QUICK START GUIDE PRIMING THE ATOMIZER HEAD

For those familiar with e-cigarettes, the steps below can be followed to allow the
device to be used in the shortest possible time:

• Prime the atomizer head

• Fill the tank

• Switch the Tornado NC on

• Press the power button and inhale

• Charge the battery (it will may not have been shipped with a full charge)

4 5

It is important to “prime” a new atomizer head before first use. Failure to do so
can damage the atomizer head.

Grip the airflow adjuster and unscrew the tank from the battery. Holding the
tank by the airflow adjuster, unscrew the top cap and tank glass. Prime the fitted
atomizer by dripping a few drops of e-liquid onto the heating element and the
cotton inside it. Screw the top cap and tank glass back onto the tank base, then
screw the tank back onto the battery.

Note: Leave a new atomizer head to sit in a tank full of e-liquid for five
minutes before vaping. This ensures the atomizer head is fully saturated with
e-liquid before use.

PRIMING THE ATOMIZER HEAD FILLING THE TANK

Slide the top cap open by
pushing firmly in the indicated
direction to expose the fill
hole. Insert the filling nozzle
into the fill hole and fill the
tank being careful not to
overfill. Slide the top cap shut
after filling.

Note: To avoid leaking,
ensure an air gap of around
2mm remains above the

e-liquid after filling.

Atomizer Head Lifespan

Atomizer heads do not last forever
and need to be replaced periodically.
Lifespan is generally from a few days
to several weeks, depending on
power used, vaping style, flavour and
type of e-liquid. A slight burnt taste,
general loss of vapour production, or
a reduction in flavour intensity can all
be indicators that the atomizer head
requires replacement.

Switching On and Off

To switch the Tornado NC on or off,
quickly press the power button five
times. The indicator light will flash three
times when switched on or off.

Vaping

Press and hold the power button as
you gently inhale the vapour, release
the power button when you have
finished inhaling. The indicator light will
illuminate while the power button is held
down, and will illuminate again after
vaping to show battery condition. See
Battery Life Indication for a description
of each light condition.

Adjusting Airflow

If you find the airflow too airy or
too tight, rotate the airflow adjuster
to expose less or more of the slot.
Experiment to find your preference.

Changing Output Modes

The Tornado NC has 2 modes, constant
voltage or direct output. Constant
voltage produces less heat, power
and vapour, but delivers a consistent
vape experience whether the battery is
fully charged or nearly depleted. Direct
output produces more heat, power
and vapour for a more intense vaping
experience, but you may notice power
and vapour production decrease as
the battery charge depletes. To switch

between constant voltage and direct
output modes, switch the battery off
by pressing the power button 5 times,
then press and hold the power button;
the indicator light will illuminate white
for direct output mode or orange for
constant voltage mode. Switching the
battery back on activates the selected
mode.

E-liquid Level

To prevent the atomizer head from
becoming dry and burning prematurely,
ensure the tank remains at least ¼ full
at all times.

Battery Life Indication

The indicator light will relight 2 seconds
after vaping, and for the following
4 seconds will show the battery life
remaining. Illumination will remain
constant if the battery has full charge,

and as the level of charge decreases
the indicator light will flash faster. The
table below can be used as a reference

Battery Percentage Light Condition
100-60% Stays Lit
59-30% Flashes slowly
29-10% Flashes moderately
9-0% Flashes quickly

Charging the Battery

Insert the supplied USB cable into
the Tornado NC charging port, and
connect the other end to a USB
port or suitable wall adaptor. The
indicator light will illuminate red
while charging. When fully charged,
the indicator light will switch off.
The Tornado NC can be used
normally while charging.

Replacing the Atomizer Head

Unscrew the tank from the battery,
invert the tank, and unscrew the
tank base from the top cap and
tank glass. Remove the fitted
atomizer head by gently pulling
on one end of the atomizer head.
The atomizer head should pull
away easily from the base. Place
one end of the new atomizer head
into the base, compress the metal

part of the atomizer head slightly,
and gently push the other end into
place. Before using a new atomizer
head it must be primed, please
see Priming the Atomizer Head and
Filling the tank for more information.
Ensure the wicking material is
evenly disposed along the length
of the metal part of the atomizer
head, and protrudes evenly from
both ends of the slot in the tank

base. Refit the tank base to the top
cap and tank glass, and refit the
assembled tank to the battery.

Reminder: Leave a new atomizer
head to sit in a tank full of
e-liquid for five minutes before
vaping. This ensures the atomizer
head is fully saturated with
e-liquid before use.

USING YOUR TORNADO NC KIT PROTECTIONS

Replacing the Atomizer Head

Atomizer Head Protection

If the power button is held down for
longer than 15 seconds while vaping,
the indicator light will flash 10 times and
the Tornado NC will refuse to power
or produce any vapour. Releasing the
power button allows normal operation
to resume.

Low Voltage Protection

If battery voltage drops to 3.3 volts, the
indicator light will flash 40 times and

the Tornado NC will switch off. Charge
the Tornado NC using the procedure
outlined in Charging the Battery to allow
normal operation to resume.

Incompatible Atomizer Head
Resistance

If the atomizer head resistance is below

0.3ohm, the indicator light will quickly
flash 5 times when pressing the power
button. If the atomizer head resistance
exceeds 3.0ohm, the indicator light will

14 15

PROTECTIONS

flash slowly when pressing the power
button. Replacing the atomizer head
with one of a compatible resistance
above 0.3ohm and below 3.0ohm will
allow normal operation to resume.

Short Circuit Protection

If an atomizer short circuit occurs, the
indicator light will flash 5 times and the
Tornado NC will switch off. Replace the
atomizer head by following the steps
outlined in Replacing the Atomizer

Head, then follow the procedure
outlined in Charging the Battery to
restore power and allow normal
operation to resume.

Cleaning and Maintenance

The Tornado NC battery and tank
connection can be cleaned by wiping
down with tissue or a dry cloth. The tank
can be cleaned after removing it from
the battery and removing the atomizer
head from the tank base; then the top

PROTECTIONS KIT CONTENTS

cap, tank glass and tank base can be
cleaned under hot running water. Allow
the tank to fully dry before refitting
the atomizer head into the tank base.
Reassemble the tank.

Note: Do not attempt to clean the
battery or atomizer head with water.
