Warning: Do not mix batteries of different brands, sizes, capacities or types. Doing so may cause damage to the flashlight or to the batteries being used. *18650 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only using quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion. Cell damage or short circuiting caused by using this type of battery is considered user induced damage and is not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Unscrew the light body and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the light body back on.
CHARGING
- Turn off the light and open the anti-dust cover to reveal the charging port, then connect the USB Type-C end of the charging cable to the flashlight.
- The indicator will display red while charging, and will turn green when fully charged.
- Once charging is completed, be sure to unplug the charging cable and close the anti-dust cover.
- Only Eco output and Low output can be operated while charging. The flashlight cannot be operated without a battery inserted.
Note:
- The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L18-3400 rechargeable battery is approximately 3 hours from depletion to fully charged with a 5 V/2 A charging adapter.
- Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain optimum performance of the battery.
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION
Each time the light is turned on, the indicator will show the current battery
level and will last for 3 seconds. With the light switched off, single click
the side switch to check the battery status, the indicator will last for 3
seconds.
Green light on: saturated 100% – 85%
Green light flashes: sufficient 85% – 50%
Red light on: poor 50% – 25%
Red light flashes: critical 25%-1%
Note: This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.
INTELLIGENT OVERHEAT PROTECTION
The flashlight will accumulate a lot of heat when used at high output levels for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 60°C/140°F or above, the light will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C/140°F, the light will gradually recall the standard output level.
LOW-VOLTAGE WARNING
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Eco output is reached. When this happens in Eco output, the battery level indicator blinks red to remind you to replace or recharge the battery. To ensure normal use, the flashlight will not turn off automatically and will work till the battery level runs out. Note: This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.
USAGE AND MAINTENANCE
- Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
- Fully charge the light in time to ensure normal function the next time it is needed.
- 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 or battery explosion.
- Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the O-ring with an approved spare.
- Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp’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: Replace or recharge the battery (Ensure the battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).
B: The threads, PCB board contact or other contacts are dirty. Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
If the above methods don’t work, please contact your authorized distributor.
