Troubleshooting

As with any equipment, the Sector 5 should be rinsed with 
fresh water after any contact with salt water. Move the 
switch and switch lock back and forth a few times while 
rinsing with water to prevent salt build-up.

Flooding 

In the unlikely event your light leaks or is flooded, 
immediately remove the batteries. Flush all parts with fresh 
water and allow to dry. Check for possible cause of leakage 
and correct problem; return light for repair if necessary. Do 
not reuse batteries that have been wet. Batteries from a 
flooded light should be discarded.

Troubleshooting

If the Sector 5 fails to light:

• Check the batteries for proper installation.
• Replace batteries if proper installation is confirmed

Battery Installation 

Princeton Tec cares about the environment and recommends 
recycling batteries. For more information about battery 
recycling, please go to: www.batteryrecycling.com. 

 Observe proper battery polarity when installing the batteries. 
Improper installation of the batteries will damage the light 
and void the warranty.

WARNING 

!

• Never mix fresh and used batteries.
• Never mix different battery brands or

chemistry types

• Always remove drained batteries immediately.
• Remove batteries during long periods of storage.
NOTE: Some battery formulations can emit hydrogen gas.
This gas can create an explosion potential in sealed devices
if not vented or removed. The Sector 5 is equipped with a
platinum catalyst that will remove this gas. When replacing
the batteries, visually inspect the LED module for broken or
missing catalyst. If the catalyst appears to be damaged, (you
may notice gray particles in the battery compartment), or the
light has flooded, replace the catalyst before using.
