light according to its use. The battery can be charged any time, but
we recommend fully charging the battery every time you charge it.

specifications. To ensure the quality of your lighting system,
only use Cygolite parts. Use of non-Cygolite parts will void the
warranty and may cause damage to the light.

(or optional wall charger) to properly charge the Metro. Non-
Cygolite USB chargers can charge the Metro but make sure the
charger plug matches the USB port of the light and the power
button indicates the light is taking a charge. If the power button
does not illuminate when charging, charge the light with the
supplied USB cable.
Q: Can I use this light for activities other than cycling?
· No, this light is specifically intended for bicycle use only.
Q: What happens if water gets into the side illumination ports?

the internals are water sealed.

service to arrange the battery relacement.

the headlight is clean after every ride.
Wipe the headlight with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the battery or
headlight in water. Remove all dirt around or on the plugs or jacks on the
headlight.
