Safety
IMPORTANT
The heat pad is fitted with a SAFETY SWITCH-OFF function. The SAFETY SWITCH-OFF stops the
heat pad overheating by automatically switching it off in the event of a fault. Once the SAFETY
SWITCH-OFF has taken place, the On/Off button (2) on the heat pad and the white LED display on
the powerbank (4) remain illuminated. After cooling, the heat pad switches on again automatically.
Charging the powerbank
IMPORTANT
Before you begin charging the powerbank (4), please note the information in section 2 “Important
instructions”.
The powerbank must be charged fully prior to initial use or if the device has not been used for a long
period. If the powerbank is completely run down, the charging process will take approx. 4.5 hours
until it is fully charged again. To charge the powerbank fully, proceed as follows:
– Insert the charging cable (7) provided into the connection socket of the powerbank.
– Connect the other end of the charging cable to a USB charger via the USB port (USB charger with 5V / 1A
SELV in accordance with the requirements of IEC/EN 60335, not included). Whilst charging, the LED display
on the powerbank flashes white.
– The flashing sequence of the white LED display on the powerbank indicates the charging status of the
powerbank when charging and running down:
1 x flash: 0 - 25%
2 x flash: 26 - 50%
3 x flash: 51 - 75%
4 x flash: 76 - 99%
Permanently lit up: 100%
– As soon as the LED display on the powerbank lights up permanently white, the powerbank is fully charged
(after approx. 4.5 hours from empty).
– The white LED display on the powerbank goes out shortly after the powerbank has been disconnected
from the USB charger.
– The powerbank should be charged at least once a year to retain its capacity.
– Do not cover the powerbank with covers, cushions or similar during the charging process in order to
prevent overheating.
– Only charge the powerbank in a dry environment and at normal room temperature.
Charging a smartphone via powerbank
The powerbank can be used for more than just operating
the heat pad – it can also be used to charge the battery of a
smartphone. To charge your smartphone using the power-
bank, proceed as follows:
• Connect the powerbank to your smartphone using the
original USB charging cable from your smartphone manu-
facturer.
