DREAMS Luxury Quilted Heated Blanket Manual

Intended use

The Blanket is not a medical device and is not suitable for therapeutic purposes. The Heated Blanket must not be used to warm babies, infants, helpless or heat- insensitive individuals or animals. Use only in dry indoor rooms. Use the product only for its prescribed purpose.

Only for domestic use and not for commercial use!

Operating instructions

Place the Heated Blanket on your mattress ensuring there are no folds or crumples. The side with the socket (shown in the image directly below) should be facing downwards towards the mattress.
The Heated Blanket should be placed with the controller located towards the pillow side of the bed. Use the corner straps to secure your Heated Blanket in place. This heated blanket is designed to accommodate multiple mattress depths so it has a plastic buckle on each corner strap that can be easily adjusted to enable a perfect fit for your particular mattress.
Ensure that the plug of the controller is inserted firmly into the socket on the blanket and then insert the plug into the mains power outlet.

Operating the Controller

Firstly, slide the ON / OFF switch upwards so you can see the word "ON". You will notice the blue light of the LCD panel is on and this shows the default heat setting of 9 for the upper body section and 9 for the lower body section. It also shows the default setting for the countdown timer as 1 hour.
If no buttons are pressed for 10 seconds, then the light within the LCD panel will switch off and the blanket will remain operating at the settings last shown.
To check the settings, you can simply press either the "Body", "Feet" or "Timer" button once and the backlight will illuminate.
To select the desired setting for the upper body please continue to press the "Body" button until the number in the top left of the display matches your requirement. For the lower body setting please do the same using the "Feet" button. The number in the bottom left of the display relates to this setting.
The heat settings available are 0-9. The "0" setting will not give any heat with gradually increasing heat output from 1-9 with "9" being the maximum heat setting.
You can use any of these heat settings to pre-heat your bed but only heat settings "1", "2" or "3" should be used whilst sleeping on top of the blanket.
Heat setting "9" will pre-heat your bed quickly but we recommend only using this setting for one hour.
DO NOT SLEEP ON YOUR BLANKET WITH THIS SETTING.
The count-down timer can be set to power down the blanket for up to 12 hours. Press the "Timer" button until you have the number you want. When that time has elapsed, the heat will cut off. The number will be displayed on the right-hand side of the display.
The numbers shown all relate to hour intervals from 1-9. To select 12 hours please ensure that "H" is showing on the display.

When the blanket is not in operation, please slide the ON / OFF switch downwards so you can see the word "OFF".

Multiple Heating Zones
This heated blanket enables you to select different heat settings for your upper body and lower body so you can heat the bed according to your comfort preferences. In addition, the models with 2 x controllers (King and Super King sizes) enable each side of the bed to be set at different temperatures so that you can use a different heat setting to your partner.

Single and Double Size Blanket with One Controller
There are 2 heating zones operated by one controller. In the image, area "A"'s temperature relates to the upper body heat setting that is selected using the "Body" button on the controller.
Area "B"'s temperature relates to the lower body heat setting that is selected using the "Feet" button on the controller.

King and Super King Size Blanket with Two Controllers
There are 4 heating zones operated by two controllers. In the image, areas "A" and "B" are controlled via controller "1". Areas "C" and "D" are controlled via controller "2".

You can safely use the heated blanket whilst you sleep using heat settings "1", "2", or "3" only.

Care and maintenance

Here are some tips to keep your Heated Blanket in tip-top condition. Please don't dry clean, tumble dry, or iron your Heated Blanket to avoid damage.

	Spot cleaning Sponge the dirty area using a warm soapy solution and when clean sponge the same area lightly with warm water. Remove any excess water using an paper towel or absorbent cloth and then leave to fully dry before use.
	Machine washing Always disconnect the control panel from the electric blanket before washing. Wash at maximum 30°C for a gentle wash.
	Hand washing Always disconnect the control panel from the electric blanket before washing. Do not wring your Heated Blanket.
	Drying Let your Heated Blanket dry naturally by air, do not tumble dry or use a hair dryer or clothes dryer to dry it. If you are hanging it to dry please drape it over the line and don't use pegs.
	Storage When not in use, fold your Heated Blanket and store in a cool, clean and dry location. Avoid pressing sharp creases into your blanket when folding. Only fold and store your blanket when it's fully cooled down.
