For your safety and the safety of those around you, please read these use guidelines carefully before using your gloves. Failure to adhere to these guidelines can result in serious injury and loss of property.
Fully charge your gloves before first use. Most pairs are fully charged before shipment.
1. The cable assembly that contains the glove charging plug is located just inside the interior glove cuff
(Figure 1). You must disconnect the glove cable assembly to charge the gloves. When disconnecting the
glove charging plug from the glove cable assembly (Figure 2), hold only the plug heads, not the cables.
IMPORTANT: These are latching connectors, so the tab/lever on the smaller male connector must be
pressed to enable the connectors to be separated (see
HOW TO USE LATCHING CONNECTORS
).
2. Plug the ACTIVE
DRY
™ charger (Figure 3) into an electrical outlet. The charge indicator lights on the
charger will illuminate green.
3. Connect the glove charging plugs on both gloves to the two charger plugs (Figure 3). The charging
process will automatically start and the charge indicator lights will turn red (unless the gloves are
already fully charged). At the same time, the ALPHA
HEAT
™ system in each glove will activate to
accelerate the drying process.
4. To maximize the effectiveness of the drying process:
Open the gauntlet cuff and elevate the cuff above the fingers to allow the warm wet air from inside of
the glove to escape. If this is not done, moisture will be trapped in the fingertips.
Do not set anything on top of the gloves while charging.
Do not set the gloves on top of each other while charging.
About 8 hours are required to fully recharge discharged gloves.
When the gloves are 90-95% charged, the charge indicator lights will turn green and the ALPHA
HEAT
™
heating system will deactivate, but the gloves will continue to trickle-charge up to a full charge.
Do not allow the gloves to remain connected to a powered charger more than 24 hours.
5. Disconnect both glove charging plugs from the charger plugs. IMPORTANT: These are latching
connectors, so the tab/lever on the smaller male connector must be pressed to enable the connectors
to be separated.
6. Line up the plugs in each glove’s cable assembly and reconnect them (Figure 1).
Recharge gloves after each use to protect the battery system and ensure your gloves are ready for use.
Store and transport the gloves with the glove cable assembly plugs disconnected to ensure the gloves
are not activated and the batteries not unintentionally drained.
The proprietary lithium polymer battery system in these gloves does not need to be fully discharged
before recharging.
WARNING
: Do not place the charger in a confined space. Ensure that the charger is well ventilated. The
charger must dissipate a large amount of heat and will become hot during the charging process. Do not
try to open the gloves to gain access to the battery system. It is a closed, proprietary system with no
replaceable parts. Do not expose the gloves to an open flame. Improper handling of lithium polymer
batteries can cause them to explode!
USE
The single control button (Figure 4) is used to turn the heating system on and off. The center of the
button will illuminate to indicate the system is active and heating.
Activate:
Press the button and hold for 3 seconds to turn on the heating system. The button will
illuminate.
Regulation:
The automated heat regulation adjusts with ambient conditions, your hand temperature
and other environmental factors.
Deactivate:
Press the button and hold for 3 seconds to turn off the heating system. The illuminated
button will de-illuminate.
WARNING:
Use the heating system only in cold conditions. If used indoors or in warm conditions, the
heat could become excessive. Avoid overheating your hands. If your hands are becoming sweaty or
overheated, turn the system off until needed again.
