It also has a timer that will switch off the heat mat after the selected time has elapsed. This helps prevent skin sloughing that can occur when a recumbent animal is left for a long time on a heat mat without turning. The BUSTER Heat Pad uses 12 V DC which means that if an animal chews the mat it will not be electrocuted. Setting the Temperature Press the MODE key until the red temp. light is illuminated. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the required temperature which is displayed in the LED in °C. Using the BUSTER Heat Pad The BUSTER Heat Pad can be used on its own or in conjunction with the BUSTER ICU cages and BUSTER kennel mats. If using it on its own, it is not recommended that the animal is placed directly onto the BUSTER Heat Pad. If using it with the BUSTER ICU cages or BUSTER kennel mats, insert the BUSTER Heat Pad into the special pocket which is accessed by opening the Velcro flap at one end of the mat. If using it with the BUSTER ICU cages put the mat into the BUSTER ICU cage in such a way that the flex from the heat pad can be fed through the zip on the base of the BUSTER ICU cage. Select the temperature most suitable for the animal’s requirements. It is important to check the animal’s temperature at regular intervals to avoid overheating. Cleaning and Maintenance After use, wipe the pad part with an appropriate disinfectant or parvocide. Wipe with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Do not submerge in water. Check the pad for damage after each use and discard if found. Setting the Time Press the MODE key until the orange time light is illuminated. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the required time between 1 and 9 hours. Press the START key and the mat will start heating. The green heating light will be illuminated. When the selected time has elapsed, the green heating light will go off as well as the heating pad. The hours will still be displayed in the LED.
