ActiVHeat CORDLESS HEATED GLOVE LINER INSTRUCTIONS:
Your
package should include:
·
One (1) Pair of ActiVHeat Cordless
Glove Liners;
·
At least one PAIR (2) of red
rechargeable compact Lithium polymer battery packs;
·
One (1) Wall-outlet AC Adaptor Power
Supply;
·
One (1) Y-cable charging module with
two small plugs and a socket.
Note: The battery packs are not charged when you receive them and
must be fully charged. This may take up to 6 hours the first time
charging. Maintenance Tip: To prolong the life of the battery packs,
charge fully as soon as you receive them.
Charging
Connect the socket on the Y-cable charging
module to the plug on end of the cable of the AC Adaptor Power Supply cable and
then firmly connect the two Y-cable module plugs into each of the sockets of
the battery packs. Then insert the AC Adaptor Power Supply into an active electrical
wall-outlet to charge the battery packs. Both battery packs must always be
charged at the same time!
After the initial charge, the regular charging time is approximately 3 hours.
The two (2) lights on the Y-cable module both light up RED color when charging and then each changes to GREEN color or OFF when fully charged.
After the battery packs are fully charged (GREEN or OFF), unplug the AC Power Supply
from the electrical wall outlet and disconnect the cables from the battery
packs.
Store the battery packs in the pocket inside the cuff of the gloves and close
the zipper.
When to Recharge the Battery Packs: For best performance,
charge the Battery Pack every time right BEFORE using your ActiVHeat cordless
gloves. However, you can recharge the Battery Pack whenever it is convenient.
The Battery Pack will naturally discharge itself over time, it is best to
charge it the same day you plan to use it, or the day before.
Connecting the battery packs:
To use the ActiVHeat Cordless Glove
Liners, open the zipper of the inner in the glove and firmly connect the plug
found inside to the socket of the battery. Store the connected battery inside
the pouch and close the zipper.
Using the gloves:
Open the tightening strap, pull on
the gloves and tighten snugly. Heating is activated by depressing the heat
control soft switch located on the top of the gloves for about 3 seconds continuously.
The light on the switch will then light up, indicating that the gloves are
heating.
The temperature can be adjusted by pressing and releasing the heat controller
button.

Preparing your Battery packs for
Long Term Storage:
For best performance it is
recommended not leave the battery packs fully charged (full) or fully
discharged (empty) if not being used for
a long period of time i.e. over the summer (more than a month)!
To recharge for storage, charge up for 45 minutes only and unplug the battery
packs. After 3 months recharge the battery packs again for about 45 minutes and
unplug from the charger. Repeat ever 3 months.
Warning: Leaving the battery packs over several months without
storage recharging may permanently reduce the charge capability of the battery
packs and result in only a few minutes of heating time.
Recharge the battery packs completely before using again.
Only use supplied AC
wall charger or other ActiVHeat auto adaptor to charge the Battery Packs.
Charging the Battery packs with a substitute AC charger may damage the Battery
Packs, cause an unsafe condition and will void your warranty.

uncharged, and the ambient temperature. They will usually require replacement
after about 500 charges.
