3. Operation
3.1. Safety
This electric blanket is equipped with a SAFETY SYSTEM. The electronic sensor technology prevents
overheating of the electric blanket over its entire surface with an automatic reduction of the tempera-
ture or with automatic switch-off if a fault occurs. If the electric blanket is automatically switched off
by the safety system due to a fault, then the signal lamp no longer lights up, even when the electric
blanket is switched on. Please note that the electric blanket can no longer be operated if a fault
occurs for safety reasons, and must be sent in to the specified service address.
3.2 Selecting temperature
To operate the the device, first connect the switch to the electric blanket by plugging in the connec-
tor. Plug the power cord into the mains outlet.
The electric blanket heats up most quickly when you initially set the highest temperature level. We
recommend than selecting the lowest temperature level when using the blanket for several hours.
