SAFETY
A.Before using your Vulcan and charger read all instructions in this manual and
all cautionary markings on the unit.
B.
WARNING
:
Never leave your Vulcan with its lamp face against any surface,
including skin, while in operation. The resultant heat build-up can cause a
fire or burns.
C.
IMPORTANT
:
Careful observation of the LED's serves as an important warning
of possible charge circuit malfunction, which may cause battery overcharg-
ing, the green LED should turn "on" steadily and the red LED should turn off
completely within twelve (12) hours of charging time. If the red LED stays on
past this time remove the light from service and return it immediately to the
Streamlight factory at 30 Eagleville Road, Eagleville, PA 19403 for free
evaluation and repair. In extremely rare circumstances an overcharged bat-
tery may release a flammable hydrogen gas mixture. In the unlikely event
that this mixture should ignite, bodily harm could result.
D.The Vulcan should not be switched on and off during charging unless only the
green LED is lighted. Recycle the battery responsibly when no longer service-
able. DO NOT INCINERATE THE BATTERY, EVEN IF IT IS SEVERELY DAM-
AGED OR COMPLETELY WORN OUT. The battery could explode in a fire.
Handle the battery carefully and never allow it to short circuit. A shorted bat-
tery can easily start a fire.
E. The Vulcan is approved for use in hazardous locations. You are responsible
for the proper application of this product in a properly defined location.
DO NOT charge in potentially hazardous areas.
