5. Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING
Before cleaning, always remove the mains plug from the socket first. Then disconnect the control from
the heated overblanket by unplugging the plugin 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, lintfree cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents.
• Small marks on the heated overblanket can be removed with a damp cloth or sponge and, if necessary,
with a little liquid detergent for delicate laundry.
CAUTION
Please note that the heated overblanket may not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put
through a mangle or ironed.
• This heated overblanket is machinewashable.
• 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 manufacturers instructions.
CAUTION
Please note that frequent washing of the heated overblanket has a negative effect on the product.
The heated overblanket should therefore be washed in a washing machine a maximum of 5 times
during its life.
• Immediately after washing, reshape the heated overblanket to its original dimensions while it is still wet
and spread it out flat over a clothes horse to dry.
CAUTION
• Do not use pegs or similar items to attach the heated overblanket to the clothes horse. Failure to
do so may damage the heated overblanket.
• Do not reconnect the control to the heated overblanket until the plugin connector and electric
overblanket are completely dry. Failure to do so may damage the heated overblanket.
WARNING
Never switch the heated overblanket on to dry it! Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.
6. Storage
If you do not plan to use the heated overblanket for a long period of time, we recommend that you store it in
the original packaging. For this purpose, disconnect the control from the heated overblanket by unplugging
the plugin coupling.
CAUTION
Allow the heated overblanket to cool down before folding. Otherwise
•
the heated overblanket may be damaged.
Do not crease the heated overblanket by placing items on top of it
•
during storage.
