OBH Nordica RELIEF, Instruction Manual

Warning! The heating pad should not be used by small children, unless
the on/off button has been set by a grown-up or if the child has been
thoroughly instructed in the use of the on/off button. Never let children
use the heating pad without supervision. Children are not always able
to understand potential risks. Teach children a responsible handling of
the heating pad.
Automatic switch-off
The heating pad switches off automatically, when it has been activated
continuously for about 90 minutes (±10 min.). The signal lamp of the chosen
temperature is flashing to indicate that the heating pad has been switched off
automatically. In order to restart the heating pad, push the on/off button to 0
and choose the optional setting.
Note!
If you use the heating pad continuously for a long period of time, this
might cause skin burns that will show at a later stage. Therefore, never
use the heating pad for more than 90 minutes without a pause!
Cleaning and maintenance
Unplug from the wall outlet and let the heating pad cool for at least 10 minutes
before cleaning.
Always dismantle the removable switch and the cord before cleaning. To do so,
press the buttons at both sides of the coupling at the underside of the heating
pad and unplug at the same time. You can hand wash the heating pad or put it
in a washing machine (“sensitive” programme) at 40°C. The heating pad should
only be washed if very dirty and not more than 2-3 times a year as all washing
will wear out the product. Stains and dirt can be removed by using a humid
sponge and a little mild detergent. Note that the heating pad must not be dry-
cleaned.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that the switch of the cord does not get in contact with water
or any other liquid.
If you hand wash the heating pad, press the heating pad carefully into the
water with a little washing powder to remove the spots. Next, rinse the heating
pad in clean water to remove all washing powder.
Let the heating pad drip dry after washing. Never twist the heating pad or
use a tumble dryer. Never mangle or iron the heating pad. Never - under
any circumstances - switch on the heating pad in order to dry it. Position
the heating pad on a stable surface for drying. Do not fasten it by means
of clothes-pegs or similar. Do not use the heating pad until it has dried
completely. If not, the safety system will be activated and the heating pad will
be switched off.
