Should your electric blanket fail to heat, check
the following:
1. Check that the controls are properly
connected to the blanket and clicked
securely into position. If you find the
control connector plug is not properly
fitted to the blanket, switch the power off
at the power outlet, securely attach the
control connector plug to the blanket, and
then switch the power back on. The timer
indicator light should not flash once the
power is reconnected. If the timer light
flashes once the power is reconnected,
the control connector plug is not properly
fitted.
2. Check that the power cord is connected to
the power outlet and the power is switched
on.
3. Check that the control slide switch is in
either the 75 minute or 12 hour position.
