Powering Off Synergy
®
Pro-Plus Heated Apparel:
WARNING: Before turning vehicle motor off, power down all Synergy
®
Pro-Plus garments to prevent voltage spikes that could cause damage
to your heated apparel.
1. To power down your Synergy
®
Pro-Plus garment, simply press and
hold down the center of the controller until the LED button turns off.
2. Once the LED light is off, the garment is safe to disconnect from
the vehicle’s battery harness.
The overall performance of electrically heated apparel depends heavily on the fit of the
garment, the condition of each electrical component, and the peak amperage output
potential of your vehicle’s electrical system.
Older vehicles or vehicles with smaller engine displacements may be incapable of
powering certain combinations of electric apparel to their full heating potential. In
addition, some electrical systems do not provide peak electrical output during low RPM
situations or at idle, causing fluctuations in the level of heat provided by the garments.
To determine the peak amperage and power output characteristics of your
vehicle’s electrical system, consult the vehicle’s manufacturer supplied
owner’s manual. Additionally, other accessories use power. Make sure
you know how much power all accessories are using.
Garment Fails To Heat-Up Or Reach Maximum Heating Levels
Improper Fit:
Electrically heated garments must be snug and form fitting. Garments that are too large
for the wearer will not make optimum contact with the wearer’s body resulting in reduced
heat levels.
Improper Layering:
Electrically heated apparel is most effective when worn over one thin layer of clothing.
Synergy
®
apparel worn over thick clothing such as sweatshirts, jeans or sweatpants will
not make optimum contact with the wearer’s body resulting in reduced heat levels.
Temperature Control Set Incorrectly:
Synergy
®
apparel is designed to operate across a wide spectrum of temperature levels,
check that the temperature controller is set to the desired heating level.
