InstructionDisclaimer
Dennis Kirk provides instructions to help our customers better understand how to install the
products we sell. The instructions are exact copies of what the manufacturer includes with the
product being sold.
That means the quality and accuracy of the instructions is solely dependent on what the
manufacturer produces. We do our best to make the text legible and the pictures viewable.
However, the end result depends largely on the quality of instructions the manufacturer
provides.
Therefore, you will find that some instructions are not of the highest quality. Sometimes text is
hard to read and pictures are not easy to see. At times you will find the overall look of the
instructions to be less than professional. However, we feel it is better to provide what we have
rather than provide nothing at all.
To the best of our knowledge the instructions and application information contained in the
instructions is accurate. However, Dennis Kirk assumes no liability related to any errors that
may be contained in the copy of the manufacturer’s instructions we provide. Buyers are solely
responsible to insure that product use is consistent with their application.
800-969-7501 so we can further assist you regarding additional product information or any other
business related questions.
Thank you for doing business with Dennis Kirk.
Using Your Portable Heat-Troner
1.
Turn the knob
of
the Heat-Troller to the "off' position. Attach the plug
of
the Heat-Troller marked "power in" to the
connecting plug on the battery harness.
2.
Attach the plug marked "power out" directly to the garment. Turn the knob on, and the L.E.D. should begin
to blink. When the light stays on without blinking, it
is
on full power.
3.
Remember -the plug marked "power in" always goes to the power source; the one marked "power out"
always goes to the garment. If the Heat-Troller is not plugged
in
correctly, it will not work correctly.
4.
With the Heat-Troller turned
OFF,
the
L.ED.
should be OFF. When you turn the Heat-Troller
ON
the
L.ED.
will start
to flash; increasing
in
rate as you turn the Heat-Troller knob to full. When on full, the
L.ED.
will stop blinking &
will stay lit.
5.
If you have a Dual Portable Heat-Troller, you notice that there is one red and one yellow dot on the knobs.
The red
L.ED.
is
your primary control & goes to the grey
or
grey/red cable connector. The yellow
controls the black
or
black/yellow cable connector. Remember, on a Dual Heat-Troller, if you have the
power
in
polarity reversed then the red L.E.D. will be yellow and the yellow
L.ED.
will not turn on.
Troubleshooting Information
1.
If your Heat-Troller does not operate, check all connections for tightness & the wires for proper connection.
2.
Make sure the battery harness is plugged directly to the battery and not to a fuse block & polarity
is
correct.
3.
If you are using a BMW® power adapter made by some other company, check to see if the wires
inside have come loose. Check the BMW® socket
is
fused for enough draw and NEVER use the BMW®
power port on a CAN BUS system.
4. If the knob is too hard
or
too easy to turn, loosen the screw on the knob & adjust the knob & o-ring against the
nut
of
the switch then retighten the knob set screw.
5.
If your unit fails, contact us to help diagnose the problem.
Guidelines for Using Your
Heat
-Troner
To
reduce
the risk
of
burns, electric
shock
or
fire, the Heat-Troller
must
be
used
in
accordance
with
the
following
instructions:
Use
the
Heat-Troller
only
on
DC
power
with
properly
rated
power
source, this includes a rechargable
battery
or
an
AC
to DC
power
adapter.
The
output
cord (marked
power
out)
of
the Heat-troller is intended
for
use
only
with
approved heated items.
Other
devices
such
as
Battery
Tenders
should
not
be
connected
directly
to
the
Heat-Troller.
Do
not
use
a
Battery
Tender
power
harness. It is
not
designed
for
the
greater
draw
of
heated clothing.
For
safety
reasons, the Heat-Troller should
not
be
put
in the
pocket
of
heated apparel while it is being used.
Read
through the installation instructions and
warranty
information in
this
booklet before installing
your
Heat-Troller.
Broken
wires
or
shorts in
your
heated clothing
can
damage
your
Heat-Troller, even though
the
clothing
may
appear
to function normally.
If
your
Heat-Troller fails
to
function correctly,
we
suggest
you
immediately
check
your
clothing
for
shorts. You can find
simple
instructions
for
testing on
our
website.
If
the Heat-troller fails,
after
checking
and fixing a short, you can turn the switch
off
and
then on.
This
will reset it.
IMPORTANT!
This
Heat-Troller
has
been
equipped with a resettable
cut-off
which
will
cause
the unit to stop working if
there
is a
short
in the clothing
or
wires
for
your
protection.
Just
turn
off
the
Heat-Troller, repair
the
problem, and
then
turn it
back
on.
CAUTION!
It is
possible
to overload
your
vehicle's charging
system
by
adding
too
many
electrical accessories.
If
your
combined
accessories
use
more
electrical
current
than
your
vehicle's charging
system
can produce,
the
consumption
can
discharge
the battery, leading
to
electric
system
damage.
Ask
your
dealer
or
see
your
owner's
manual
for
advice
about
the
amount
of
current
consumed
by
additional electrical accessories.
