SPOTLIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
To replace the H3 type 12 volt bulb, you will need a small Phillips type screwdriver
and a replacement bulb. Bulb life can be shortened by installing a bulb with dirt or
fingerprints on it. The bulb can be wiped clean with a cloth moistened with alcohol.
During bulb installation, avoid touching the glass part of the bulb. (See Figures 2A
and 2B for details.)
1. Disconnect the unit from any charging adapter.
2. Push back the rubber bezel toward the back of the spotlight to reveal two small
Phillips screws in the retaining ring.
3. Using the screwdriver, remove (counterclockwise) the two screws. Set them
aside.
4. Lift off the retaining ring, glass lens and rubber "O" ring and set them aside.
5. Carefully remove the reflector and bulb assembly (see Figures 2A and 2B).
6. Disconnect the bulb wire from the red power wire and set aside the burned out
bulb.
7. Unsnap the hairpin retaining wires from the reflector's flange.
8. Using the screwdriver, loosen the retaining screw to remove the bulb from the
reflector (no need to completely remove this screw).
9. Lift out the bulb and the attached wire.
10. Insert the replacement bulb into the reflector's flange.
11. Put back and secure the hairpin retaining wires.
12. Connect the bulb power wire to the red power wire.
13. Tighten the retaining screw on the flange.
14. Place the reflector in position in the body of the spotlight.
15. Replace the rubber "O" ring in the groove around the perimeter of the reflector.
16. Replace glass and retaining ring so that the screw holes are aligned.
17. Secure retaining ring with two screws.
