IMPORTANT :

Please read these instructions upon receipt of this product to

ensure the safe and optimal performance from your heated

garment.

Welcome

Thank you for choosing ActiVHeat®battery-operated heated

apparel. Your high performance ActiVHeat®heated garment

has been designed to provide you with warmth where and

when you need it, whatever the weather.

The unique heating system is based upon soft non-metallic fi-

bers that are extremely efficient in generating heat from a low

voltage source. These non-metallic fiber bundles are sewn into

your ActiVHeat® garment to provide warmth to your body.

Check that this this package contains 1 each of an :

• ActiVHeat®Vest or Jacket; together with an ActiVHeat®

One-Button Controller with this Manual;

and

• ActiVHeat®Lithium Polymer Battery Pack with a Plug-in

Battery Wall Charger (in a bubble bag) ;

Note: If you did not receive a Battery Pack and Charger with

your garment, please check the package carefully first as it

may have been packed separately. If it not included please

contact your retailer as they have omitted to include it.

This omission is not a manufacturer warranty issue.

Getting Started

The ActiVHeat®Lithium Polymer Battery Pack is supplied with

an ON/OFF hibernation slide switch and you should slide this

switch using a pen or small tool to ON now to activate it.

Because it is supplied with a low maintenance charge, you

should charge it fully upon receipt. The first time full charge

may take up to 6 hours. Thereafter it will take approximately 3

hours. This Battery Pack does not require pre-conditioning and

will deliver 100% of power from the first cycle. Always keep the

Battery Pack and Charger out of reach of children.

Charging the Battery Pack

There are two sockets & a

switch on the Battery

Pack. The smaller socket

(A) connects to the

Charger and the larger

socket (B) connects to the

garment plug.

The switch (D) is a hiber-

nation storage switch and

must be slid using a pen or small tool to the ON position to

charge or operate. You should only slide the switch to OFF

when you don’t plan to use the battery pack for more than 2

months.

1. Plug the wall charger into an active electrical outlet.

2. Ensure the battery pack switch is slid to the ON position.

3. Insert the charger plug into the smaller socket on the Battery

Pack.

The Charge indicator light (C) will illuminate RED when charg-

ing. The light will turn

GREEN

when charging is complete. The

Battery Pack will not charge if the slide switch is OFF.

Note: If no light illuminates on the Battery Pack, check the

Battery Switch is slid to ON, the charger plug is firmly con-

nected into the Battery Pack, and the AC charger is fully in-

serted into an active electrical outlet.

You cannot overcharge the Battery Pack. When the Battery Pack

is fully charged, the system stops any current entering the Bat-

tery. This makes the system completely safe even if a fully

charged battery pack is plugged into the charger continuously.

The charger supplied has been chosen specifically for the Bat-

tery Pack supplied.

Warning: Only use the supplied AC charger or other ActiVHeat®

accessory to charge the Battery Pack. Charging the Battery Pack

with a substitute AC charger may damage the Battery Pack and

will void your warranty. You may use the ActiVHeat®car

charger.

When to Recharge the Battery Pack

For best performance, charge the Battery Pack every time right

BEFORE using your ActiVHeat®garment. However, you can re-

charge 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 be-

fore.

Each time the battery switch has been slid from OFF to ON,

you will need to charge the battery pack for a few seconds

to power up the microprocessor inside. You should only use

the OFF hibernation position when not using the battery

pack for more than 2 months.

As with all lithium polymer batteries, the charging capacity of the

Battery Pack (i.e. the number of hours of heat) will be perma-

nently reduced if the Battery Pack slide switch is in the ON posi-

tion & not charged up for more than 3 months. This is most likely

during the warmer months when the garment is not is use so

fully charge the Battery Pack and slide the Battery Pack

Switch to OFF when you plan to store it for an extended pe-

riod of time. Always charge battery pack at least every 12

months. Store the Battery Pack in dry and cool location at a

temperature no higher than 86°F (30° C).

Installing the Battery Pack

1. Locate the horizontal zipper

of the Battery Pack pocket

inside the garment behind

the left hand pocket.

2.Open the zipper and reach

in to locate the Battery Pack

plug. This plug is attached to

a short cable connected to

your garment.

3.Securely plug the Battery

Pack plug into the large

socket on the Battery Pack.

4.Insert the Battery Pack with the plug securely connected into

the Battery Pack pocket and fully close the zipper.

Installing the One-Button Controller

Your One-button Controller has

a plug and a socket at one

end. This plug and socket

connects to your garment.

1. Locate the long vertical zip-

per of the Controller pocket

inside the garment behind the

left outer chest pocket (see

right opposite page).

2. Undo the positioning button

located half way down the zip-

per and fully open the zipper.

3. Locate the garment plug and

socket inside the bottom of

this long pocket (see right op-

posite page).

4. The Garment Socket has a

rubber Cap which is placed over the

Garment socket for washing. Gently

pry off this Cap.

5. Firmly connect the Controller

plug and socket to the Garment plug

and socket. If both plugs and sock-

ets are not firmly connected the gar-

ment will not operate.

6. Test the Battery connection by

depressing the switch button on the

Controller. A light should illuminate

on the Controller which indicates the

Controller is connected to the Bat-

tery. Repeatedly depress the switch

button until the Controller light goes

off so the Battery Pack is not dis-

charged.

