On the right side of the lantern is a low battery LED indicator. For 4 and 6 cell lanterns,
approximately 30 minutes of runtime remains when the indicator is activated. For 8 cell
lanterns, approximately 60 minutes of runtime remains when the indicator is activated.
If your lantern includes a carrying strap, attach the strap to the rings using the quick connect
clips provided on the strap.
MAINTENANCE
Keep the charger free of dirt and moisture. Your charger can be cleaned with a mild soap and
damp towel. Avoid harsh detergents, abrasives, and solvents that could damage the plastic.
If wet, disconnect power adapter and allow to dry for 2-3 days before attempting to use.
Periodically clean charger, contacts on charger and lantern with electrical contact de-oxidizer.
NOTE:
For long term storage, discharge battery 50%, unplug adapter and remove lantern from
charge base to prevent damage to battery.
To prevent accidental lighting, when packing for transportation or storage, it is recommended
that you disengage the bulb from the power source by turning the lens ring ¼ turn counter
clockwise.
BULB REPLACEMENT
To replace the bulb, simply unscrew the lens ring assembly from the lantern. Remove the
reflector. Try not to touch the reflector surface. If the bulb is hot, wait for it to cool, and
then pull the bulb straight out of the bulb spring.
Install a new bulb. Note: When replacing dual filament bulb, align posts on base of lamp
with appropriate slots in bulb spring mount in head. Both single and dual filament amps are
pre-focused and do not need to be adjusted.
Replace the reflector and screw the lens ring assembly back onto the lantern. Be sure to
screw the lens ring assembly on firmly, but do not over-tighten.
Check O-ring each time bulb is replaced. If necessary, lubricate O-ring and inside lip of lens
ring with silicone grease.
Replace worn, scratched or cracked O-rings.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
To replace battery pack, simply remove the six screws from the bottom of the lantern and
remove the cover.
Disconnect the battery from the plug and replace with new battery pack by joining male and
female plugs together. For all battery packs make sure to place pack to rear of lantern
housing such that is in contact with rear screw posts.
Replace cover and install screws and verify that cover is flush against lantern housing. Do
not over-tighten!
