• Do not pull, twist or make sharp bends in the cables.
• Please check this heating pad frequently for signs of wear and tear or

turer before being switched on again.
• If the mains connection cable of the heating pad is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its customer service department or

be observed:

must not be placed on the pad.
• The electronic components in the controller warm up when the
heating pad is in use. For this reason, the controller must never be
covered or placed on the heating pad when it is in use.

maintenance (section 5) and storage (section 6).
