Product care and storage

Lamp:
After use in salty air, clean the lamp and the cables externally with warm water and some
mild detergent.
Plug contacts:
Normally the plug contacts are maintenance free. However, if you use your Piko light in salty
environments, it is advisable to apply a thin layer of
every so often to prevent oxidation. Do NOT use terminal grease or contact spray.
Transport:
Important! Always disconnect the battery from the light!
Otherwise the small amount of power used by the electronics will discharge the battery, and
the lamp may be switched on accidentally. The consequent uncontrolled heat buildup could
cause a fire or melt adjacent plastic material.
Storage:
If you intend not to use the lamp for a longer period of time, fully charge the battery and
leave it connected to the charger. For storing, we recommend a cool and dry place.
Opening the Screw Top:
Important! Because of the delicate sealings, we do not recommend to open the lamp.
A leakage in consequence of opening the light is excluded from warranty!
