4.7 Switching off
Set the ON/OFF slider (4) to the OFF (0) position to switch off the electric underblanket. After switching off
the temperature setting is not illuminated any more.
NOTE:
If the heated underblanket won't be used for several days, switch it off (Slider to setting "0"/OFF) and
remove the supply plug from the mains outlet.
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" [7] 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 consump-
tion 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 healthy 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 pre-
sent 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 re-
commend regular use of the anti-allergy temperature setting. Ideally, the electric underblanket should be
operated for the full 12 hours.
5. Cleaning and care
WARNING
Before cleaning the electric underblanket always disconnect the mains plug from the socket and
unplug the plug-in coupling [8] and thereby the Control [1] from the electric underblanket. Otherwise
there is a risk of an electric shock.
CAUTION
The Control must never come into contact with water or other liquids, as this may cause damage.
