Do not pull, twist or kink the cables.
The heating pad may otherwise
be damaged.
Frequently check the heating pad
for wear or damage. If signs
thereof are detected, the heating
pad was used improperly or will
no longer heat up, it must first be
inspected by the manufacturer
before being switched on again.
If the power cord of the heating
pad is damaged, it must be re-
placed by the manufacturer or
its service department, or a simi-
larly qualified person, to avoid
hazards.
With the heating pad switched
on, never
– place objects on it (e.g. suitcases
or clothes baskets),
– place a heating source such
as a hot-water bottle, heating
pad or similar items on it. The
heating pad may otherwise be
damaged.
The electronic components inside
the control unit will heat up whilst
operating the heating pad. For
this reason, the control unit must
not be covered or be lying on the
heating pad during operation.
This poses a risk of injuries and /
or damage to the heating pad.
Always observe the information
on start-up, cleaning and care,
and storage.

Safety system
Note:
The heating pad is equipped with a safety
system. The electronic sensor technology prevents the
entire surface of the heating pad from overheating
by automatically switching off in the event of a fault.
If the safety system switches the heating pad off au-
tomatically due to a fault, then the function display
2
on the control unit
1
is no longer illuminated, even
if the heating pad is switched on.
Please note that, for safety reasons, the heating
pad must not be used after a fault and must be
returned to the service address indicated.
