THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS.

FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY.

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. GENERAL
! Ensure the lantern is correctly charged before initial use.
! When fully charged, lantern must not be used for more than 20 minutes
of continuous use. To do so may damage the lamp.
F WARNING! The lens becomes very hot during operation.
% DO NOT cover or block the lens during use.
% DO NOT turn the lantern on when it is being re-charged.
% DO NOT shine directly into your, other person’s or animal’s eyes.
% DO NOT stand the lantern near any surface or item that may be adversely
effected by the heat emitted by the lens.
% DO NOT allow children to use the lantern.
% DO NOT handle or move the lantern whilst it is being charged.
% DO NOT use the lantern if you suspect that the battery or the lantern
casing is damaged.

1.2. BATTERY SAFETY
DANGER! - BE AWARE, LEAD-ACID BATTERIES MAY BE DANGEROUS IF
NOT HANDLED WITH CARE AND ACCORDING TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
! Before exposing the battery for replacement, remove personal metallic
items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid
battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring
to metal, which would cause severe burns.

! Ensure the charger is switched off and disconnected from the lantern
before attempting to open the lamp unit.
! If the battery terminals are corroded or dirty, clean them before
replacing battery.
% DO NOT dis-assemble the battery for any reason.
F WARNING! DO NOT allow metal tools to touch both battery terminals
simultaneously. Arcing or short circuit will result.
% DO NOT allow battery wires to touch each other or to make contact
with any other metallic part.
% DO NOT cross-connect wires to the battery as this will damage the unit.
Ensure positive (+) (RED) is to positive and negative (-) BLACK is to negative.
% DO NOT leave battery in a discharged state, recharge battery immediately.
If the lantern is not in use, recharge the battery every three months.
Dispose of the old battery in accordance with local authority acid battery
regulations. DO NOT dispose of with regular refuse.
