sensory or intellectual capacity or for use
by inexperienced and/or unknowledgeable
people unless they are supervised by a
person responsible for their safety or who has

responsible adult.
• This device must not be used to warm animals.
• The pockets protect the batteries from splashes.
Once attached to the boots, the batteries must
remain connected to the connection cords
whenever the boots are worn outside, firstly
to prevent moisture and dirt from entering the

secondly to prevent the battery case from being
opened accidentally.
• Use only the Therm-ic USB charger supplied
to charge the batteries.
• Do not wear the boots while the batteries are
charging.
• Do not insert metal or other objects into the
connectors or the USB charger as this may
damage the device.
• If you discover that the connection cords,
batteries or other parts of the boot are
damaged, the heating function must not
be used. After removal of the batteries,
the boots can be used as an ordinary pair.
• Never attempt to remove the protective

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 6

of explosion if the lithium-ion batteries are
handled inappropriately.
• Batteries which have damaged protective
films must not be used and must be disposed
of as soon as possible.
• Do not modify this device and donly use it for
its intended purpose. The parts of the device and
its connection cords should be repaired by the

ACTIVATING AND CHARGING THE BATTERIES
The batteries must be charged before first use.
1. Plug in the USB cable. The charge indicator
light (2.1) will light up green. Next, plug
the two boot connectors in to the charger.
The Boot Integrated System can be in any
mode at the start of charging. Charging will
start automatically and the charge indicator
light (2.1) turns red and remains on during
charging.
2. When the batteries are fully charged,
charging will stop automatically and the
LEDs in the charge indicator light (1.2) will
turn green again.
3. Unplug the two Boot Integrated System
connectors from the USB charger.
4. Connector trap on the Boot Integrated
System.
During and after charging, the Boot Integrated
System remains in the mode in which it was set
before charging.
It is recommended that you switch OFF
the Boot Integrated System during and

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 8
after after charging to keep it at full charge
when it is not in use.
Charging time is approximately 4-6hours.
Important advice:
• Recharge the batteries after each use to keep
them in good condition and to ensure the
Therm-ic Boot Integrated System is always
ready for use.
• Each battery is made up of lithium-ion cells.
It can be recharged in any state of charge.
Therefore, it is not necessary to discharge the
batteries completely before recharging.
Important:
Never try to open a battery pack!
There is a risk of explosion if the lithium-ion
batteries are handled inappropriately.
There is also a risk of damaging the electronic
components of the Boot Integrated System.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND DESCRIPTION
OF FUNCTIONS
The Therm-ic Boot Integrated System has
four modes: OFF and LEVELS 1, 2 and 3.
These modes are indicated by a heating
speed indicator light (1.1). The number of LED
flashes displayed indicates the heating level
selected.
The heating setting of the Therm-ic Boot
Integrated System can be set to 3 dierent
levels (level1, level2 and level3) using the
control zone, which consists of a single
button (1.2). The Therm-ic Boot Integrated
System is o when the LED heating level
indicator light is not lit.
Switching ON:

9
Press and hold down the function button (for
approx. 3 seconds) to set the Therm-ic Boot
Integrated System to the lowest heating level. If
the button is pressed for more than 6 seconds,
the boots will go into safety mode and switch o.
Adjustment:
Pressing the function button once (for approx.
1 second) will increase the heating setting
(level1, level2 or level3).
> Level 1: 1 flash, low heating setting.
> Level 2: 2 flashes, medium heating setting.
> Level 3: constant light, high heating setting. If
standby mode has been activated, you will first
need to wake up the system.
STANDBY mode:
If the button is not pressed for 10seconds, it will
go into standby mode. Pressing the function
button (for approx. 1second) will wake up the
device, returning it to the last heating level set.
OFF:
To switch o the Therm-ic Boot Integrated
System, press and hold the function button (for
3 seconds, until the heating level indicator light
switches o).
IMPORTANT USAGE ADVICE
• Charge the batteries before each use.
• Then, re-connect the battery to the boot (by
clipping on the plug). When switching on
the Therm-ic Boot Integrated System, do not
leave them set to level 3 for more than a few
minutes; continuous use at this setting risks
raising the temperature excessively and may
cause burns.
• Always set the Therm-ic Boot Integrated

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 10
System to the level 1 or level 2 setting to
keep your feet at a comfortable temperature
(the warming eect should be practically
imperceptible).
• The optimum heating temperature is reached
when the boots are dry.
HEATING SETTINGS
Level Heating duration per charge
1 17-19 hours
2 8-9 hours
3 4-5 hours
Measurements were made under laboratory
conditions directly on the heating element. The
heating duration per charge depends on the
heating level selected, the ambient temperature,
the age of the batteries and their charge level.
Therefore, the indicated heating durations
are provided only as a guideline and are not
contractual.
MAINTAINING, STORING AND LOOKING
AFTER THE BATTERIES
To prolong the life of the batteries, we
recommend you charge them to half capacity
and then store them in a cool place (at 5 °C
/ 41°F to 20°C / 68°F). During storage, the
batteries must not be connected to either the
boot or the USB charger.
Avoid prolonged periods when the batteries
are not in use. If storing the batteries for long
periods, discharge them and then recharge
them fully every 6months (for approx. 3hours).
Storing the battery packs correctly will maintain
their power level and life for longer.

DRYING AND CLEANING THE BOOTS
The drying temperature must not exceed 40 °C
/ 104 °F. Never dry the Boot Integrated System
in a tumble dryer or on a radiator. For optimum
drying, we recommend the Therm-ic Refresher
or the Therm-ic Dryer. For more information,
see the website www.therm-ic.com or your
local specialist retailer.
When the boots become dirty, clean them
with a damp cloth or a clothes brush.
The boots must never be machine washed or
hand washed.
DISPOSAL
When the boots reach the end of their life
cycle, dispose of them with their packaging
in accordance with applicable environmental
protection regulations and laws.
The batteries must be removed from the boots
and disposed of at a suitable collection point.
For further information, contact the relevant
local authority.
SPARE PARTS
If you wish to purchase spare parts at a later
date, you must specify the exact Therm-ic
model concerned. We recommend that you
take the part to be replaced to your retailer.
These instructions may be subject to change.
This product complies with all applicable laws
and directives.
