•
At normal ambient temperature, you should allow approximately 30-
60 minutes on heat settin
g ‘9’.
•
You may get into bed while the blanket is still warming up, but
please do not leave the blanket setting on ‘9’ when you are in bed
as this is intended to be a preheat setting.
•
A cold room or bed that has not been used for some time may
require a greater length of time to preheat.
Electrical Field Effect
•
When using the blanket, you may feel a tingling sensation. This is
known as an ‘electric field effect’ and happens throughout all
brands of electric blanket.
•
It is caused by an electromagnetic field (EMF) and some people are
more susceptible to feeling it than others. It is no cause for concern
and is not an electric shock.
Overheat Protection System
• The blanket is fitted with numerous overheat safeguard systems.
This offers protection against overheating or damage to the
elements by disengaging the power to the elements before
overheating hazards occur.
• Should there ever be a problem with the heating element in the
blanket, it will automatically close down the operation and the
blanket will turn off.
• The controller must not be covered. The controller has built-in
protection, so that if the controller overheats or the heating element
is damaged, it will automatically close down the operation
permanently.
• Keep the controller away from external heat sources.
