4.5 Automatic switch-back
NOTE
This electric underblanket features an automatic switch-back for safety purposes. Temperature settings 9, 8 and 7 are
automatically switched to temperature setting 6 after 3 hours.
4.6 Selecting the automatic switch-off time
Press the button to set the automatic switch-off time. You can set the automatic switch-off time as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. or 12 hours.
NOTE
Switching sequence of the automatic switch-off time:
1 h – 12 h – 11 h – 10 h – 9 h etc. 1 h – 12 h – 11 h etc. (time in hours).
If the time remaining is under an hour it is shown in minutes (e.g. 59 min.)
The electric underblanket is automatically switched off once the set switch-off time has elapsed. The following is then shown in the
display:
Temperature setting for body area: 0
Temperature setting for foot area: 0
Automatic switch-off time: "0 min" flashes
To switch on the electric underblanket again, press either the button to set the temperature setting of the body area or of the foot
area.
If you do not want to use the electric underblanket beyond the selected switch-off time, slide the ON/OFF switch to the OFF (0)
position to switch off the electric underblanket.
4.7 Switching off
Set the ON/OFF slider to the OFF (0) position to switch off the electric underblanket. After switching off the temperature setting is
not illuminated anymore.
NOTE
If the electric underblanket won't be used for several days, set the slider for ON/OFF and temperature settings to the OFF (0)
position and remove the mains plug from the socket.
4.8 ECO control
Temperature settings 1, 2, 3 and 4 are particularly energy-efficient. If these temperature settings have been selected, the "ECO"
symbol is shown in the display.
4.9 kWh display
Press the "kWh" button to display the current power consumption in kWh. The power consumed since the last switch-on is displayed.
Due to the low power consumption in the "ECO" temperature settings, the displayed value (power consumption in kWh) takes a while
to change. If both zones are set to temperature setting '9', it will take approx. 8 minutes for the display to change from 0.00 kWh to
0.01 kWh.
NOTE
A healty sleeping environment can be achieved by keeping the bedroom cool and pre-heating your bed shortly before going
to bed. Lower heating costs for the bedroom also create further cost savings.
4.10 Anti-allergy temperature setting
Useful information
In recent years, the number of people allergic to domestic dust has risen sharply. Typical symptoms of this allergy are irritated eyes,
sneezing fits, coughing fits and shortness of breath in the early morning. These reactions are triggered by proteins in the excrement of
the house dust mite. Mites are almost always present in warm and humid microclimates, as are often found in beds. They feed mainly
on human skin scales and mildew and can be found in every house. Even with regular and thorough cleaning, dust and skin cells
continuously build up.
With the anti-allergy temperature setting, you can fight back against the mite population and create a dry, mildew-free bed
environment. For this, set the body and foot area temperatures to level 9 and the automatic switch-off time to 12 hours. "Anti-Allergy"
is shown in the display. In order to prevent heat being lost, the electric underblanket must be completely covered by the duvet for
this process.
This process dries out your mattress and thereby creates a hostile microclimate for the mites. We recommend regular use of the
anti-allergy temperature setting. Ideally, the electric underblanket should be operated for the full 12 hours.
