Troubleshooting

If your electric blanket is not functioning as expected, please refer to the following common issues and solutions:

• Blanket Not Heating:
  • Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet.
  • Verify that the controller cord is firmly connected to the blanket.
  • Check if the power button on the controller is pressed and a heat setting is selected.
  • Confirm that the blanket is spread evenly and not bunched, folded, or tucked in.
• Controller Displaying an Error Code (e.g., 'E2'):
  • An error code typically indicates an internal issue or a safety shutdown.
  • Unplug the blanket from the wall outlet and disconnect the controller from the blanket.
  • Wait for 5-10 minutes, then reconnect the controller and plug the blanket back into the outlet.
  • If the error persists, the blanket may require service. Contact customer support.
• Uneven Heating or Cold Spots:
  • Ensure the blanket is spread flat and evenly on the bed.
  • Avoid placing heavy objects on the blanket while it is in use, as this can concentrate heat and affect distribution.
  • If the issue continues, contact customer support.
• Blanket Shuts Off Unexpectedly:
  • Check the auto shut-off timer setting. The blanket is designed to turn off after the set duration (1-10 hours).
  • If the blanket shuts off before the timer, ensure the controller is not covered or overheating.
