microwave heatpad for pets
INSTRUCTIONS
for the SNUGGLESAFE microwave heatpad for pets
Read carefully before use; keep safely so that they are always available for
reference
BEFORE YOU START
SnuggleSafe is for use in domestic microwaves only (max 1,500 watts).
Make sure that functions such as grilling, browning, combi, convection (if available on
your microwave) are switched off. Make sure your oven interior is clean, especially the
turntable. Food and drink residue can affect the heating performance of the heatpad and
could result in overheating. Do not heat more than one SnuggleSafe at a time.
HEATING YOUR SNUGGLESAFE.
You can heat SnuggleSafe with its cover on or off.
1. Place SnuggleSafe on your microwave turntable, select full power and set timer
according to the chart. If your microwave does not have a turntable, we
recommend that you heat SnuggleSafe for 50% (half) of its recommended time,
then turn it over (flip) and heat for the remaining time. This will ensure that it is
heated as evenly as possible. Turn the microwave off whilst you flip the
SnuggleSafe.

2. When you have selected the correct time, start the timer.
3. When the timer has finished, leave the SnuggleSafe in the microwave for another
minute. During this extra minute, the SnuggleSafe will continue to heat up, even
though the power is off. After this extra minute, the temperature of SnuggleSafe
will have stabilized.
4. Before removing from the microwave, visually check that you have not
accidentally overheated the bottle (see Safety Warning overleaf). When satisfied
that the bottle has not been overheated, remove it from the microwave.
CAUTION:
The bottle will be hot. If not in its cover, you should use a cloth or
oven- glove to handle it.
DO NOT USE WITH UNCONCIOUSE OR ANEATHESTISED ANIMALS
5. Place SnuggleSafe under your pet’s bedding or under a loose blanket. If a cover
is fitted to the heatpad, it is not necessary to place it under bedding, but you must
ensure that your pet cannot touch the heatpad’s surface which will be hot.
Ideally, there should be good insulation under SnuggleSafe, as this will help to
reduce heat loss downwards, thereby extending the heat output.
6. Do not place an uncovered SnuggleSafe in direct contact with your pet’s body as
this might cause skin burns in some circumstances.
Do not use with any animal
that is unconscious or otherwise unable to react to thermal discomfort.
RE-HEATING SNUGGLESAFE
Allow SnuggleSafe to completely cool down before re-heating.
CLEANING
Clean SnuggleSafe by wiping with a damp cloth or spraying lightly with disinfectant
and wiping dry. Do not use abrasive substances or scourers.
