To charge the battery

extreme conditions including wet, cold, or extremely hot. 
1. Open the USB port cover.
2. Plug the Micro charger cable into the 
USB port on the light.
3. Plug the cable into a computer or 
wall adapter.
4. When the charge is complete, unplug 
the Micro charger cable and close the USB 
port cover.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the USB cover 
is latched before riding in rain or in wet 
conditions. If the USB cover is not closed, 
damage to the light may occur.

Caring for the battery
Store the light at room temperature in a dry place. Avoid moisture, or extreme 
hot or cold. 
Store the light in the charged condition. Avoid ‘deep discharge’. Battery life will 
decrease if the battery is stored in a fully discharged condition. 
Over time, the run time of the battery will diminish. Expect about 500 full 
charges, depending on care. After a full life, the battery will continue to charge 
but with a lower run time. When the run time is unsatisfactory, do not open the 
case of the light or incinerate; please recycle. 
Traveling with the battery 
Li-ion batteries cannot be shipped by air due to airline regulations. When 
traveling by air, place the light in your carry-on.
Recycling
Please recycle the battery. In the US, you can find out  
where to do this at www.call2recycle.org

documents means that used electrical and electronic
