Using your Electronic Cigarette for the First Time
|
To help you get started with your new electronic cigarette kit, here are some tips to using it for the first time:
- Please fully Read the User Manual that accompanied your new kit. Even if you have used an other type of device, instructions to its' use can vary between devices.
|
Charging the batteries
- Ensure you have connected the battery charger into the mains socket and the indicator light shows green.
|
|
- Carefully screw a battery into charger, observing that the battery tip flashes several times, to ensure it is connected to the charger. When connected the charger indicator light will show "Red" (Charging the battery).
|
 |
- When charging is complete the indicator light will turn "Green" (Battery is charged and ready for use).
|
 |
Preparing your Atomizer
|
- When you receive your kit for the first time, the cartridge attached to the atomizer contains no E.liquid, please remove this cartridge and dispose.
|
 |
- Attach a fresh cartridge from the cartridge box to the Atomizer, ensuring to remove all protective covers and seals to the cartridge (to stop the cartridge leaking during transit), then stand the atomizer on it's base for several minutes to allow the Atomizer to absorb the E.Liquid.

Using the device for the "First Time"
- When a battery is fully charged attach this battery to the atomizer, fitted with the fresh cartridge.
Note: If your device is a super e.cig, do not over tighten the atomizer on the battery. This will restrict the airflow and shorten the cartridge life. If you loosen the battery approx 15 degrees this will make the device operate efficiently.
- Inhale gently from the cartridge observing the battery indicator glowing, and ensuring the air-intake valve is not covered by your fingers, in short 2 second inhales, 3 to 4 times, to allow the atomizer to build up the vapour. Once the vapour has built up, continue to use the device like a cigarette, inhaling and exhaling the vapour.
- Enjoy the feeling of freedom, to enjoy nicotine without the carbon monoxide and tar of tobacco based cigarettes!

Care and maintenance of your electronic cigarette
|
Length of cartridge life:
- This will depend slightly on what type of smoker you are – heavy or light. The manufacturers state that one cartridge is equivalent to 20 cigarettes, but our customers have found that one cartridge is roughly equivalent to 7 – 15 cigarettes.
|
To clean you atomiser:
- There are several tips on the forums, but the best way is to get some canned air, and blow this through the atomiser. Blow through the small hole (i.e the battery end, as this will blow out any debris), do this last thing at night, and the atomiser is then clean and ready for use the next day. Don't forget to also blow through the small side hole in the atomiser.
- If the E.Liquid has dried onto the atomizer and/or the battery connectors (the gold/brass area's), using a cotton wool bud and thinners (nail polish remover for example, used in a well ventilated area), in a circular motion, gently clean off the dried liquid. This will ensure good electronic connectivity between the battery and the atomizer.

 |
Before going to bed disconnect the battery from the atomiser,
- batteries can drain over night as they are in standby mode when not being used.
|
How often to charge your battery:
- When you first receive your kit, your batteries may be part charged, so you may only need to charge them for a few hours, not the full 8 hours that the manual states. Once you are using your Electronic Cigarette, have one battery on charge while you are using the other, and you may find that in use, one battery will last 3 – 4 hours before needing to be re-charged.
