3 Securing Your Electric Blanket
Note: Your electric blanket must be placed directly onto the mattress.
If using a mattress protector, this goes over the electric blanket.
IMPORTANT:
• Place the blanket onto the mattress with the
controller connection/s at the HEAD END of the bed.
NOTE: Electric blankets MUST NOT be used on top
of the user (as with a normal blanket), instead they
must be firmly secured to the mattress.
• Fit the side skirts around the edges of the mattress
then use the elastic skirt to ensure that the blanket
fits snugly around the sides and underneath the
mattress.
• Spread the skirt around the mattress edge ensuring
even tension and making sure the blanket is placed evenly over the mattress then
ensure that the blanket is flat and crease free.
Note: Care should also be taken if you are using a continental quilt because heat
will build up more quickly than with other bed coverings. A short period may only
be needed to reach maximum temperature depending on the insulation density of
your quilt. This also applies if using additional bed blankets.
• The electric blanket should not be tucked in at the sides.
• Make your bed in the usual manner.
• After the blanket is secure and fitted correctly, plug the controller/s into the wall
power socket and turn on.
NOTE: Do not plug into a powerboard, double adaptor or the like. The power plug
must be inserted directly into the wall power socket.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT COVER THE CONTROLLERS AT ANY TIME.
Keep the controllers away from external heat sources. i.e. a heater, fire place etc.
