IMPORTANT
Although light body and battery are water-resistant (under normal weather conditions of rain, etc..) never intentionally submerge them under water.
The battery used in the WhiteLite™ HP Mega 10W is 3.7 volts. Never attempt to alter this lighting system. Never use this battery with any other lighting or electrical system.
Never attempt to disassemble the battery.
If battery pack is dropped, battery case may be cracked and a short circuit may occur. Replace battery pack immediately.
The battery has unique characteristics. The light output will remain high until the battery runs down then drops suddenly. Always pay attention to the charge remaining and take precautions by carrying a spare battery.
The battery charger is for indoor use only. After charging the battery, be sure to unplug it from the home power outlet.
If the light body or parts become dirty, gently clean with a soft towel using mild soap and water. Never use harsh chemicals to clean the lighting system as damage to housings will occur.
When connecting and disconnecting the plug and socket hold the connector ends only. Do not attempt to connect or disconnect the plug/socket interface by pushing or pulling on wires or serious damage to wires and connectors will occur.
After long periods of non-use, the battery will lose charge. Always charge the battery fully before each use and storage. Maintain the battery by charging it every three months and storing it in a cool, dry place to prevent from decreasing its lifespan. 3 to 5 charging cycles are needed to attain full capacity after a long period of non-use.
WARNING
Pacemaker users should never use this device.
The light body becomes extremely hot when used for long periods of time. Never touch the body or lens until it has thoroughly cooled, otherwise injury may occur.
Never look directly into the light when it's turned on. It may harm your vision.
Do not use this light improperly on public roads. The light output is equal to automobile halogen bulbs. Adjust the light accordingly so as not to blind oncoming traffic.
If the light unit, cord or battery pack is damaged, discontinue use immediately. A hazardous condition may result due to the high voltage system.
Never short-circuit the terminals of the battery pack or the plug of the components.
Safely and properly dispose of the old Li-ion batteries according to your local regulations.
Never place this lighting system within a child's reach.
Use only the supplied battery charger for this system.
Night riding is inherently more dangerous than daylight riding. For your safety and the safety of others, Topeak asks that you use extreme caution when using this or any other light source while riding at night.
Stay alert and ride safely while using your WhiteLite Mega 10W.
If the lighting system turns off automatically, DO NOT attempt to turn on the lighting system again, or damage and/or decreased battery life may occur.
