This 12V heated travel blanket is designed for use in vehicles. Important safety limitations: Do not use the blanket continuously for more than one hour. Do not use the blanket if it is folded, bunched, wet, or damp. Do not sit on the blanket. This product is not intended for medical use, nor for use by infants or children under 3 years of age. Always unplug the blanket before leaving the vehicle or when the vehicle is unattended.
Product Overview
The blanket consists of a heated area, a clamp, a controller, and a 12V DC adapter with a replaceable 5A fuse. The controller allows you to switch between high heat (HI), low heat (LO), and OFF.
Operating Instructions
To operate the blanket, plug the 12V DC adapter into your vehicle's 12V outlet. Ensure the vehicle is running or the ignition is in the accessory position. Use the controller switch to select your desired heat level:
- HI (Top position): High heating level, continuous operation.
- LO (Bottom position): Low heating level, continuous operation.
- OFF (Middle position): Power off.
The blanket features two internal thermostats for high-temperature protection.
Fuse Replacement
If the blanket stops heating, the fuse in the 12V adapter may have blown. To replace it:
- Unplug the adapter from the power source.
- Turn the tip of the adapter counterclockwise to unlock the fuse adapter body.
- Remove the old fuse and replace it with a new 5A glass fuse (ACG glass 5 amp fuse only).
- Reassemble the adapter.
Care and Maintenance
DO NOT WASH. The blanket is not machine washable and should not be immersed in water. Spot clean only using a damp cloth. Do not soak. Ensure the blanket is completely dry before plugging it in. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Regularly inspect the blanket and power cord for signs of wear, damage, or exposed wires.
Troubleshooting
If the blanket is not heating, ensure the 12V adapter is clean and fully inserted into the outlet. If the cigarette plug light keeps flashing, unplug the blanket and ensure it is completely unfolded and that no wires are bent or damaged. If the power cord gets hot, ensure it is not coiled up, tied, or damaged.
