Battery Installation
Unscrew the tail cap (Fig. 1) and insert battery pack (Fig. 2) into the barrel. The
positive (+) end—this is the end with a button—goes into the barrel first. Now
screw on the tail cap and make sure it’s tight.
NOTE: Large end of the battery spring must be snapped into the tailcap.
WARNING:
Do not “short” or “ground out” battery pack to “deeply
discharge”. Doing so is hazardous and will damage the battery pack.
Operation

Push button switch.
Focus -
Rotate head of flashlight to adjust from a wide flood

Your Flashlight’s Function Sets and the Functions Within Each Set
As the chart below shows, your MAGLITE® ML125™ flashlight is capable of five different functions
– Full Power, PowerSave (25% power), Strobe (flashes 12 times per second), SOS Signal (the
International Morse Code distress signal) and Momentary On/Off (stays on only while the switch
button is held down). Not all of these functions are equally important to every user. That is why
these functions are organized into four different function sets – so that you can personalize your
flashlight to suit your needs, configuring it for quickest access to the functions that best match your
preference.
How To Choose A Function Within a Set
The available function sets, and the functions within each one, are shown in the following table:
As it comes out of the package, your
MAGLITE®
ML125™ LED flashlight is set to the
“Standard” function set (
Function Set #1
in the chart). If you require only those three
functions (Full Power, PowerSave and Strobe), then you never have to change it. You can
select a function within that set by
the “Quick Click” method:
Turn the flashlight on with
one Quick Click and it is on at Full Power. Turn it off, then turn it on with two Quick Clicks
(about as fast as you would say “Click Click”) and it turns on at 25% power – the
PowerSave function. Turn it off, then turn it on with three Quick Clicks (about as fast as
you would say “Click Click Click”) and you have the Strobe function.
Selecting a function within any of the other function sets works the same way –with one,
two or three Quick Clicks, as the chart shows. For example, if you are in
Function Set #2
and you want to select the SOS Signal function, begin with the flashlight off, apply three
Quick Clicks, and your flashlight will signal SOS (the familiar three dots, three dashes and
three dots: . . . -- -- -- . . .)
How To Go From One Function Set To Another
Your MAGLITE® ML125™ LED flashlight’s “standard” setting is
Function Set #1.
If you
want to keep that setting you don’t have to do anything.
Function Set #1
will always be in
effect unless it is changed. If you want to choose a different function set, follow these
steps:
1. Unscrew the tail cap (you may not have to remove it all the way; you only need to back
it out of the barrel enough that the flashlight will not turn on).
