How does the automatic switch-off feature work?

The heating pad automatically switches off after approximately 90 minutes. The function indicator then starts flashing. To restart, set the control to '0' for about 5 seconds, then select your desired temperature setting again.

Can I wash the heating pad?

Important safety instructions

Failure to comply with the following instructions can cause personal injury or material damage (electric shock, skin burns, fire). The following safety instructions and hazard warnings are not only intended to protect your own health and the health of others, but also to prevent damage to the heating pad. Please observe these safety instructions and pass on this operating manual together with the heating pad.

WARNING! RISK OF FATAL INJURY AND ACCIDENTS FOR INFANTS AND SMALL CHIL-

DREN! Never leave children unsupervised with the packaging materials. Danger of suffocation.

WARNING! DANGER OF ELECTRIC

SHOCK! Do not use the heating pad if it is damp. There is a risk of electric shock.

Do not use the mains power cable for purposes for which it was not intended, e.g. for hanging up the

electric heating pad, carrying it or to pull the plug out of the mains socket. Keep the mains power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. If the mains power cable is damaged or severed, do not touch the mains power cable, but pull the mains plug out of the mains socket immediately. Damaged or tangled mains power cables increase the risk of electric shock.

RISK OF INJURY! The heating pad must be regularly checked for signs of wear or damage. If signs of

wear or damage are detected or if the heating pad has been used improperly, you must cease using the heating pad and return it to your dealer or to his customer service centre. Risk of injury!

DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Do not stick needles or sharp objects into the heating pad. There is a risk of electric shock.

If you use a cardiac pacemaker, please consult your doctor and the manufacturer of the pacemaker

before using this heating pad. The electric and magnetic fields generated by this electric heating pad may under certain circumstances interfere with the operation of cardiac pacemakers. However, the levels are far below the permissible limits: details of these levels can be found in the "Technical data" chapter.

WARNING! Have the heating pad repaired only by qualified specialist personnel using original manufacturer parts only. This will ensure that the heating pad remains safe to use.

WARNING! If the mains power cable of the heating pad is damaged, it has to be replaced by the manufacturer or its service department or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards. Risk of injury!

Children or anyone lacking the knowledge or experience to use the heating pad, or anyone with restricted physical, sensory or mental capacities, must not use the heating pad without supervision or instruction by a person responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the heating pad. Risk of injury!

RISK OF INJURY FROM BURNS! Do not use this heating pad for helpless persons, infants or persons who are insensitive to heat (e.g. diabetics, people with disease-related changes to the skin or scarred skin in the area of use, or after taking pain-relieving medication or consuming alcohol). There is a risk of receiving skin burns.

Safety system / Preparations for use / Cleaning and Care

Do not cover the control 1 and do not place it on the heating pad when the pad is in operation. The electronic components in the control 1 of the heating pad cause the control 1 to heat up slightly during operation.
- Do not pull, twist or crease the cables.

●Safetysystem

Note: the heating pad is equipped with a safety system. The electronic sensor technology prevents the entire surface of the heating pad from overheating by automatically switching off in the event of a fault. If the safety system switches the heating pad off automatically due to a fault, then the function display 2 on the control unit 1 is no longer illuminated, even if the heating pad is switched on.

☐ Please note that, for safety reasons, the heating pad must not be used after a fault and must be returned to the service address indicated.

● Preparations for use

Note: the heating pad may smell of plastic the first time you use it, but this will disappear after a short period of time.

Switching on:

☐ Set Level 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 on the control 1 to switch the heating pad on.

Note: The function display 2 illuminates after the heating pad is switched on.

Note: this heating pad features rapid heating, which allows it to heat up within the first 10 minutes of operation.

Switching off:

☐ Set Level 0 on the control ☐ to switch the heating pad off.

Note: the function display 2 ceases to illuminate.

Selecting the temperature:

☐ Just before using the heating pad, set it to the highest temperature setting (level 6). This will cause the heating pad to warm up quickly.
☐ If you wish to leave the heated pad on for several hours, set the lowest temperature (level 1).

●Temperaturelevels

☐ Set the required temperature level on the control 1 (see fig. A).

Level0:off

Level1:minimumheat
