OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: This electric heating pad has a
safety device that controls the temperature by
switching the appliance on and off at regular
intervals.
To guarantee user safety, the temperature of
the heating pad is the maximum permitted by
current IEC standards
The appliance provides gentle, harmless heat.
Operating mode:
The UFESA heating pad has
4 settings:
0 Off
1 minimum temperature
2 intermediate temperature
3 maximum temperature
Make sure that the control is set to 0 before plu-
gging it in and switching on.
For rapid heating turn the control to position 3,
after a few minutes the heating pad will have
reached a pleasant temperature.
Place it on the part of the body you wish to
heat and select the desired temperature. Do
not use it to warm animals.
For the best heating results, keep the heating
pad covered so that none of the heat is lost
while the appliance switches on and off.
