a fault, the temperature level indicator lamp on the switch is no longer illuminated even when
the anti-allergenic underblanket is switched on. Please note that, after a fault has occurred, the
anti-allergenic underblanket can no longer be used for safety reasons and must be sent to the
service address indicated.
