OVERBLANKET
•Your overblanket should, as the name suggests, be used ABOVE, not underneath, the occupant of the bed. It can be used either under a duvet or one or two blanket covers. It can also be used inside the duvet cover.
•This product can be used with any type of bedding, including waterproof bed protectors.
Under the duvet cover
1The bed should be made as normal, with a bottom sheet covering the mattress then a top sheet above the bed occupant, then the heated overblanket, then the duvet or covers A.
2Fold the top sheet over the top edge of the blanket and tuck in the sides.
WARNING: Do not fold over the top part of the blanket or tuck in any wired parts.
Inside the duvet cover
The overblanket is designed to enable it to be placed inside the duvet cover with a duvet of up to 12.5 tog if desired.
1It should be carefully inserted into the duvet cover BELOW the duvet, ensuring that it is spread smoothly and that there are no folds in the overblanket B.
2Securing loops are provided along the top edge of the overblanket. These can be used to sew it to the duvet with a simple stitch to help prevent the blanket from moving inside the duvet cover.
•If the duvet cover is smaller than normal size, it is permissable for the side edges of the overblanket (no more than 3” or 75mm) to be folded over to allow it to fit inside the duvet cover.
WARNING: On no account should the central, heated area of the blanket be folded for this purpose. The electric lead should be located at the open end of the duvet cover at the bottom of the bed.
