QUICKGUIDE
3.2 Setting the Temperature
The EickWarm heating mat can be adjusted in
temperature ranges between 35 °C and 45 °C. It has a
timer that switches the heater off automatically after the
time has elapsed. This helps prevent skin sloughing that
can occur when a recumbent animal is left for a long time
on a heat mat without turning.
It is not recommended that the animal is placed directly
onto the Heat Pad. Select the temperature most suitable
for the animal’s requirements. It is important to check the
animal’s temperature at regular intervals to avoid
overheating.
While heat is required, the power supply should not be
interrupted. Press the MODE key until the red temparature
light is illuminated. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select
the required temperature which is displayed in the LED in
°C. Leave plugged all the time heat is required.
3.3 Setting the Time
Press the MODE key until the orange Time light is
illuminated. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the
required time between 1 and 9 hours.
3.4 Operation
Press the START key and the mat will start heating. The
green heating light will be illuminated. When the selected
time has elapsed the green heating light will go off as
will the heating pad. The hours will still be displayed in
the LED. Pressing the START key while the green Heating
light is lit will stop the heating.
1. Important Instructions for Use
This pad is designed to supply a gentle heat to an animal
whilst upon it, with 12 V DC power for patient safety. As
this is only a gentle heat any warmth will dissipate as
soon as it is created, and you may in fact be excused from
thinking it is not operating correctly, especially if you
place your hand on top and can feel no immediate heat. If
you require to test the pad we suggest placing a heavy
object such as a large book on top for approx. 30 minutes
a slight heat will then start to build.
2. Assembly
Remove all packaging. Check the contents. There should
be a pad with control box attached, transformer and
2 flexes – one UK and one European. Join the two jack
plugs from the control box and the transformer. Attach
the appropriate flex to the transformer.
3. Tips for Use
3.1 General
Place the pad where it is to be used making sure it is kept
flat. It is not recommended that the animal is placed
directly onto the Heat Pad. Select the temperature most
suitable for the animal’s requirements. It is important to
check the animal’s temperature at regular intervals to
avoid overheating. Use a light weight material to cover
the mat, this will allow the heat to come through.
Moreover the patient can be covered with a blanket to
avoid heat loss. If used direct on a floor that is
uninsulated such as concrete we suggest placing material
such as a blanket underneath to prevent heat loss
through the floor.
