MAIN FUSE

The fuse configuration may vary based on the unit purchased.
Some Spotlights are delivered with the main fuse taped to the bottom
of the unit. It must be inserted as indicated in the
compartment shown in Figure 1 prior to operation.
Other units are shipped with the fuse installed inside the Battery
Compartment (as shown in Figure 2). Units with this configuration
feature a convenient storage shelf for a spare fuse.
If you suspect this main fuse is blown, check it and, if necessary,
replace it with a new 20 amp spade fuse.

CHARGING THE BATTERY
The unit is delivered in a partially charged state. It must be fully charged prior to first
use by either the 120 volt AC method (preferred) or the 12 volt DC method.
After initial charging, the unit can be simultaneously recharged and operated (using
the 12 Volt DC method only). Make sure the 12 volt DC power source can supply
minimum 15 amperes of current if the Spotlight is to be operated while the batteries
are being charged.
After charging, disconnect the Adapter from the external power source, then
disconnect the Adapter from the AC Recharge Port or 12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet.

120 Volt AC Charging/Recharging

Plug the supplied 120 Volt AC Adapter's plug into a
standard North American outlet. Connect the
adapter's barrel connector to the AC Recharge Port
located on the top/rear of the grip handle. The LED
will light to indicate that the unit is charging. Time
required to initially charge the unit using this method
is approximately 30 to 35 hours. The LED Charging
Indicator will blink when the unit is fully charged. The
Auxiliary Light and radio can be operated during
120 Volt AC charging. The Spotlight cannot be
used while recharging using this method.

12 Volt DC Charging/Recharging

The DC recharging method will NOT recharge the
unit as effectively as the 120 volt AC method. The 12
volt DC recharging procedure is recommended
only when it is necessary, since frequent use of the
12 volt DC recharging procedure may shorten the
battery system's life.
1. Insert the gold-tipped end plug of the 12 Volt DC
Power/Charging Adapter plug into the vehicle's
12 volt DC accessory outlet.
2. Insert the silver-tipped end plug into the 12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet on the back
of the handle of the unit.
3. Charging time using this method is approximately 5 to 6 hours.
4. When charging is complete, remove the power cord and return it to the storage
compartment.
Note:
When using a vehicle's 12 volt DC accessory outlet as a charging/power
source, be aware that some vehicles require the ignition be turned on to power
the accessory outlet.