7. Lay the Controller inside the

pocket with the switch button portion

near the top of the pocket.

8. Close the zipper fully and fasten

the positioning button. The position-

ing button makes it easier to access

the Controller by stopping the Con-

troller from slipping down inside the

pocket.

Your ActiVHeat®garment is now

ready to use.

Adjusting the Heat Level

The ActiVHeat®Controller has a

pushbutton switch and a colored In-

dicator Light on one end which varies

from Red, Orange, Green or Off

when you depress the switch each

time. (see previous page).

No Light = OFF (NO HEAT)

Red = 100% Power (HIGH HEAT)

Orange = 50% Power (MEDIUM HEAT)

Green = 25% Power (LOW HEAT)

Warning:

Do not use the garment:

a) when it is wet,

b) against bare skin; or

c) when ambient temperature is above 85°F (~30°C).

Keep the Battery Pack away from fire and other heat

sources to avoid the risk of explosion.

Getting the Best Results

The closer the garment is to your skin, the more heat you will

feel. Further, it is recommended you wear an outer layer of

clothing to further trap the heat around your body.

The ActiVHeat®system will provide heat on the chest areas

and upper back for up to 5 hours of continuous use (on LOW

setting). You will get the best from your ActiVHeat®garment

by switching the Controller button as described below.

Normally you would switch your ActiVHeat®garment to HIGH

(Red) approximately 5 minutes before going outside. Depend-

ing upon the external temperature and how physically active

you are, you should then be able to switch the heat down to a

lower heat level or to OFF after approx. 15 - 20 minutes, as

the heat generated from your muscles will be sufficient to

keep you warm.

If you become inactive, or the temperature drops or you feel

cold, switch the heat on to HIGH immediately until you either

start moving again or you reach a comfortable temperature,

when you may be able to switch down the heat level.

Disconnect the Battery Pack from the garment when not in

use because even when it is turned off, the ActiVHeat®gar-

ment will continue to slowly drain power from the Battery Pack.

Operating time will be shorter than usual when the Battery

Pack is at low temperatures: you can use the Battery Pack be-

tween 32°-104°F, (0°-40°C) but it works best between 50°-86°

F (10°-30°C) so keep the Battery Pack out of the cold before

use. During use, the Battery Pack is inside your garment close

to your body heat and thus is within its normal operating tem-

perature range.

®garment can be found in the Frequently asked Questions

(FAQs) sections of our website www.activheat.com.

Safety Features

The ActiVHeat®heating system has been designed for safe

and reliable use. DO NOT replace or interfere with the electri-

cal components in the heated garment, the controller, the bat-

tery pack or the charger unit.

The ActiVHeat®system, including battery pack, is not de-

signed to be used under water. If the garment gets very wet

during use (such as in heavy rain) detach the Battery Pack

and do not use until the garment is fully dry. In addition, the

Battery Pack must never be immersed in water as this will

cause electrical faults. Keep all electrical parts dry.

Care and Washing Guide

IMPORTANT!:The Battery Pack and Controller must never get

wet. To avoid damaging your ActiVHeat®garment, before

washing you MUST:

1. Remove the Battery Pack from the garment,

2. Remove the Controller from the garment,

3. Replace the Cap onto the Garment socket in the Controller

Pocket; (see over) and

4. Close all zippers.

Washing

Your ActiVHeat garment

must be HAND WASHED

separately in cold water and

HANG DRY only.

• DO NOT WRING

• DO NOT BLEACH

• DO NOT IRON

• DO NOT DRY CLEAN

What happens if my heated garment gets torn?

DO NOT attempt to replace or interfere with the electrical com-

ponents in the ActiVHeat®garment. The ActiVHeat®jacket or

vest may not be repaired in any way as this may damage the

electrical parts.

Replacing a Used Battery Pack

The rechargeable Battery Pack will eventually stop charging

effectively. This is normal and is caused by several factors

including the number of times charged, the length of time un-

used and the ambient temperature. It will usually require re-

placement after about 500 charges. Go to

www.activheat.com to order battery packs and car accesso-

ries.

Note: Properly dispose of the used Battery Pack. Do not dispose by

general household refuse. Consult your local municipality for correct

disposal or recycling of lithium polymer rechargeable batteries.

What if my ActiVHeat®garment doesn't get warm?

1. Wait a few minutes to feel the warmth. The ActiVHeat®gar-

ment produces a gentle warmth not a sudden burst of heat.

2. Check the battery pack plug is connected to the charged

Battery Pack.

3. Check the ActiVHeat®controller is switched so the RED in-

dicator light comes on.

4. Ensure BOTH the controller plug and socket are securely

connected to the garment plug & socket. ( If only the control-

ler plug is connected, the Controller light may illuminate but

no power is going to the heating elements in your garment.)

5. Ensure the Battery Pack is switched ON & charged by plug-

ging the Battery Pack into the Charger in a wall outlet. If

there is a red light on the Battery Pack, it needs charging. It

is fully charged when a steady green light is on. If there is no

light when charging, check the charger plug is connected

tightly to the battery pack & ensure the battery pack slide

switch is ON. If there is immediately a flickering green light

then you need to slide to ON the Switch on the Battery

pack .

If you experience any discomfort while wearing this garment,

remove it immediately & consult your doctor before resuming

use. Children, pregnant women, and those with heart conditions

should consult their doctor before use.
