FITTING THE BLANKET
The electric blanket should be securely fastened to your mattress. If it is fully fitted with fabric side walls, ensure that all corners have covered the mattress evenly. If it is a tie down electric blanket, make sure it is securely tied down in each corner.
The control/s should be closest to the end nearing the pillow.
If you are using a mattress protector, place it over the electric blanket.
Only use a size suitable for the size of your mattress.
Once the electric blanket is securely fitted to your mattress, connect the plug to the nearest power source and switch on. Ensure that the hand controls are not tucked in to the sides, and are not exposed to moisture.
Only use the controller model type as specified at the back of this manual.
OVERHEATING
All electric blankets are fitted with our Overheating Safeguard System. This offers protection against overheating or damage to the element by disengaging the power to the heating element before any hazards may occur.
If the product is misused against the instructions provided, the warranty will be voided.
CHECK DAILY THAT YOUR ELECTRIC BLANKET IS FLAT, FULLY SPREAD OUT AND SECURED BEFORE SWITCHING ON.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL CAUSE OVERHEATING.
This will activate our Overheating Safeguard System, or leave the electric blanket inoperative, voiding all warranties.
Do not be concerned if you notice a blue flash in the switch when it is moved from one setting to another. This is NOT dangerous and is only the copper parts making contact.

BEFORE USE
When using your electric blanket for the first time, set the body and foot temperatures to 9, and time to 5 hours. Leave the electric blanket to heat and time out on its own.
This process will remove any humidity in the cover and alleviate any odours present from the manufacturing process. Continual use thereafter will then eradicate any odour (if present).
TIMER SETTINGS
The “Timer” button can be used to set the operation time, the electric blanket will automatically switch off once it reaches this time. Keep pressing the “Timer” button until it reaches the desired operation time. If the timer has not been set, the standard operation time is 1 hour.
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
Turn the On/Off switch to the “On” position.
To set the temperature in the body section, press the button “Body”. To set the temperature in the feet section, press the button “Feet”.
The temperature settings can be changed by pressing the buttons again turning it to the desired setting (0-9).
It is recommended that the electric blanket is turned on to setting 9, 1-2 hours prior to going to bed, and the setting is lowered or switched off completely when going to bed.
Warning – The highest temperature setting (9) is for preheating only and not recommended for continuous operation.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
