Always charge your battery for 4 hrs prior to using it for the 1st time, do not be tempted to use before hand even if the light on charger turns green before 4 hrs is up.

Keep the electronic cigarette vertical, with the cartridge at the top and the batttery below, if you have nothing to keep it upright while not in use lay it flat on a table, try not to let the battery be higher than the cartridge.

Do not stress to much you will soon learn how to smoke the electronic cigarette, there is a slight learning curve.
