cleaning & maintenance
WARNING
Before cleaning the heating pad, always remove the plug from the socket. Otherwise you will
run the risk of an electric shock. Then disconnect the switch from the heating pad by removing
the plug. Otherwise the heating pad could get damaged.
CAUTION!
The switch may never come into contact with water or other liquids. It could get damaged as a result.
• Use a dry lint-free cloth for cleaning the switch. Do not use chemical cleaning agents or abrasives.
• Small stains on the heating pad can be removed with a cloth or a damp sponge and, if necessary, a little bit of gentle detergent liquid.
CAUTION!
The heating pad should not be dry cleaned, spun, dried in the machine, mangled or ironed. Otherwise the heating pad could
get damaged.
• In case of a stronger level of contamination, the heating pad can be washed in the washing machine.
• Set the washing machine to a 30 °C program (wool program). Out of environmental considerations, we recommend washing the
heating pad at the same time as other items. Use a gentle detergent in accordance with the manufacturer's dosing instructions.
CAUTION!
Note that excessive washing will wear out the heating pad. For this reason, the heating pad should only be machine-washed a
maximum of 5 times throughout its entire life.
• Immediately after washing, pull the heating pad in its original size and form while still wet, and leave it lying flat on a drying rack.
CAUTION!
• Do not use pegs or other clamps to attach the heating pad to the drying rack. Otherwise the heating pad could
get damaged.
• Only connect the switch to the heating pad when the plug connection and pad are fully dry. Otherwise the heating
pad could get damaged.
WARNING
Never switch on the heating pad in order to dry it in this way! You will run the risk of an electric shock.

storing
If you do not use the heating pad for a longer period of time, we recommend storing it in its original packaging. For this, remove the
plug of the switch from the connection of the heating pad.
CAUTION!
• Please allow the heating pad to cool down first. Otherwise,
the heating pad may be damaged.
• To avoid sharp folds in the heating pad, do not place objects
on top of it while it is being stored.
