warmth. Too much heat and feet feel excess heat. Too little heat and
feet feel cold penetrating through.
5. If feet are comfortable yet feel excess heat , turn to lower setting to
minimize perspiration and maximize battery duration.
6. If feet begin to feel cool , turn setting up to maintain comfort and
warmth.
7. If you think FootWarmer is not working , try turning left Battery Pack
off. If left foot becomes colder, FootWarmer is working.
8. Ability to feel heat and maintain comfort and warmth depends
upon:
proper installation; type, fit, and dryness of footwear, sock,
and insole; foot callus size; activity levels; weather conditions; and
other factors.
9. Expect bottom of toes to feel heat less than fingers and hands.
COMFORT AND WARMTH RANGES
When first learning use of FootWarmer , following chart may help in
setting selection. Chart represents approximate ranges for comfort and
warmth maintenance. First determine outside temperature then select
setting based on personal sensitivity to cold. More sensitive select left of
range. Less sensitive select right..

TIPS ON BATTERY PACK OPERATING TEMPERATURES
1. When going into temperatures below freezing (where Battery Packs
may be exposed), turn Battery Packs minimally to setting ONE
as
this protects batteries from freezing and any harm that may occur
due to freezing.
2. Do not operate Battery Packs that have been OFF and in
temperatures below freezing
as it may harm batteries and cause
Battery Packs to function improperly or not at all.
TIPS ON USING FOOTWARMER
1. Extremely poor circulation or extremely cold conditions may
require setting 2 or 3 for comfort and warmth. Extra Battery Packs
extend all day comfort and warmth.
2. Do not allow chair lift to hit you! Damage may result to you and
your FootWarmer.
3. Be careful walking down stairs! Battery Packs may catch stair edge
when mounted on back of boots.
4. Place heated insole (fabric surface up) directly underneath socked
foot . Do not place another insole over heated insole.
5. Proper fitting boots help maintain comfort and warmth. Tight boots
and improper fit restrict blood flow and compromise comfort and
warmth.
DRY BOOTS! DRY SOCKS!
1. If boots and socks are wet , expect cold feet.
2. Wet conductive heat loss is 23 times greater than dry heat loss. (W.
L. Gore & Associates, 1994)
3. Feet perspire more than any other part of your body except your
head and hands. Each foot perspires about 1/4 cup of water a day at
rest and one full cup when active. (W. L. Gore & Associates, 1994)
4. Maintain dry boots! Dry after each use! Each additional day of
moisture buildup makes warm feet more difficult. Consider boot
dryer (i.e., Hotronic’s Snapdry Boot & Glove Dryer).
5. Remove inner boots to dry between liner and boot shell.
