COMPATABILITY:
This light module is only designed to be used with the Arclight Multi Mounts or with the Arclight Bicycle Pedals.
INCLUDED:
– 1x Arclight Light Module
– 1x Arclight Multi Mount
– 1x Rubber Band
– 1x Long Screw
– 1x Spacer
– 1x Ziptie
*NOTE: These instructions cover the Arclight Light Module and Multi Mount. Depending on which product you purchased, your box will include all or some of these components.
BEFORE YOU START:
Charge the Arclight Light Module.
Plug the light module into any female USB slot. The indicator light on each
light module will switch from orange to green when it is fully charged. After
10 minutes, the green light will shut off.
*NOTE: In order to maintain battery health, store the light modules in a charged state. Battery capacity will decrease if the battery is stored fully discharged.
STEP 1:
Remove Light Modules from the charger and insert them into Multi
Mount.
You should hear a magnetic click.
STEP 2:
Attach Multi Mount to your bicycle in either a horizontal or vertical
position.
Use a rubber band to wrap around the mounting location and secure the Multi
Mount in place. If mounting in the vertical orientation – ensure the button is
facing up.
Adjust the mounting bracket if needed for the perfect fit using a 2.5mm
allen key.
You can unscrew the mounting bracket and move it to the top orientation. You
can also add in the provided spacer using the longer screw to give more space
if needed.
*NOTE: Do not over-tighten the screw. Should be snug, with no more than 1Nm torque.
STEP 3:
Press the button on the light module to turn it on and select mode.
The light module will automatically switch from white to red depending on the
orientation of the multi-mount.
*NOTE: If the light is not horizontal or vertical, it may struggle to set the correct color.
| First Press | Steady Light | 3+ hours of battery life |
|---|---|---|
| Second Press | Flash | 11+ hours of battery life |
| Third Press | Eco Flash | 36 + hours of battery life |
*NOTE: The battery life will vary depending on usage and conditions.
STEP 4:
Switch the color if it is not in the correct orientation.
The light module shines red for the rear, and white for the front. If it sets
to the wrong color, remove the arclight module and flip the magnet at the top
of the mount to the opposite side.
*NOTE: Use a 2-4mm Allen key to poke out the magnet from the rear.
*NOTE: Removing the magnet disables the color switching and auto on/off features.
STEP 5:
(OPTIONAL) – Use the provided zip tie to securely mount the Multi-Mount
for a more permanent fit.
Unscrew the mounting bracket and feed the zip tie through the holes. Close the
zip tie around your mounting location. The rubber band is no longer necessary.
