Electrical requirements
Check that the voltage on the rating
label of your appliance corresponds with
your house electricity supply which must be
A.C. (Alternating Current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not
suitable for the plug supplied with this
appliance, the plug should be removed and
the appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed from
the mains lead, if severed, must be
destroyed as a plug with bared flexible
cord is hazardous if engaged into a live
socket outlet.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug
require changing, a 3 amp BS1362 fuse
must be fitted.
This appliance does not need to be
earthed. It is a double insulated product.
Before use
Before using this appliance ensure that
the voltage indicated on the product
corresponds with the mains voltage in your
home. If you are in any doubt about your
supply, ask your electrical dealer or local
electricity company.
WARNING: Do not attempt to use
the blanket with controls other than
those supplied with the unit.
It is quite normal for the switch to
become warm as the components encased
are part of the protection circuit.
Dual control models
Each side of the blanket has a
completely separate element and each is
supplied with its own independent mains
lead. A 13amp plug on each lead is
essential.
Do not connect both flexible cords to
one 13amp plug.
The two leads should preferably be
plugged into individual sockets. However, if
only one socket is accessible, then a dual
adaptor should be used.
WARNING: Only the electric blanket
should be connected to the dual
adaptor. If you are unsure, please
contact a qualified engineer.
