2. Connect the DC charger to a 12 volt DC source that can supply at least 15 amps
of current.
3. Plug the DC charger’s polarized connecter into the DC recharge port.
4. Recharge for 10-12 hours maximum or until the green LED lights when the battery
status display pushbutton is pressed.
5. After recharge, disconnect the adapter from the external charging/power source,

accessory outlet.
WARNING:
NEVER SIMULTANEOUSLY CONNECT AC/DC AND DC/DC CHARGERS TO
SPOTLIGHT.
6. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
All batteries lose charge over time, especially when they are warm. AC recharge is
recommended every two months, when not in frequent use. Use the AC/DC recharge
adapter and charge for the recommended time. If the unit has dirt on it, gently clean
the outer surfaces of the spotlight unit with a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution
of water and detergent. Periodically inspect the condition of recharge adapters, con-
nectors, and wires. Replace any components that may have become worn or broken.
7. PARTS REPLACEMENT
Several parts are replaceable by users. The quartz halogen bulbs and two sealed lead
acid batteries are available through Vector Manufacturing. A substitute 12 volt, H3,
55 watt bulb may be used instead of a Vector bulb. These can also be purchased from
popular automotive parts suppliers nationwide. Vector Manufacturing’s technical
support department for replacement parts and any additional information that you
may need. They may be reached at (954) 584-4446 or toll free (866) 584-5504.
To replace either or both H3 type 12 volt bulbs, you will need a small Phillips type
screwdriver and a replacement bulb (or bulbs), Vector part VEC190. Bulb life can be
shortened by installing a bulb with dirt or fingerprints on it. The bulb can be wiped
clean with a cloth moistened with alcohol. During bulb installation, avoid touching the
glass part of the bulb. See Figures 4, and details 4A and 4B. Note which bulb is
burned out.
1. Disconnect the unit from any charging adapters
2. Pull the rubber bezel towards the front of the spotlight to reveal two small Phillips
screws in the wide reflector assembly retainer. The screws are on opposite sides of
the retainer.
3. Using the screwdriver, remove (counterclockwise) the two screws. Set them aside.
4. Lift off the retainer, glass lens, and rubber ring and set them aside.
5. Carefully remove the dual reflector and bulb assembly.
