is in use. For this reason, the control must never be covered or placed on the heat pad when it is in use.
• Allow the heat pad to cool down before storing it away. Otherwise the heat pad may get damaged.
• To avoid any creasing in the heat pad, do not place any objects on top of it while it is being stored. Otherwise the heat pad may get damaged.
• 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 our Customer Services department.

3. Intended use

CAUTION

This heating pad is only designed to warm up the human body.

4. Operation

4.1 Safety

CAUTION

• The heating pad is fitted with a SAFETY SYSTEM. This sensor technology provides protection against overheating across the entire surface of the heating pad with an automatic switch-off in the event of a fault. If the SAFETY SYSTEM has switched off the heat pad, the indicator lamp (4) is no longer illuminated, even when the heat pad is switched on.
• Please note that for safety reasons, the heating pad can no longer be operated after a fault has occurred and must be sent to the specified service address.
• Do not connect the defective heat pad with another control of the same type. This would trigger a permanent switch-off via the control safety system.

4.2 Initial use

CAUTION

Ensure that the heating pad will not bunch up or become folded during use.

• First, connect the control to the heating pad by inserting the plug-in coupling.
• Then plug the mains plug into the socket.

The exclusive shape of this heating pad was developed specifically for use on the shoulders and neck. Position the heating pad on the shoulders and pull the ends over the chest. Press both ends of the heat pad against each other so that the press stud clicks into place. For a tighter fit, the alternative press studs can be used. To remove the heat pad, unfasten the press stud or press studs.

4.3 Switching on

To switch the heating pad 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

Level 2-5: individual heat

Level 6: maximum heat

NOTE

The fastest way to warm up the heating pad is to initially set the highest temperature setting.

NOTE

These heating pads have a fast heating function, which allows the pad to warm up faster in the first 10 minutes.

WARNING

If the heating pad is being used over several hours, we recommend that you set the lowest temperature setting on the control to avoid overheating the heated body part, which may lead to burns to the skin.

4.5 Automatic switch-off

This heating pad is equipped with an automatic switch-off function. This turns off the heat supply approx. 90 minutes after the initial use of the heating pad. The indicator lamp (4) then begins to flash. So that the heating pad can be switched back on, the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings (5) must first be set to setting "0" (OFF). After about 5 seconds it is possible to switch it on again.

4.6 Switching off

To switch the heating pad off, set the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting "0" (OFF). When it is switched off, the indicator lamp (4) no longer lights up.

NOTE:

If the heating pad is not in use, switch the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting "0" (OFF) and unplug the mains plug (1) from the socket. Then disconnect the control (3) from the heating pad by unplugging the plug-in coupling (6).

5. Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING

Before cleaning, always remove the mains plug from the socket first. Then disconnect the control from the heating pad 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 heating pad can be removed with a damp cloth and if necessary, with a little liquid detergent for delicate laundry.

CAUTION

Please note that the heating pad may not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put through a mangle or ironed. Otherwise the heating pad may be damaged.

- This heating pad 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 manufacturer's instructions.

- Immediately after washing, reshape the heating pad to its original dimensions while it is still damp and spread it out flat on a clothes horse to dry.

CAUTION

- Do not use pegs or similar items to attach the heating pad to the clothes horse. Otherwise the heating pad may be damaged.

- Do not reconnect the control to the heating pad until the plug-in connection and the heating pad are completely dry. Otherwise the heating pad may be damaged.

WARNING

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

6. Storage

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