ION BATTERY
Your ThermoCharge 2-in-1 device has an internal, 4400 mAh
rechargeable lithium ion battery, which allows for up to 6 hours
of continuous use at a constant temperature of 40° to 45° Cel-
sius (104° to 113° Fahrenheit). Your ThermoCharge ships with a
partial charge, but you should charge it completely before using
it for the first time.
Follow these steps to charge the internal battery:
1. Attach the Mini USB connector end of the included USB cable
to the Mini USB “in” port (1) on your ThermoCharge.
2. Plug the standard USB plug end of the cable into a USB port
on a PC, laptop, car charger or USB 5V-500mA adapter plug.
3. Once plugged in, the blue LED (2c) will start to blink, indicat-
ing that charging is in progress.
4. Charging is complete when the blue LED (2c) stops blinking.
NOTE: The ThermoCharge is designed with overcharge protec-
tion to prevent damage to the internal battery
2. USING THE HAND WARMER FEATURE

heat up. In minutes, it will reach its maximum temperature and
you will feel the heat being conducted through the aluminum
housing.
• Press the on/off button again to turn ThermoCharge off.
• Use the included caps when extra protection is needed. These
silicone caps help repel moisture and protect the device should
it be dropped on a hard surface.
3. CHARGING AN EXTERNAL DEVICE
