🔌 Step 1: Plug It In
-
Insert the plug into a standard 220V wall socket.

If you're using it outdoors, ensure the socket is weather-protected and the plug is off the ground to prevent water damage.

🌡️ Step 3: Adjust the Heat Level

Turn the Knob clockwise to increase the heat, or anti-clockwise to decrease.

⏱ Step 4: Set the Timer (Optional)
-
Press the Button (next to or integrated into the top knob) once to activate the timer.
