Heated clothing is revolutionizing the way we stay warm during cold weather. Designed with advanced carbon fiber heating technology, ARRIS heated clothing offers adjustable warmth at the touch of a button, making them perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, commuters, and anyone looking to combat the chill.

If you're new to heated clothing, this guide will walk you through the basics, including how it works, proper usage, and tips for cleaning and maintaining your heated apparel to ensure longevity and safety.

1. How Heated Clothing Works

1) The Technology Behind Heated Clothing
Heated clothing uses cutting-edge heating elements—such as carbon fiber technology—that generate warmth when powered by a rechargeable battery. These heating elements are strategically embedded in the garment to provide consistent and targeted heat to areas like your back, chest, and hands.

The temperature is adjustable, allowing you to customize the warmth to your preference. Thanks to advanced engineering, these heating systems are energy-efficient, safe to use, and built to provide stable temperatures even in extreme conditions.

2) Safety First
All quality heated clothing includes built-in safety features, such as temperature regulators and short-circuit protection, ensuring your comfort and peace of mind while using the product.

2. How to Use Heated Clothing Properly

Initial Setup

1) Charge the battery. 

• Charge the Battery: Fully charge the provided battery before first use to maximize its efficiency. The lastest version batteries include digital screen, so you'll know when charging is completed.
• Connect the Battery: Insert the charged battery into the garment’s designated pocket and securely connect it to the power cable.

2) Adjusting the Heat Settings

• ARRIS heated clothing features intuitive controls to switch between 5 heat levels. The three buttons also control 8 different heat zones. Customers can choose the comfortable heat levels and heat zones according to meet their different needs. Choose a low setting for mild weather, a medium setting for general outdoor activities, and a high setting for extreme cold conditions.

3) Safety Tips for Use

• Make sure the DC cord is completely dry. Avoid using the heated clothing if the DC cord that comes in the clothing which connects to battery is wet.
• Inspect the garment for any visible damage before each use. 

3. Cleaning and Maintenance of Heated Clothing

Proper care is essential to maintain the functionality and longevity of your heated clothing.

1) Cleaning Instructions

• Preparation: Always remove the battery and disconnect any cables before washing.
• Machine Washing: Place the garment inside a laundry bag to protect the heating elements and use a gentle cycle with cold water.
• Hand Washing: Use a mild detergent and gently scrub the garment without wringing or twisting it.
• Drying: Lay the garment flat to air dry. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as excessive heat can damage the heating elements.

2) Maintenance Tips

• Store your heated clothing in a cool, dry place when not in use.
• Regularly check the heating elements and wiring for wear or damage.
• Charge the battery periodically during extended storage to maintain its performance.

Taking good care of your heated clothing ensures it continues to perform as designed. Proper cleaning and storage not only extend the lifespan of the garment but also maintain its safety features and heating efficiency.
