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: FIRE HAZARD: Keep spotlight lamp away from materials that may burn.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAmAGE:
• All halogen lights give off heat:
– Do not touch lens while operating.
– 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 can crack or break.
• Do not expose this unit to extremely high temperatures.
• Do not drop or throw spotlight.
• Use only with DC power cord provided with unit. Plug in the power cord at the spotlight first, then plug into the power source.
• Do not crush, cut, pull or expose the power cord to extreme heat.
• Position the power cord so it does not become entangled or become a safety hazard. Keep the power cord away from sharp edges.
• Do not open body casing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Do not operate the spotlight without the lens in place.
• To reduce risk of damage to the plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than cord when disconnecting.
• Do not attempt to use the 12 volt DC power cord if it is damaged – return it to the manufacturer for repair or replacement.
aLKaLiNe Battery saFety iNstruCtiONs
WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or fire. To reduce this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –), marked on the battery and the equipment.
• Do not short battery terminals.
• Do not charge batteries.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type.
• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months.
"Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such
as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected
from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from
materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit. "
iNstruCtiONs PertaiNiNg tO WaterPrOOF sPOtLigHts
The front and rear rubber "O" rings act to preserve the waterproof qualities of the spotlight. The "O" rings contact the rubber bezel
and the end cap, respectively, to prevent water from entering the gap. Undamaged rubber "O" rings, rubber bezel and lens; and
proper sealing of the end cap before use are very important.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAmAGE:
• Attempting to remove either of the rubber "O" rings; use of the unit with a damaged "O" ring, rubber bezel or lens; improper
sealing of the waterproof end cap; and/or submerging this unit in depths greater than 3 feet may cause the unit to no longer be
waterproof. Do not submerge the unit if these conditions exist or the unit could sustain permanent damage.
• Submerging this unit in depths greater than 3 feet and/or operating it in water temperature other than between 41ºF and 104ºF
(5ºC and 40ºC) could result in leakage, warping or malfunction, causing permanent damage to the spotlight.
