Note: Flashlight will not light if batteries are inserted in the wrong direction.
Damage may occur with reversed battery polarity
.
CAUTION:
MRV-SIDEKICK flashlights are high-output lighting devices. Due to
possible eye injury, DO NOT look directly into the reflector when the light is
switched on. Do not shine the MRV-SIDEKICK into the eyes of others. S
afety is
your responsibility.
External surface temperature will rise during prolonged operation; this
is a normal operating phenomenon.
Battery Replacement

WARNING:
Lithium batteries can explode or cause burns if disassembled, shorted,
recharged, exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures. Do not place loose batteries in a
pocket, purse or other container containing metal objects or store with hazardous or
combustible materials. Store in cool, dry, ventilated area. Follow applicable laws and
regulations for disposal.
Never use mixed-battery types or brands. Do not mix charged and uncharged
batteries. Input voltage limited to 10V, never use 4 x 16340 or 4x123A which
may cause circuit damage (with optional M-65 attached). Only use 2 x 18650 or 2
x 17670 with M65. Power ON MRV-SIDEKICK at High-out position unattended
over 30 minutes may cause overheating and damage.
Maintenance
Clean and lubricate threads with a clean cloth and apply thin coat of silicon-based lubricant
to rubber O-rings. Note: Do not use petroleum-based lubrication on O-rings. After
prolonged exposure to moisture, the bezel and batteries should be removed, inspected,
and dried if necessary
.
WARNING:
Lumapower reflectors are made with a highly precise process. Do not
touch or clean the reflecting surface using any cloth which may cause damage to the
surface material affecting the illuminating performance.
