TO CHANGE FLUORESCENT BULB
NOTE:
This lantern uses an 11-watt Spiral
Fluorescent Bulb (See Parts List for
replacement #).
1.
With lantern in normal upright position,
remove small screw along back side just
below clear globe. See Figure 2.
2.
Then remove top cover and globe by
unscrewing counterclockwise as shown in
Figure 2.
3.
Pull the bulb-holder lever outward away
from the fluorescent tube. See Figure 3.
Then pull bulb from socket.
4.
Handle new bulb by socket base only,
avoiding contact with glass. Install new

5.
Assemble top cover and globe to lantern by rotating clockwise until hand tight. Reinstall small
screw on back side of lantern. Check that globe is securely fastened to lantern before
transporting.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
1.
Operating time for this lantern depends on whether it is run continuously or intermittently.
Intermittent operation extends the run time of the battery.
2.
In cold temperatures, the fluorescent bulb is more difficult to light and may be dim until it
warms up. Below 20˚F (-7˚C), the bulb may not light.
3.
When the fluorescent tube does not light to full brilliance, battery should be recharged. If this is
not done and lantern is used, the tube may become blackened.
4.
To clean the outside of the lantern and globe, use only a damp cloth and mild dishwashing
liquid. Avoid excessive water and strong cleaner which can damage lantern.
5.
The battery used in this unit is a sealed, lead-acid batter
y which offers slower drain and longer
operating time than other type batteries available. The battery will never leak acid or corrosive
materials, and when used properly can give reliable, long-lasting power for many years.

TO CHARGE BATTER
Y
When the battery is fully discharged, it will take
16 to 18 hours to fully recharge it. To obtain
maximum performance, charge for 18 hours
for the first three cycles. Always charge the
battery immediately after use whenever
possible. Charge indoors using household
source. On a full charge, the continuous run
time is up to 9 hours on LOW and 6 hours on
HIGH. Total run time will increase if the unit is
turned on and off intermittently.
Do not leave the lantern turned on after the battery has stopped, as overdischarging the batter
y can
cause problems in recharging the battery to a full charge. If this does occur
, immediately switch the
lantern off and recharge for 40 hours. After an extended period of storage (more than 6 months),
recharge for the full 16 hours or more.
The light can be recharged after first charging from either a 120-volt AC wall outlet in your home or
garage using the 120-volt AC adaptor, or from a 12-volt DC receptacle in a car
, boat, or RV , using the
12-volt DC cigarette plug.
The 12-volt DC cigarette plug is stored inside the base of the unit. Turn base counter
clockwise to
open the compartment.
CAUTION:
The 12-volt DC cigarette plug was designed to avoid internal short circuits, however
, it may
be possible to blow the fuse in some
USA vehicles when only the small plug from the lantern is
disconnected and the large cigaretteplug remains
connected to the 12 VDC
cigarette lighter socket.
In this situation, if the small plug contacts the metal of the vehicle, the fuse may blow! Therefore,
always remove the large cigarette plug from the cigarette lighter socket first! This caution applies
to any vehicle, RV , boat, etc., in which the 12-volt DC cigarette plug is used.
NOTE:
On some automobiles, the cigarette lighter receptacle is turned on and off by the ignition switch.
To Charge:
Connect the small end of the proper adaptor cord to the hole in the lantern collar.
Connect the other end of the adaptor to the appropriate electrical outlet. See Figure 1.
A small red light located on the body, next to the adaptor cord hole, will glow when the
charger is connected correctly. If the red light is not on, the lantern is not being recharged.
