4.2 Auto Off
This controller is fitted with a 12 hour Count Down Auto Off Timer which starts to
countdown from when your heat setting has been selected, and will switch power
off to the elements after approximately 12 hours. (+/- 30Minutes).
Note: Once a heat setting has been selected and the switch is powered ON, the
countdown timer will not be affected by adjusting heat level.
The timer will only be reset to 12 hours by sliding the control knob to heat level “O”
or after being powered OFF and then back On.
When the controller has timed out, the element will turn off and the Red LED’s on
the front display will flash.
Slide the control knob to the “O” position to reset.
4.3 Pre Heat
The controller has a pre-heat facility in order for you to warm your bed prior to
getting into it.
The time taken to pre-heat the bed will depend on the ambient temperature of the
bedroom and whether an electric blanket has been used to air the bed on a regular
basis.
At normal ambient temperature you should allow approximately 30 - 60 minutes on
Heat Setting “3” (Pre Heat).
You may get into bed sooner while the bed is still warming up, but please DO NOT
leave the blanket set on the Preheat setting (No. 3) while you are in the bed.
A cold room or bed that has not been used for some time may require a greater
length of time on the pre-heat.
5 Overheat / Element Protection
The blanket is fitted with numerous overheat safeguard systems. This offers protection
against overheating or damage to the elements by disengaging the power to the
elements before overheating hazards occur.
Should there ever be a problem with the heating element in the Blanket, it will
automatically close down the operation and the Blanket will turn off.
The controller must not be covered. The controller has built in protection, so that if
the controller overheats, or the heating element is damaged, it will automatically close
down the operation Permanently.
