To use your heated jacket, connect the battery, power it on, and select your desired heat level. Here's a step-by-step guide:
-
Connect the Battery: Locate the battery pocket inside your jacket. Usually, this is on the inside left, near the bottom hem. Inside the pocket, you'll find a cable. Connect this cable to the battery pack. Be gentle and avoid pulling the cable forcefully.
-
Power On: Once the battery is connected, locate the power button or controller on the outside of the jacket. This is often a rubberized button, usually located on the left chest area. Press and hold this button for about three seconds.
-
Verify Power: After pressing the power button, an LED light should illuminate. This indicates that the jacket is on and heating.
-
Select Heat Level: Once the jacket is powered on, you can typically cycle through different heat levels by pressing the same power button again. Each press will usually change the color of the LED, indicating a different heat setting (e.g., low, medium, high). Refer to your jacket's manual for specific color codes and heat levels.
Important Considerations:
- Battery Life: Battery life varies depending on the heat setting and battery capacity. Check your jacket's manual for estimated run times.
- Safety: Do not use the jacket if it is wet. Disconnect the battery when not in use.
- Care Instructions: Refer to your jacket's manual for specific cleaning and care instructions. Most heated jackets require special washing procedures to protect the heating elements.
By following these steps, you should be able to safely and effectively use your heated jacket.
