WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE UV
RADIATION, OR INJURY TO PERSONS:
• Turn off/unplug and allow to cool before replacing the Halogen bulb.
• Halogen bulb gets HOT quickly!
• Do not touch the bulb at any time when operating.
• Only contact switch/plug when turning on.
• Do not touch hot lens or enclosure.
• Do not remain in light if skin feels warm.
• Use only with a 6 volt/55 watt or smaller halogen bulb.
• When changing bulb, use a soft cloth. Oil from skin may damage bulb.
• Do not operate the spotlight with a missing or damaged lens or enclosure.

WARNING – WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS
BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when the spotlight is used near children.
• Use only attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• Charge indoors only.
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO USE THE BUILT-IN 120 VOLT AC CHARGER AND THE 12 VOLT DC CHARGING
ADAPTER FOR CHARGING SIMULTANEOUSLY.
• Do not put spotlight in water or other liquid. Do not place or store appliance where it can fall or be
pulled into a tub or sink.
• Do not clean this appliance with a water spray or the like.
• Use only the charger supplied by the manufacturer to recharge.
• When an extension cord is used:
– The marked rating of the detachable power supply cord or extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of this appliance.
– The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can
be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by children).
– The extension cord should be kept dry and off the ground.
– Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
– When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

WARNING: FIRE HAZARD: Never contact combustible material to the lens and never tape or tie the
switch in the on position.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• All halogen lights give off heat:
– Do not touch lens while operating.
– Keep combustibles away from spotlight lens. Extreme heat can cause fires.
– Never place the light face-down on any surface when lit.
• Never look directly into the light or shine the light into another person's eyes.
• Keep sharp objects away from lens — it is glass and can break.
• Do not immerse spotlight in water.
• Do not expose this unit to extremely high temperatures.
• Do not drop or throw spotlight. It contains glass and a sealed lead acid battery.
• After charging/recharging, disconnect charging adapter or extension cord and wait 5 minutes before
use.
• Do not crush, cut, pull or expose charging adapter cords to extreme heat.
• Position charging adapter cords so they do not become entangled or become a safety hazard. Keep
charging adapter cords away from sharp edges.
• Use in a dry location only.
