XROS 5 Nano: Screen shows 'OVER TIME' and device stops working

The screen displays 'OVER TIME' and the device cuts out mid-vape. This is the 8-second overtime protection activating and stopping the device from firing.

Why this happens

  • The fire button has been held down, or a draw has lasted longer than 8 seconds, triggering the built-in overtime cut-off
  • The fire button is being pressed accidentally while the device is in a pocket or bag, causing it to fire unattended until the cut-off kicks in
  • The device has been left powered on and something is pressing against the fire button

How to fix it

  1. Release the fire button or stop drawing as soon as the 'OVER TIME' message appears. The 8-second cut-off is a safety protection, so the device will resume normal operation once you start a fresh, shorter puff.
  2. Keep each draw under 8 seconds. Most inhales are well within this limit, so if you are regularly hitting the cut-off, try shorter, more frequent draws instead.
  3. Turn the device off when you are not actively using it. This prevents accidental firing in a pocket or bag from triggering the overtime protection repeatedly.
