SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM BATTERIES
WARNING –
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, burst hazard, or injury to persons or property:
Lithium batteries are small, compact and ideal for providing long-lasting power to this unit. However, they must be used and charged
properly. Improper use can result in serious injury, fire, or death.
• Lithium batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition. Do not use the product in the presence of an open flame.
• Do not place this lithium battery powered unit in fire or apply heat to it.
• Do not subject this lithium battery powered unit to strong impacts or shocks. The battery in this unit contains safety and protection devices
which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, rupture or ignite.
• Do not expose the lithium battery to water or salt water, or allow the battery to get wet.
• Avoid storing this lithium battery powered unit in the basement, bathroom or other areas of the house that are or may become wet or where
humidity and moisture may concentrate.
• Do not leave this lithium battery powered unit in direct sunlight, or use or store the unit inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the
battery to generate heat, rupture, or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life
expectancy.
• Never charge this unit near heat or flammable objects.
•
NEVER THROW WATER ON A BURNING LITHIUM BATTERY!
If a lithium battery does catch on fire, it will burn even
more violently if it comes in contact with water or even moisture in the air. A fire extinguisher must be used.
Battery Charging and Capacity
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it for the first time.
When stored at room temperature with a full charge, lithium batteries will begin to discharge from the time they are manufactured, even when
unused. Deep discharges also decrease their capacity. Battery life can be extended by the following:
• Charge battery to full capacity before storage.
• Optimal storage temperature for this unit is between 5°C and 20°C (41°F and 68°F).
• Never discharge the battery fully.
• Charge after each use.
• Always charge at least once every 3-6 months if not in frequent use to prevent overdischarge.
Transportation of lithium batteries
• Always check all applicable local, national, and international regulations before transporting a unit containing a lithium battery.
• Transporting an end-of-life, damaged, or recalled battery may, in certain cases, be specifically limited or prohibited.
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO THE WEATHER-RESISTANT HEADBAND
LIGHT
The lens, Power/Light Mode Button and the bushing of USB charging cord act to preserve the weather-resistant qualities of the light and
prevent water from entering the gap. An undamaged lens, power button and the bushing of the USB charging cord before use are very
important.
CAUTION –
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
Use of the unit with a damaged lens, Power/Light Mode Button or the bushing of USB charging cord, and/or submerging the light in water
may cause the light to no longer be weather-resistant. Do not use the light if these conditions exist or it could sustain permanent damage.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CHARGING/RECHARGING
This unit is shipped in a partially charged state. Fully charge the unit after purchase and before first use using built-in USB plug until the two
Red LED Area Lights light.
Recharge after each use until the two Red LED Area Lights light.
IMPORTANT: When the unit is not in use, we recommend that the battery is charged at least every 3 to 6 months.
Procedure
1. Make sure the headlamp is turned off.
2. Remove the built-in USB plug from the sheath on the head strap.
3. Insert the built-in USB plug into a working USB power port. The two Red LED Area Lights will flash to indicate the unit is charging.
4. Charge until the two Red LED Area Lights light.
5. When charging is complete, disconnect the built-in USB plug from the USB power port. Make sure the built-in USB plug is properly
inserted back into the sheath on the head strap whenever the unit is stored or not in use.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Once it begins charging, the headlamp will not operate until the built-in USB plug is disconnected.
If the built-in USB plug is plugged into a working USB power port while the headlamp is operating, the light will shut off and the unit will begin charging.
If the battery of the unit is overheated (due to extensive use or recharging) or is too cold (the ambient temperature has dropped below -20°C) during the charging process, the
two Red LED Area Lights will flash rapidly. The charging process will stop at this stage and will automatically resume after a cool down/warming period.
