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 heating pad, the temperature settings are no longer
illuminated when 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 controller of the same type. This would trigger a
permanent switch-off via the controller safety system.

4.2 Initial use

CAUTION
Ensure that the heating pad will not bunch up or become folded during use.
• First, connect the controller to the heating pad by inserting the plug-in coupling.
• Then plug the mains plug into the socket.
• Place the heating pad on your stomach or back. Subsequently guide the long, elastic rubber strap around
the body and secure the heating pad by closing the hook-and-loop fastener.

4.3 Switching on

To switch the heating pad on, set the sliding switch for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting 1, 2 or 3.
The temperature settings (4) are illuminated when switched on.

4.4 Setting the temperature

Level 0: OFF
Level 1: minimum heat
Level 2: medium heat
Level 3: 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 controller to avoid
overheating the heated body part, which may lead to burns to the skin.
