Section 4
The Battery
Your Battery’s First Charge Is Important!
To assure the freshness of your battery and to avoid any operational
problems in shipping, it has been packaged in an UNCHARGED state.
For optimum operation of your flashlight, it should be charged a full
24 hours … before using for the first time.
Battery Installation
If the battery was shipped outside of the flashlight:
After you have removed
the flashlight from the Charging Cradle unscrew the tail cap (Fig. 12) and insert
battery pack (Fig. 13) 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.
First Charge Procedure
1.
Make sure tail cap is tight
2.
Place the flashlight into the Charging Cradle.
3.
Connect the Charging Cradle power cord into the AC converter or DC
cord, and
4.
Plug into power source.
5.
Make sure LED light is on.
WARNING:
Do not “short” or “ground out” battery pack to “deeply
discharge”. Doing so is hazardous and will damage the battery pack.
