Important … / Safety system / Special characteristics / Preparations for use
· do not place any object, such as a case or a
washing basket on the electric underblanket
while it is switched on,
· do not place any source of heat, such as a
hot-water bottle or the like on the electric
underblanket while it is switched on.
Otherwise the electric underblanket could be
damaged.
Do not cover the control unit 1 and do not
place it on the electric underblanket when it is
in use. The electronic components in the electric
underblanket's control unit
1 cause the control
unit 1 to heat up slightly during operation.
Safety system
Note: The electric underblanket is fitted with a
safety system. Its electronic sensor system prevents
the electric underblanket from overheating over its
full area by switching it off automatically in the event
of a fault. If the safety system switches the electric
underblanket off automatically due to a fault, then
the function indicator
2 on the control unit 1
ceases to illuminate, even if the electric underblanket
is switched on.
Please note that, for safety reasons, the electric
underblanket must not be used in the event of
a fault and must be sent to the service centre
address given below.
Special characteristics
This electric underblanket has been provided with an
especially soft and hygienic soft nonwoven fabric.
The fibres on the top side (see Fig. B) of the electric
underblanket have been treated with silver particles.
This treatment strongly reduces formation of odours
and bacteria. The textiles used in this electric under-
blanket meet the high human ecological safety
requirements of the Öko-Tex Standard 100 as proven
in tests at the Hohenstein Research Institute. You
may wash the electric underblanket as described;
the silver particles will not wash out.
Preparations for use
Placing the electric
underblanket
Starting at the foot end, spread out the electric
underblanket (top, see Fig. B) over the mattress.
The plug-in connector
5 on the electric under-
blanket should be towards the head end
(see Fig. C).
Then place the bottom sheet as usual over
the electric underblanket, so that the electric
underblanket lies between the mattress and
the bottom sheet.
Ensure that the electric underblanket is com-
pletely flat and that it does not become drawn
together or folded during use.
Switch the electric underblanket on approxi-
mately 30 minutes before going to bed and
cover it with the top sheet and other bedding.
By doing this you will keep all the heat in.
Switching on / off / Selecting
the temperature
First connect the control unit 1 to the electric
underblanket by plugging the two parts of the
plug-in connector
5 together (see Fig. D).
Switching on:
Using the temperature setting switch 3 on the
control unit 1 , set the temperature to setting
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 to switch on the electric under-
blanket. The function indicator
2 illuminates.
Switching off:
Using the temperature setting switch 3 on the
control unit 1 , set the temperature to setting 0
to switch off the electric underblanket. The
function indicator
2 ceases to illuminate.
Selecting the temperature:
This electric underblanket has a rapid heat-up
feature.
