WARNING – WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE
FOLLOWING:
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when the spotlight is used near children.
• Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• Do not put the spotlight in water or other liquid. Do not place or store this light where it can fall or be pulled into water or
become wet.
• Charge indoors only. Do not expose charger to water or any other liquid.
• Do not clean this appliance with a water spray or the like.
• Use only the chargers supplied by the manufacturer to charge and recharge.
• When an extension cord is used:
– The marked rating of the detachable power supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of this appliance.
– The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over,
snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by children).
– The extension cord should be kept dry and off the ground.
WARNING: FIRE HAZARD:

• Do not immerse spotlight in water.
• Do not expose this unit to extremely high temperatures.
• Do not drop or throw spotlight. It contains glass and a lithium-ion battery.
• Use only with either the AC or DC charging adapter and USB charging cable that are provided with unit. Plug in the charging
cable at the light first, then plug into the charging source.
• After charging/recharging, disconnect charging adapter or extension cord and wait 5 minutes before use.
• Do not crush, cut, pull or expose charging adapter cords to extreme heat.
• Position charging adapter cords so they do not become entangled or become a safety hazard. Keep charging adapter cords
away from sharp edges.
• Use in a dry location only.
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to disassemble any other parts of the unit.
• To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting.
• Do not attempt to charge the unit if the charger or cord is damaged – return the charger to manufacturer for repair or
replacement.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURST HAZARD, OR INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY:
Lithium-ion batteries are small, compact and ideal for providing long-lasting power to this unit. However, they must be used
and charged properly. Improper use can result in serious injury, fire, or death.
• Lithium-ion batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition. Do not use the product in the presence of an open flame.
• Do not place this lithium-ion battery powered unit in fire or apply heat to it.
• Do not subject this lithium-ion battery powered unit to strong impacts or shocks. The battery in this unit contains safety and
protection devices which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, rupture or ignite.
• Do not expose this lithium-ion battery powered unit to water or salt water, or allow the battery to get wet.
• A void storing this lithium-ion battery powered unit in the basement, bathroom or other areas of the house that are or may
become wet or humid or where moisture may concentrate.
• Do not leave this lithium-ion battery powered unit in direct sunlight, or use or store the unit inside cars in hot weather. Doing
so may cause the battery to generate heat, rupture, or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of
performance and a shortened life expectancy.
• Never charge this unit near heat or flammable objects.
• NEVER THROW WATER ON A BURNING LI-ION BATTERY! If a lithium-ion battery does catch on fire, it will burn even more
violently if it comes in contact with water or even moisture in the air. A fire extinguisher must be used.
Battery Charging and Capacity
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it for the first time.
When stored at room temperature with a full charge, Li-ion batteries will will begin to discharge from the time they are
manufactured, even when unused. Deep discharges also decrease their capacity. Battery life can be extended by the following:
• Charge battery to full capacity before storage.
• Optimal storage temperature for this unit is between 5°C and 20°C (41°F and 68°F).
• Never discharge the battery fully.
• Charge after each use.
• Always charge at least once every 3-6 months if not in frequent use to prevent overdischarge.
Transportation of Lithium-Ion Batteries
• Always check all applicable local, national, and international regulations before transporting a unit containing a Lithium-Ion
battery.
• Transporting an end-of-life, damaged, or recalled battery may, in certain cases, be specifically limited or prohibited.
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO THE 12V DC/USB CHARGING ADAPTER
CAUTION: TO AVOID THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• NEVER CONNECT THE UNIT TO A POSITIVE GROUNDED VEHICLE.
• The 12 Volt DC charging adapter must only be connected to batteries with a nominal output voltage of 12 volts. The unit will
not operate from a 6 volt battery and will sustain permanent damage if connected to a 24 volt battery.
• Always connect the 12 volt DC/USB charging adapter to the 12 volt DC power source before plugging any devices into it
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO THE USB PORTS
• IMPORTANT: Some household USB-powered electronics will not operate with the USB ports provided with this device. Check
the manual of the corresponding electronic device to confirm that it can be used with this type of USB port.
• The USB ports do not support data communication. They only provide power to an external USB powered device (5V DC/2.1A
using the USB port on DC /USB charging adapter or optional AC/USB charging adapter). Make sure the rating of equipment
plugged into the USB port does not exceed the amperage stated.
• Always connect the appropriate charging adapter to either the 120 volt AC or 12 volt DC power source before plugging any
devices into it.
