The Battery
Your Battery’s First Charge Is Important!
To assure the freshness of your battery and to avoid any operational
problems in shipping, it has been packaged in an UNCHARGED state.
For optimum operation of your flashlight, it should be charged a full
24 hours … before using for the first time.
Battery Installation
If the battery was shipped outside of the flashlight:
After you have removed
the flashlight from the Charging Cradle unscrew the tail cap (Fig. 12) and insert
battery pack (Fig. 13) into the barrel. The positive (+) end—this is the end with a
button—goes into the barrel first. Now screw on the tail cap and make sure it’s tight.
NOTE: Large end of the battery spring must be snapped into the tailcap.
First Charge Procedure
1.
Connect charging cradle to the AC converter or DC accessory cord.
2.
Plug into wall receptacle (AC) or DC power source cord.
3.
Make sure charging cradle indicator LED is GREEN.
4.

WARNING:
Do not “short” or “ground out” battery pack to “deeply

battery pack.
