Kinetic function:
When deceleration of the 
bicycle is detected, the light 
will turn on in the High mode 
for approximately 2.5 seconds 
regardless of the lighting 
mode selected. The light will 
remain on in the High mode 
as long as deceleration is 
detected.

WARNING!!!

•  Before your trip, please make sure the light is 

securely attached and lights up. 

Do not use a damaged rubber band.

•  Always pay attention to the remaining battery power 

by checking the indicator periodically while using.

CAUTION!

•  This light detects deceleration through the use of 

acceleration sensor. Please note that activation of 

the Kinetic function depends on the degree of 

deceleration, the light may not react or the 

reaction may be delayed.

•  Stop your bicycle to operate the switch.
•  Keep the light away from children.
•  Charging, discharging, and storing in high 

temperatures will cause the rechargeable battery 

to deteriorate faster. Do not place the light inside 

a vehicle or near a heater.

•  This unit is not totally waterproof. Please wipe 

and dry it completely after using in rain. 

Otherwise, it may cause failure.

•  If the light unit or parts become dirty with mud, 

etc., clean with a soft cloth which is moistened 

with mild soap. Never apply paint thinner, benzine 

or alcohol; damage will result.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHARGING

•  We recommend using 500+mA (USB2.0) USB 

battery charger.

•  Avoid charging in direct sunlight or in a vehicle 

parked under direct sunlight, and make sure to 

charge only when the ambient temperature is 

between 5 and 40°C (41°F and 104 °F).

•  Before charging, be sure that no dust or other 

foreign objects attach to the USB plug. 

•  Do not subject the light to vibrations while charging.
•  When your PC is in sleep state, the unit cannot be 

charged.

•  Once charging is complete, be sure to disconnect 

the USB plug.

•  Charging and lighting times are approximate values, 

and will vary by environmental and user conditions. 

• If the illumination time is significantly reduced 

even after proper charging, the rechargeable 

battery may be nearing the end of its service life. 

Dispose of the battery as described in “PRECAU-

TIONS ON DISPOSAL”.

Cool and dry storage is recommended. 

For long period storage, it is important to charge the 

battery 30 minutes every 6 months.
