3. For additional burst of heat, set to "timed setting 4". "Timed setting
4" auto-resets to setting 3 after 3 minutes.
4. DO NOT USE "TIMED SETTING 4" or "CONTINUOUS SETTING
4" for more than three minutes at a time as it may become too hot
and may result in burns. SEE CAUTIONS REGARDING BURNS.
5. Heat does not thermostatically cycle on and off. Settings 1 and 2
maintain warmth AND save energy.
1. Expect imperceptible heat to maintain comfort and warmth.
2. Do not expect "fireplace toes".
3. Learn what personally works best over time.
4. Think of your FootWarmer as Thermo Active Insulation (TM). As
cold penetrates through insole, it draws heat off Element rather than
toes. Balanced heat is imperceptible yet maintains comfort and
warmth. Too much heat and feet feel excess heat. Too little heat and
feet feel cold penetrating through.
5. If feet are comfortable yet feel excess heat, turn to lower setting to
minimize perspiration and maximize battery duration.
6. If feet begin to feel cool, turn setting up to maintain comfort and
warmth.
7. If you think FootWarmer is not working, try turning left Battery Pack
off. If left foot becomes colder, FootWarmer is working.
8. Ability to feel heat and maintain comfort and warmth depends
upon: proper installation; type, fit, and dryness of footwear, sock,
and insole; foot callus size; activity levels; weather conditions; and
other factors.
9. Expect bottom of toes to feel heat less than fingers and hands.
When first learning use of FootWarmer, following chart may help in
setting selection. Chart represents approximate ranges for comfort and
warmth maintenance. First determine outside temperature then select
setting based on personal sensitivity to cold. More sensitive select left of
range. Less sensitive select right.

1. Extremely poor circulation or extremely cold conditions may
require setting 2 or 3 for comfort and warmth. Extra Battery Packs
extend all day comfort and warmth.
2. Do not allow chair lift to hit you! Damage may result to you and
your FootWarmer.
3. Be careful walking down stairs! Battery Packs may catch stair edge
when mounted on back of boots.
4. Place heated insole (fabric surface up) directly underneath socked
foot. Do not place another insole over heated insole.
5. Proper fitting boots help maintain comfort and warmth. Tight boots
and improper fit restrict blood flow and compromise comfort and
warmth.
1. If boots and socks are wet, expect cold feet.
2. Wet conductive heat loss is 23 times greater than dry heat loss. (W.
