2. Proper Use

This heating pad is designed for warming the human body. It allows you to apply tar geted warmth. Heat
promotes the circulation and relaxes the muscles. This heating pad is not intended for use in hospitals
or for commercial applications. In particular, it may not be used on infants, small children, persons
insensitive to heat, helpless persons or animals.
To avoid soiling or damaging the heating pad, we recommend using a fabric cover, particularly when
applying essential oils and ointments.
When used for the first time, the heating pad may start to smell of plastic but this will soon go away.
3. Operation
3.1 Safety
This heating pad has a SAFETY SYSTEM. This electronic sensor technology prevents the entire surface
of the heating pad from overheating by automatically switching off in the event of a fault. If the safety
system switches off the heating pad automatically as a result of a fault, the temperature display on the
switch is no longer illuminated even when the heating pad is switched on. Please note that, after a fault
has occurred, the back and neck heating pad can no longer be used for safety reasons and must be
sent to the service address indicated.
