Operating Your Electric Blanket

NOTE: When lying on the blanket some people may experience a tingling sensation whether alone or when touching someone else lying on the Blanket.

This is no cause for concern and is in not an electric shock.

STORING YOUR ELECTRIC BLANKET

Your Electric Blanket can remain on the bed all year round as a comfortable under-blanket. Simply remove the controls and store until Winter.
