RECHARGEABLE BATTER
Y MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF PROPERLY.
See recycling information that came with your Coleman Battery Lantern.
Carefully read all instructions before use and
save for future reference.
TO CHARGE BATTER
Y
When the battery is fully discharged, it will take
16 to 18 hours to fully recharge it. To obtain
maximum performance, charge for 18 hours
for the first three cycles. Always charge the
battery immediately after use whenever
possible. Charge indoors using household
source. On a full charge, the continuous run
time is up to 9 hours on LOW and 6 hours on
HIGH. Total run time will increase if the unit is
turned on and off intermittently.
Do not leave the lantern turned on after the battery has stopped, as overdischarging the batter
y can
cause problems in recharging the battery to a full charge. If this does occur
, immediately switch the
lantern off and recharge for 40 hours. After an extended period of storage (more than 6 months),
recharge for the full 16 hours or more.
The light can be recharged after first charging from either a 120-volt AC wall outlet in your home or
garage using the 120-volt AC adapter, or from a 12-volt DC receptacle in a car
, boat, or RV , using the
12-volt DC cigarette plug. The 12-volt DC cigarette plug is equipped with an internal, resetable-fuse in
case of power surges.
The 12-volt DC cigarette plug and 120-volt AC adapter are stored inside the base of the unit. There is a
small door that is accessible on bottom of base. (See Fig. A)
The LED nightlight can be utilized while lantern is being charged. This lantern is also equipped with an
emergency on feature. If the lantern is set to the Low or High setting while charging and power is
disrupted, the lantern will turn on.
CAUTION:
The 12-volt DC cigarette plug was designed to avoid internal short circuits, however
, it
may be possible to blow the fuse in some USA vehicles when only the small plug from the lantern is
disconnected and the large cigarette
plug remains connected to the 12V
DCcigarette lighter socket.
In this situation, if the small plug contacts the metal of the vehicle, the fuse may blow! Therefore,
always remove the large cigarette plug from the cigarette lighter socket first! This caution applies
to any vehicle, RV , boat, etc., in which the 12-volt DC cigarette plug is used.
NOTE:
On some automobiles, the cigarette lighter receptacle is turned on and off by the ignition switch.
To Charge: Connect the small end of the proper adapter cord to the hole in the lantern
collar. Connect the other end of the adapter to the appropriate electrical outlet. See Figure 1.
A small red light located on the body, next to the adapter cord hole, will glow when the
charger is connected correctly. If the red light is not on, the lantern is not being recharged.
