Cleaning liquid may dam- age the insulation of the heat- ing element.Improper launder- ing may cause problems with the heating element,which can lead to fire. 4 .Do not pinch, flex, or expose the heating element to rub- bing. A damaged heating ele- ment may result in possible over-heating or fire. 5 .Excessive heating may result from folding bedding when in actual use. 6 .Turn off the blanket control when not using the blanket. 7 .Do not use pins;they may damage the electric heating element. 8 .Be sure this blanket is only on an AC supply current of 110 –120 volts.Do not use with an extension cord. 9 .Keep all dogs,cats,and other pets away from this blanket. This is an electrical appliance that they can dam- age or be injured by. 10 .Do not use on a waterbed, sofa,bunk bed,or mechani- cally adjustable bed. 11 .Do not use more than one electric heating device on the bed at the same time,such as another electric blanket, mattress pad or heating pad. 12 .Use the proper size blan- ket for your bed.For example, use “Queen Size ”on a queen bed. 13 .Keep the control away from an open window. 14 .If you see the blanket operating improperly,unplug it immediately and call Lands ’End Customer Service at 800-746-3467 . 2 NOTE:NOTE: NOTE:NOTE: NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules and with UL 964. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular instal- lation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1 .This device may not cause harmful interference. 2 .This device must accept any interference received,including interference that may cause undesired operation. Warning:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user ’s authority to operate the equipment . 3 4 Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Polartec Heat ® Blanket, the state of the art in bedding comfort. The Polartec Heat ® Blanket represents the introduction of smart fabric technol- ogy into heated blankets, and provides Warmth on Demand ™ by safely and actively heating extraordinarily fine conductive fibers that are knit into the blanket. Low-voltage power warms the entire surface, providing an even distribution of heat. The discreet nature of the heating technology allows you to use the blanket throughout the year. The innovative wireless remote controls are designed to provide easy tempera- ture adjustment by the user. These feature a range of temperature settings with a back-lit display. When first turned on, a pre-heat cycle warms the blanket. If you forget to turn the blanket off, an automatic shut-off function will do this for you after 10hours of continuous use. Queen and King blankets are shipped with two color-coded remotes to allow each user to easily distinguish between them and control separate sides. (Double blanket has one remote.) The elegant design of the remote allows it to be placed on a night stand or attached to a bed sheet, providing nighttime ease of use. This is the blanket for the 21st century. We know you will enjoy it. • Polartec ® quality • Warmth on Demand ™ • Safe, low-voltage power (28volts DC) • Dual heating zones • Ergonomic, wireless remote controls • Four-season versatility • Easy care, machine washable •10-hour automatic shut-off • Industry-standard blanket sizing • Plugs into any household outlet 5 INSTRUCTION MANUAL OP 8/20/01 10:45 AM Page 3 Getting Started Follow these instructions to get your new Polartec Heat ® Blanket set up and running. Make Your Bed (Be sure to follow these steps in order.) 1. Remove blanket, wireless remote controls, and base unit from packaging. (Double blanket has one remote.) 2…

If pushbutton SW2, or potentiometer R1 change state, the microcontroller remains on for 350mSec to transmit power level setting of potentiometer. Slide switch setting, SW1, is also encoded into transmission and indicates left or right zone of blanket to be controlled. A 3V lithium cell battery provides power to the microcontroller and RF oscillator. The battery low terminal is the circuit common (ground) for the microcontroller and RF circuit. A ground plane extends below the digital circuit but does not extend below the RF circuit or antenna. In this way RF impedances are controlled. Microcontroller output U1 pin 13 turns on and off the RF oscillator. 8 repetitions of a 26-bit pattern is transmitted over a 350mSec interval. The RF output at 418MHz is coupled through C10 onto the ¼ wave PCB etch antenna. All timing is derived from the crystal oscillator formed from Y1 and U1. The oscillator frequency is 32kHz. 2.0 Receiver: A PCB etch antenna picks up 418MHz transmission from the remote. Network L1, C9, C13, form a tank circuit limiting pickup of off-frequency signals. RF receiver, U3, is a complete RF receiver, performing all intermediate demodulation and AGC functions. The output of U3 is baseband control data at 1kHz, which is asynchronously decoded by microcontroller U1. Crystal Y1 forms a resonant circuit at 6.5Mhz with U1, which is also tapped to provide the clock to the RF IC. The RF IC generates all demodulation frequencies internally and none are present outside of the IC. EEPROM memory within U1 is loaded during production with an ID codes to match two transmitters. U1 parses received data and upon detecting a valid ID implements the received command. See the blanket operator’s manual for a complete description of functions. A linear power supply is comprised of a transformer, a bridge circuit, and filter capacitors C14 and C15. Power is gated onto the blanket under the control of microcontroller U1 through FETs Q1 and Q2 onto the right side of the blanket, and through FETS Q3 and Q4 onto the left side of the blanket. Power is controlled through a PWM cycle of 20 seconds with minimum power at 30% duty cycle (six of twenty seconds on) and maximum power at 100% duty cycle (continuos on). The negative output of the bridge circuit serves as circuit common for all digital and RF functions. A ground plane extends under all digital circuits. 3.0 Contact Information 3.1 Please direct any questions to: Jane Hunter Malden Ventures 978 653 5208 (v) 978 659 5110 fax
