INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE: For prolonged life and efficiency, it is necessary periodically
to inspect and perform preventative maintenance on your flashlight as follows: 1. Inspection - Any battery
may leak caustic solutions or gases which can corrode the inside of your flashlight. You should remove the
batteries at least once a month and visually inspect the inside of the flashlight for signs of corrosion. If
corrosion is seen, follow the instructions in the HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE A WARRANTY CLAIM
section. 2. Separate Storage of Batteries - If your flashlight is used infrequently, e.g., once a month or
less, it is recommended to remove the batteries and store them separately. This helps guard against
corrosion and may also prolong battery life. 3. Maintenance - Place a small amount of petroleum jelly on
all threads and rubber O-rings every six months.
TROUBLESHOOTING: 1. Flashlight failure - Check the lamp and the batteries. If the lamp has burned
out, be sure its replacement was designed specifically for the battery voltage output. 2. Flashlight does
not turn on or stay on - Check the tail cap. The metal surfaces contacting the barrel, tail cap and spring
assembly should be shiny metal without obstruction between them. Any corrosion formed by a foreign
substance should be carefully removed. 3. If all of the above steps have been followed and the flashlight
still does not perform properly, follow the steps in the HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE A WARRANTY CLAIM
section, or see the Customer Service Section at www.maglite.com or contact our Warranty/Repair facility:

WARNINGS: Any battery may leak harmful chemicals which may damage skin, clothing, or the inside of
the flashlight. TO AVOID RISK OF INJURY, DO NOT LET ANY MATERIAL LEAKED FROM A BATTERY
COME IN CONTACT WITH EYES OR SKIN. Any battery may rupture or explode if put in a fire or otherwise
exposed to excessive heat. TO AVOID RISK OF INJURY, DO NOT EXPOSE BATTERIES TO EXCESSIVE
HEAT. To reduce the risk of personal injury or harm to your flashlight, take the following precautions: • Use
only alkaline batteries from a reputable manufacturer. • Do not use different brands of batteries in the
same flashlight. • When replacing batteries, always replace the whole set. • Do not use rechargeable or
reuseable alkaline batteries. • Do not try to recharge batteries that are not specifically designed to be
recharged. • Always install batteries with the "+" end facing the head end of the flashlight and the "-" end
facing the tailcap end of the flashlight. • Do not allow children to install batteries unsupervised.
• Follow battery manufacturer's instructions as to proper handling, storage and disposal of batteries. • Use
of a replacement lamp of improper dimensions or specifications may cause shorting, overheating or other
hazard. Use only the recommended Mag-Lite® replacement lamp or its technical equivalent. • Carefully
follow the steps listed under INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE. • Do not allow children to install or
tamper with the lamp. Protect the lamp from bending or twisting. If the lamp is installed improperly or if
the leads from the lamp are twisted so as to contact one another, this could short circuit the flashlight and
cause heat generation. • Not recommended for use by children under seven years of age.
