Direct Access to Lower/Turbo
With the light turned off, press and hold the on/off switch for more than
one second to enter lower output of 5 lumens;
With the light turned off, press and hold the mode switch for more than
one sencond to enter turbo output of 3600 lumens.
Special Modes (Strobe/Location Beacon/SOS)
With the light turned on, press and hold the mode switch for more than
one second to enter strobe mode. To cycle through all three modes of
Location Beacon / SOS / Strobe, press and hold the mode switch for
more than one second again. To exit special modes, simply press the
on/off switch .
Direct access to strobe:
With the light turned off, press the mode switch twice in quick
succession to enter strobe mode instantly. To exit, press any switch and
the light will turn off.
Lockout/Unlock
With the light turned either on or off, press and hold the on/off and
mode switches simultaneously for more than one second to enter
lockout mode. Once in lockout mode, neither switch will be functional. To
exit lockout mode, press and hold both switches simultaneously for more
than one second (repeat the step for entering lockout mode). The
TM16GT will operate in lockout mode for over 1 year.
Note:
Lockout mode prevents accidental activation of the flashlight and
reduces battery consumption.
Power Tips
1. When the light is off, press the mode switch to activate the blue
power indicator. The power indicator light will blink 3 times when power
level is above 50%; twice when power level is below 50% or once
when batteries are close to depletion (below 10%).
2. Upon battery installation, the blue power indicator will blink to indicate
battery voltage (accurate to 0.1V). For example, when battery voltage
is at 4.2V, the blue power indicator will blink 4 times, followed by a one
second pause and another 2 blinks. Different voltages represent the
corresponding remaining battery power levels:

Output & Runtime
NOTICE:
The above data has been measured in accordance with the international
flashlight testing standards ANSI/NEMA FL1 using 4 x 18650 (3.7V
3400mAh) batteries under laboratory conditions. The data may vary
slightly during real-world use due to battery type, individual usage habits
and environmental factors.
Operating Instructions
Battery Installation
1. Insert batteries with the positive (+) and negative (-) ends
corresponding to the diagram on the inside of the battery compartment.
2. Tighten the tailcap by aligning the two gold pins on the inside of the

NOTE:
Upon battery installation, the power indicator light will blink to
indicate the battery voltage. Please refer to the “Power Tips” section of
this manual for details.
WARNING:
1. Do not mix batteries of different types/brands.
2. When the TM16GT is stored in a backpack or left unused for extended
periods, Nitecore recommends that batteries are removed to cut off the
power entirely, thus preventing battery drain or accidental activation of
the flashlight.
On/Off Operation
To turn on: press the on/off switch to turn the light on.
To turn off: press the on/off switch again to turn the light off.
Standby Mode
With the light turned on, press and hold the on/off switch for more than
one second to turn off the light and activate location indication. The blue
power indicator built in the side switches will blink once every three
seconds to indicate the location of the TM16GT. In this mode, the
TM16GT will operate for approximately 6 months. With the power
indicator off in standby mode, the TM16GT can run for over 6 months.
Brightness Levels
With the light turned on, press the mode switch to cycle through
brightness levels of lower, low, medium, high and turbo. The TM16GT
memorizes the brightness level last used when turned off, and enters the
memorized brightness level directly upon next activation.
ATR Technology
Advanced temperature regulation (ATR) technology allows the TM16GT to
dynamically adjust output performance according to its body temperature.
This prevents damage from overheating and prolongs its working life.
Changing Batteries
Batteries should be replaced or recharged when output appears to be dim
or the flashlight becomes unresponsive.
Maintenance
Every 6 months, threads should be wiped with a clean cloth followed by a
thin coating of silicon-based lubricant.
