INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

(See accompanying illustrations) Charge the batteries prior to first use. Use only the supplied charger. Plug both batteries into the charger cable. While recharging, the light on the charger will be RED. When the charging is complete, the light will be GREEN.
Note:

If the RED light is flashing, check the connection of the batteries to the cable.
If the LED flashes GREEN and RED then one battery is fully charged while the other is not yet full.

Black Diamond Solano Heated Gloves have a control button with an LED heat level indicator. The control button turns the heating system off and on and selects the heating level. The LED heat level indicator will be lit RED for high, YELLOW for medium, and GREEN for low.

Regulate Press once for MEDIUM (yellow). Press again for LOW (green) Press a third time for HIGH (red) again.
Turning off: Press & hold the control button for 2 seconds for “OFF”

Be careful when on HIGH (red) to avoid overheating your hands.
Set the power level LOW (green) or MEDIUM (yellow) to maintain a comfortable warmth. The heating should be almost unnoticeable.
The system is most effective when the gloves are dry.
Measured directly on the heating element under laboratory conditions the heating duration per charge depends on the selected heating level, the ambient temperature, and the user’s physical condition, as well as the charging condition of the batteries.
