- Inspect for Damage: Before use, inspect the blanket for any signs of damage, such as frayed cords or exposed wires. Do not use if damaged.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your heated blanket, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Blanket Not Heating: Ensure the controller(s) are securely connected to the blanket and the power cord is firmly plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the auto shut-off timer has expired.
- Error Code Displayed (e.g., F1): An error code, such as F1, typically indicates a connection issue. Disconnect the controller from both the blanket and the wall outlet, then reconnect them firmly. If the error persists, contact customer support.
- Uneven Heating: Ensure the blanket is laid flat and not bunched or folded, which can affect heat distribution.
- Controller Not Responding: Try unplugging the blanket from the wall outlet for a few minutes, then plug it back in to reset the controller.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please refer to the Warranty and Support section for further assistance.
