TROUBLESHOOTING

• No Charge Indicator Light

If the Charge Indicator LED does not light when charging do the following:
A) Check for bad connection to the AC Recharge Port
B) Check for bad connection to AC adapter
C) Confirm there is a functioning AC or DC current

Operating Issues

1. When the Spotlight is operating, the 120 volt AC method will not work. The

Auxiliary Light will turn on when pressed while charging. Be sure all adapters
are disconnected before Spotlight usage.

2. If the unit does not operate, the battery may be completely discharged. Charge

the unit using the AC adapter following the directions in the manual.

3. If you suspect a bulb is blown, check the bulb filament. If filament is coiled and

unbroken, the bulb is not blown. If filament is blown, replace bulb.

4. If you suspect the main fuse is blown, check it and, if necessary, replace with a

new 20 amp spade fuse.
