As we head towards the colder months now is a good time to check your electric blanket is safe for continued use.
Your blanket needs to be replaced if: • Fabric is worn or frayed. • Scorch marks are visible on the fabric • Wires are poking through the fabric. • There is damage to any part of the electrical cord. • The control is making a buzzing sound when switched on and/or is giving off a smell. • The connector fitted to the blanket is damaged or over-heating.
