WARNINGS:
• The ML150LR™/ML150LRS™ flashlight is a high-intensity lighting device
that is safe during normal operating use in which it is used to project light
at a distance and the lens is not obstructed or blocked. It is not intended
for use in hazardous environments, such as explosive environments, where
only devices with appropriate hazardous certifications (such as “intrinsically
safe” and/or “explosion-proof”) should be used. If the device is left on when
the lens is obstructed or blocked, such misuse may create a potentially
dangerous heat build-up, which could possibly result in fire, depending
upon the environment in which the device is being misused.
• This flashlight is a high-intensity lighting device capable of causing eye
damage to the user or others. Avoid shining the flashlight directly into
anyone’s eyes.
• As is the case with any battery, never allow it to short circuit and do not
expose the battery of this device to fire or excessive heat, as this could
cause the battery to leak, rupture or explode.
• The charging cradle is not waterproof and should only be used in dry
indoor locations. Exposing the device’s charging system to liquids could
cause shorting and possible fire and/or electric shock.
• Never try to disassemble, repair or alter the AC adapter, plug or charging
cradle. Shorting and possible fire and/or electric shock could result.
Contact a Mag Authorized Warranty Service Center for repairs.
O
CAUTION:
• The flashlight is not designed to operate with the face cap off and the LED
exposed. If contacted directly, the exposed LED could become hot enough
to burn skin, or to melt or scorch some heat-sensitive materials, e.g.,
plastics, rubber, cloth fabrics, etc.
• Any battery may leak harmful chemicals which may damage eyes,
skin, clothing, or the inside of the flashlight. To avoid risk of injury, never
disassemble a battery pack, and do not let any material leaked from a
battery come in contact with eyes or skin. In the event of contact with eyes
or skin, wash the affected area immediately and obtain prompt medical
attention.

NOTICE:
To reduce the risk of harm to your flashlight:
• Locate power cord away from foot traffic and other causes of abrasion or
stress.
• Never pull on the power cord when unplugging the AC adapter. Grasp the
plug directly.
• Do not use non-rechargeable batteries in your Rechargeable Flashlight
System. Use only a MAG® rechargeable battery pack (ML150LR™ Model
No. 485-000-034), (ML150LRS™ Model No. 485-000-075).
