If you’ve just acquired a RELX Infinity 2 device and are new to vaping (or just new to this model), this guide will walk you through each step from unboxing to your first use, along with care tips and troubleshooting advice. By following these instructions, you can ensure that your device performs well, lasts longer, and gives you the better experience that RELX intends.
1. Unboxing and What’s Inside
When you first open the package, you should find:
- The RELX Infinity 2 device itself (the rechargeable battery/mod)
- A charging cable (usually USB-C)
- One or more RELX Infinity 2 pods (pre-filled or refillable, depending on model and market)
- A user manual / quick start guide
- A warranty card / authenticity label
Before use, check that all components are included, that nothing is damaged, and that the device and pods are sealed properly.
Also, verify the authenticity / anti-counterfeit labels on both the device and pods. The serial number or QR code should match between the packaging and the device/pod, depending on your region.
2. Charging Your RELX Infinity 2
Before your first use, charge the device fully to condition the battery:
- Connect the cable: Insert the USB-C cable into the charging port of the device.
- Plug into a power source: Use a wall adapter (5V / suitable current), or a trusted USB port.
- Observe charging indicator: The device’s LED or indicator lights should show charging in progress (e.g. pulsing or solid light).
- Wait until full: Charging to 100% may take around 1 hour (varies by battery state and adapter).
- Disconnect when full: Once the light indicates fully charged, unplug to avoid overcharging.
Good practices:
- Always use the original or high-quality USB-C cable and adapter to avoid damage.
- Charge in a cool, ventilated environment (avoid extreme heat) for battery longevity.
- Don’t leave the device plugged in overnight regularly — occasional top-ups are fine.
3. Installing the Pod
RELX Infinity 2 uses pods that house the e-liquid and coil (or heating element). The setup may vary slightly depending on whether your pod is pre-filled or refillable. Here’s how to install it:
- Remove the pod from packaging: Handle gently.
- If refillable, fill the pod (if needed):
- Open the fill port (often a small rubber or silicone stopper).
- Add e-liquid carefully, avoiding overfilling.
- Re-seal the port securely to avoid leaks.
- Insert the pod into the device:
- Align the pods’ contacts with the device’s magnetic or pin connections.
- Push in until it snaps or fits snugly. Some pods are magnetic and will “click” into place.
- Do not force it — incorrectly aligned insertion can damage contacts.
When installed properly, you may feel or hear a slight click or strong magnetic hold.
4. Priming (If Refillable Pod)
If your pod is refillable (i.e. it has a replaceable coil or wicking material inside), priming ensures that the wick is saturated before you vape:
- After filling, wait 2–5 minutes for the e-liquid to soak into the wick/coils.
- You might gently tilt or invert the device a few times so liquid reaches the wicking holes.
- Do a few “dry puffs” (short, gentle pulls without pressing fire button) to draw e-liquid into the coil.
Skipping priming can lead to dry hits, burnt taste, and damage to the coil.
5. Turning On / Powering On the Device
Depending on the RELX Infinity 2 model:
- Some devices auto-draw (you just inhale, and it activates).
- Others require you to press a power or fire button (often 5 clicks to turn on/off).
Check your model:
- If there’s a power button: click it rapidly 5 times to turn on or off.
- If it’s draw-activated, once the pod is inserted, inhaling should spark the heating element.
Once operational, the device may flash or light up when you puff — that confirms the pod is heating.
6. Vaping / Taking a Puff
With pod installed and device on:
- Bring the mouthpiece to your lips.
- Inhale gently, not aggressively (it’s not like a cigarette — you want smooth vapor).
- The device should activate and produce vapor.
- Exhale smoothly.
Key suggestions:
- Don’t inhale too hard — excessive draw may flood the coil or leak.
- Try short puffs initially to get used to vapor and throat feel.
- Take breaks between puffs, especially when trying a new flavor or nicotine strength.
7. Understanding Indicators and Feedback
RELX Infinity 2 devices generally include LED or light feedback to alert users to status:
- Battery level: The LED may show different colors or blink to indicate battery levels (full, medium, low).
- Pod/coil issues: If there’s a problem with the pod (e.g. no pod, misaligned, short, or low e-liquid), the device might blink or pulse.
- Overheating / protection: The device may shut off or disable firing temporarily if it senses a fault.
Familiarize yourself with these feedback signals via the user manual for your region, so you can interpret them properly.
8. Refilling or Replacing the Pod
Over time, you’ll need to refill or replace the pod/coil:
- When the flavor weakens, vapor production decreases, or you notice burnt or dry taste — that means the pod or coil is nearing its end.
- Refillable pods: Open the fill port and add more e-liquid, taking care not to overfill.
- Replaceable pods/coils: Remove the used pod and insert a new one as described previously.
- After refilling, allow priming time (as above) before vaping again.
9. Charging Midday (Top-Up Charging)
If you’re using the device all day:
- Monitor battery LED; when battery low, connect and recharge.
- A short top-up charge (10–20 minutes) can provide enough power for several additional puffs.
- Avoid depleting battery fully whenever possible — partial charges prolong battery life.
10. Care, Maintenance & Storage Tips
To keep your RELX Infinity 2 functioning well over time:
- Keep device and pod contacts clean: Use a dry cotton swab to gently wipe the pod contacts and device connection points.
- Avoid leaking / spills: Always close fill port firmly and keep the device upright when not in use.
- Store at moderate temperature: Avoid extreme heat or cold; batteries degrade faster in harsh conditions.
- Avoid overcharging: Unplug once fully charged.
- Use quality e-liquids (if refillable): Low-quality liquids may gunk coils faster.
11. Safety Precautions
To use the device responsibly and safely:
- Use only compatible pods and e-liquids for RELX Infinity 2 — incompatible hardware may malfunction.
- Keep away from children, pets, and non-users.
- Don’t expose device to water or humidity.
- Stop use if you experience unusual heat, leaking, or burning smells.
- If battery is damaged, stop use immediately and seek professional disposal.
12. Troubleshooting Common Issues
Here are some common issues new users face, and how to troubleshoot:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No vapor / device not heating | Pod not inserted properly, battery is low, or pod is faulty | Re-seat pod, check battery, try another pod |
| Burnt / dry hit | Coil or wick not primed or worn out | Wait after refilling to prime, replace pod |
| Leaking | Pod overfilled, seal not closed, or pod cracked | Reduce fill level, re-seat seal, replace pod |
| Battery drains too fast | High power use, extreme temperature, old battery | Reduce usage, keep temperature moderate, battery may be aging |
| Device not turning on | Battery dead or internal fault | Recharge, or if still not working, contact support |
Conclusion
Using the RELX Infinity 2 is straightforward once you understand the steps: charge the device, install and prime the pod, turn it on (if required), inhale gently, and keep everything clean and well-maintained. Pay attention to LED indicators, respect battery cycles, and treat the hardware carefully. Over time, you’ll get accustomed to your personal preferred draw style and pod lifetime.
