Operating Features
Touchscreen Compatibility

Enhanced Grip
The palm area features wear-resistant anti-slip silicone patches. This design provides a better and more secure grip on handlebars, steering wheels, or other equipment, even on challenging surfaces or during intense activities.

Thermal and Windproof Protection

Water Resistance
The gloves are made from water-resistant materials, offering protection against light rain and splashes. Please note that these gloves are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water or used in heavy downpours. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to water penetration.

Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your HKXY gloves, follow these care instructions:
- Hand Wash Only: Wash the gloves by hand using mild soap and cold water.
- Do Not Bleach: Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents, as these can damage the fabric and water-resistant coating.
- Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the material and special features of the gloves.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Troubleshooting
- Issue: Touchscreen not responding.
Solution: Ensure the conductive fingertips are making full contact with the screen. If the issue persists, clean the glove fingertips and the device screen. Extreme cold can sometimes affect touchscreen sensitivity.
- Issue: Gloves feel cold or wet.
Solution: These gloves are designed for warmth and water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof for heavy rain or submersion. If used in very wet conditions, they may become damp. For extreme cold, consider layering or using gloves with higher insulation ratings. Ensure the zipper is fully closed to prevent cold air entry.
- Issue: Poor grip on handlebars.
Solution: Ensure the gloves are clean and dry. The anti-slip silicone on the palm works best when clean. If the silicone is worn, the grip may be reduced.
