4.6 Switching off
To switch the heating pad off, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to setting "0" (OFF). The
temperature settings are then no longer illuminated.
NOTE:
If the heating pad is not in use, switch the side slider for ON/OFF to setting "0" (OFF) and unplug the
power plug from the socket. Then disconnect the controller from the heating pad by unplugging the
plugin coupling.
5. Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING
Before cleaning, always remove the power plug from the socket first. Then disconnect the control
from the heating pad by unplugging the plugin coupling. Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.
CAUTION
The control must never come into contact with water or other liquids, as this may cause damage.
• To clean the control, use a dry, lintfree cloth. Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaning agents.
• Small marks on the heating pad can be removed with a damp cloth and if necessary, with a little liquid
detergent for delicate laundry.
CAUTION
Please note that the heating pad may not be chemically cleaned, wrung out, tumble dried, put through
a mangle or ironed.
• This heating pad is machinewashable.
• Set the washing machine to a particularly gentle wash cycle at 30 °C (wool cycle). Use a delicate laundry
detergent and measure it out according to the manufacturer's instructions.
CAUTION
Please note that frequent washing of the heating pad has a negative effect on the product. The heating
pad should therefore be washed in a washing machine a maximum of 10 times during its life.
• Immediately after washing, reshape the heating pad to its original dimensions while it is still damp and
spread it out flat on a clothes horse to dry.
CAUTION
• Do not use pegs or similar items to attach the heating pad to the clothes horse. Otherwise the
heating pad may be damaged.
• Do not reconnect the control to the heating pad until the plugin connection and the heating pad
are completely dry. Otherwise the heating pad may be damaged.
WARNING
Never switch the heating pad on to dry it! Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.
