WARNING
The lights may be hot and could cause a burn or damage material it may contact. Do not activate (turn on) light in enclosed area. Avoid accidental wireless activation.
Caring for the battery
Store the light at room temperature in a dry place. Avoid moisture, or extreme hot or cold.
Store the light in the charged condition. Avoid ‘deep discharge’. Battery life will decrease if the battery is stored in a fully discharged condition.
Over time, the run time of the battery will diminish. Expect about 500 full charges, depending on care. After a full life, the battery will continue to charge but with a lower run time. When the run time is unsatisfactory, do not open the case of the light or incinerate; please recycle.
Traveling with the battery
Li-ion batteries cannot be shipped by air due to airline regulations. When traveling by air, place the light in your carry-on.
Recycling
Please recycle the battery. In the US, you can find out where to do this at www.call2recycle.org
