Torch Light E3 1, Installing the Batteries Hold the aluminium casing firmly in one hand and turn the end cap in a counter-clockwise direction until fully unscrewed. Pull the end cap away from the casing and this will reveal the battery cartridge. Place each battery into the compartment ensuring that the plus(+) pole end points towards the head of the flashlight not towards the end cap. With all batteries installed replace the cartridge into the casing and turn the end cap in a clockwise direction until fully tightened. The flashlight is now ready to be used.IMPORTANT: Please ensure that the batteries are installed correctly otherwise battery damage may occur, possibly resulting in an explosion. Never try to recharge batteries or use new and used batteries together. Always change all the batteries at the same time and only use high quality ones of the same type and brand. If you do not intend to use the flashlight for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent them leaking and damaging the flashlight. NOTE: When the batteries have been depleted after continuous use of the flashlight, it is possible to use it once again if left for 8 hours to recover. This will enable further use until the batteries have been completely depleted. Useful in emergency situations or in simply getting the most from your batteries.2, Multi-Mode Switch Operation This flashlight is equipped with four different modes of operation: High Beam (100%): For indoor, outdoor or long distance illumination. Low Beam (10%): For close illumination, such as reading, repairing or identification. Strobe Light (12Hz): For signalling in a rescue situation, self-defence from attack or fun party lighting. SOS Signal: For use in rescue situations, this mode will continually flash the international Morse code signal for SOS. 3, You can access the different modes in one of two ways: Touch: Lightly touch the end cap switch with your thumb to see the first mode. Releasing the switch and then touching it again within 1 second will show the next mode. Keep repeating this to cycle though all of the flashlight modes and when all have been shown, it will loop back to the beginning. Leaving the switch for more than 1 second after releasing your thumb will result in the cycle being reset to the beginning. If you apply more pressure and complete the press to engage the button then the current mode will remain selected. Press: Exactly the same procedure as above but instead of performing a light touch on the end cap switch to cycle through the different modes you apply more pressure and engage the button each time. This will keep each mode selected unless the procedure is repeated within 1 second in which case the next mode is selected. 4, Sliding Optical Focus This flashlight is equipped with a sliding optical focus system that allows you to choose between a long beam that is ideal for seeing far into the distance or a wide beam which illuminates more of the surrounding area. To adjust this you’ll need to hold the flashlight normally with the aluminium casing and then using your thumb and forefinger push the head collar of the flashlight to produce a long beam or pull it back to produce a wide beam. 5, Lantern / Candle Function The flashlight can be used as a candle to illuminate a room during a power failure. Select the high beam and then carefully balance the flashlight on its end on a flat secure surface .Pointing the flashlight at the ceiling the light will be reflected around the room. It can also be used as a lantern when camping or outdoors by hanging it in your tent or from a tree. 6, Tactical Crenulated Bezel Although not designed to replace a professional life saving hammer, in an emergency the flashlight can be used to break glass. For best results use strong physical force and angle the flashlight correctly (. The crenulated bezel also allows the flashlight to be used for self defence purposes. 7, Warning --The light from this flashlight is very powerful and should not be shone directly into anyone’s eyes, as this may cause short term blindness. If the beam does shine in your eyes, close them and look away immediately. --In the case of commercial use, the user of the flashlight should only use this product in accordance with any local laws and regulations.
