*16340 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Using low-quality batteries or mishandling batteries (such as short-circuiting or overheating) could lead to combustion and jeopardize the safety of users and property. Any adverse effects resulting from the use of low-quality batteries are not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability.
Battery Replacement
Unscrew the light head and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the light head back on.
Intelligent Overheat Protection
The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 55°C/131°F or above, the light will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 55°C/131°F, the light will gradually recall the preset output level.
Low-voltage Warning
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the brightness level decreases correspondingly. When the voltage level drops below 3 V, the light blinks 3 times every 2 minutes to remind users to recharge or replace the battery in a timely manner.
*This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L16-800UP rechargeable battery.
Usage and Maintenance
Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
Fenix recommends using an excellent quality battery.
If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage.
Clean the lens regularly to prevent powder residue from affecting the light's performance.
Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
Since equipment maintenance requires the use of organic solvents, organic solvents contaminating key internal components of the light may cause malfunctions, and the light will not receive normal warranty service.
Periodic cleaning of the light and battery contacts improves the light's performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons:
A: Poor battery level.
Solution: Recharge or replace the battery.
B: The contact or contact point of the battery or light is dirty.
Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
If the above methods don't work, please contact the distributor.
Warning
Do NOT place this light in the reach of children!
Do NOT shine the light directly into the eyes of anyone!
Do NOT place light head near flammable objects, high temperatures can cause objects to overheat and become flammable/ignite!
Do NOT use the light in inappropriate ways such as holding the unit in your mouth, doing so could cause serious personal injury or death if the light or internal battery fails!
This light will accumulate a significant amount of heat while operating, resulting in a high temperature of the light shell. Pay close attention to avoid burns.
Unscrew the light head or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
The LED of this light is not replaceable; so the light will need to be replaced when the LED reaches the end of its lifespan.
