Remove battery pack from spotlight before replacing
bulb or performing any routine maintenance or cleaning.
Replace bulb with same type rated H3 6V55W.
Do not disassemble the spotlight.
Do not place spotlight or battery pack near fire or
heat. They may explode. Also, do not dispose of a worn
out battery pack by incinerating. Do not incinerate the
battery, even if it is severely damaged or completely worn
out. The battery may explode in fire.
Do not operate spotlight or charger near flammable
liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres.
Internal sparks may ignite fumes.
Do not store your spotlight in a damp or wet location.
Do not store in locations where the temperature is less
than 50°F or more than 100°F. Do not store in outside
sheds or in vehicles.
Do not permit children to use spotlight unsupervised.
It is not a toy. The temperature of the bulb will become
hot after being on for only a short period of time. This hot
temperature can cause burn injury if touched and can
create sufficient heat to melt some fabrics.
If wrapped or in contact with fabrics, the spotlight lens
can produce sufficient heat to melt some fabrics. To
avoid serious personal injury, never allow the spotlight
lens to come in contact with anything.
Keep light dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake
fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong
solvent to clean the spotlight.
Don’t expose spotlight to rain. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock or malfunction.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better
control of the spotlight in unexpected situations. Do not
use on a ladder or unstable support.
Do not leave the spotlight unattended while in the ON
position.
SPOTLIGHT USE AND CARE
This product is of household type.
Store spotlight out of the reach of children and other
untrained persons. Spotlights are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
Let spotlight cool for several minutes after use before
changing the bulb.
Do not use or permit use of spotlight in bed or sleeping
bags. This spotlight lens can melt fabric and a burn injury
could result.
SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY SPOTLIGHTS
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water,
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid gets
in your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10
minutes, then seek immediate medical attention.
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use
any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An
exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If
exposed, flush with water immediately.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately. Failure to heed this warning can
result in serious personal injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be re-
placed only by the manufacturer or by an authorized
service center to avoid risk.
Risk of burns-do not touch. Risk of fire-keep away
from combustible materials.
The lens gets very hot during use. To reduce the risk of
burns, do not touch hot lens. To reduce the risk of fire, keep
away from combustible materials while in operation.
Do not shine spotlight into the eyes.
