USING YOUR TORNADO GTL
PRIMING THE ATOMIZER HEAD
It is important to “prime” a new atomizer head before first use. Failure to do
so can damage the atomizer head.
Remove the cartridge from the battery by pulling upwards. Prime one of the
atomizer heads for the kit by dripping a few drops of e-liquid onto the cotton
inlets on the side of the atomizer head. Insert the atomizer head into the
cartridge by pushing and reattaching the cartridge to the battery.
ATOMIZER HEAD LIFESPAN
Atomizer heads do not last forever and need to be replaced periodically.
Lifespan is generally from a few days to several weeks, depending on the power
used, vaping style, flavour and type of e-liquid. A slightly burnt taste,
general loss of vapour production, or a reduction in flavour intensity can all
be indicators that the atomizer head requires replacement.
FILLING THE CARTRIDGE
Slide the top of the cartridge in the direction indicated by the arrow on the
top cap. Fill the cartridge, ensuring an air gap of approximately 2mm is left
over the e-liquid, to avoid airlocks.
Slide back over the cartridge to close. On first filling with a new atomizer
head, wait for 5 minutes for the atomizer head to fully prime before using.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
To switch the Tornado GTL on or off, quickly press the power button five
times. The indicator light will flash three times when switched on or off.
VAPING
Press and hold the power button as you gently inhale the vapour, release the
power button when you have finished inhaling. The indicator light will
illuminate while the power button is held down. The Tornado GTL also has a
vacuum-activated switch. Simply switch the device on and inhale on the
mouthpiece for automatic operation.
Please note: Due to the sensitivity of the automatic switch, the vacuum-
activated mode will only work with certain airflow settings. If this mode is
not working, try adjusting the airflow to a less “open” setting.
ADJUSTING AIRFLOW
If you find airflow too airy or too tight, rotate the airflow adjuster to
expose fewer or more holes of different sizes. Experiment to find your
preference.
CHANGING OUTPUT MODES
The Tornado GTL has 3 power settings –Red = Low, Blue = Medium, Green = High.
The LED surrounding the button indicates these settings. It only shows the
power setting while adjusting the power, and not in normal operation, when the
LED colour indicates battery charge. To step through these settings, with the
device switched on, press the power button three times in quick succession.
The LED will stay illuminated for a couple of seconds, indicating the current
power setting.
E-LIQUID LEVEL
To prevent the atomizer head from becoming dry and burning prematurely, ensure
the remaining e-liquid never drops below the 4 fluid feed holes around the
bottom of the atomizer head.
BATTERY LIFE INDICATION
The battery indication for the Tornado GTL kit is measured in three phases,
100-60% (Green LED), 59-20% (Blue LED), and <20% (Red LED). The LED colour
will indicate the current battery level when the power button is pressed for
normal operation and in automatic operation.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
Insert the supplied USB-C cable into the Tornado GTL charge port, and connect
the other end of the charging cable to a USB port or suitable wall adaptor.
The indicator light will flash the LED at the current battery level, when
fully charged, the indicator light will switch off. The Tornado GTL can be
used whilst charging.
REPLACING THE ATOMIZER HEAD
To replace the atomizer head in the Tornado GTL, remove the cartridge from the
device by pulling straight up, invert the cartridge 180 degrees and remove the
atomizer head by pulling. If the cartridge is full, or nearly full of
e-liquid, there will be some leakage from the mouthpiece, so it is best to do
this over a piece of tissue paper. Prime a new atomizer head and insert it
into the cartridge by pushing.
Note: Leave a new atomizer head to sit in a cartridge full of e-liquid
for five minutes before vaping. This ensures the atomizer head is fully
saturated with e-liquid before use.
PROTECTIONS
ATOMIZER HEAD PROTECTION
If the power button is held down for longer than 10 seconds while vaping, the
indicator light will flash 5 times and the Tornado GTL will refuse to power or
produce any vapour.
Releasing the power button allows normal operation to resume.
LOW VOLTAGE PROTECTION
If the battery voltage drops to 3.3 volts, the indicator light will flash 20
times and the Tornado GTL will switch off. Charge the Tornado GTL using the
procedure outlined in
Charging the Battery to allow normal operation to resume.
SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION
If an atomizer short circuit occurs, the indicator light will flash 5 times
and the Tornado GTL will switch off. Replace the atomizer head by following
the steps outlined in Replacing the Atomizer Head.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The Tornado GTL battery and cartridge connection can be cleaned by wiping down
with tissue or a dry cloth. The cartridge can be cleaned by removing it from
the battery and removing the atomizer head from the cartridge; the entire
cartridge and cartridge base can be cleaned under warm running water. Allow
the cartridge to dry fully before refitting the atomizer head. Reassemble the
cartridge. Wipe the connector and area under the cartridge dry regularly to
ensure reliable operation.
Note: To prevent damaging the atomizer head, do not allow it to come into
contact with water. Do not submerge the Tornado GTL battery unit in water or
allow it to get wet.
