• Lateral illumination: 360° coverage is provided (a common weakness of other emergency lights).
• Attachable: Strong magnetic backing allows flare to stick well to vehicles and an extendable hook can be used to fasten flare to backpacks and saddlebags.
• Compact: FRED Light units are about the size of a hockey puck. They can be mounted or stored just about anywhere on your bike.
• Versatile: FRED Light” units can be used for emergencies such as traffic control, a warning light, and a rescue beacon. They can also be used for recreational activities such as camping and biking.
• Watertight: Great for rainy weather and marine applications.
• Non-reactive: Flares can be used in places where old-fashioned flares would be dangerous, such as in dry brush or in the presence of gasoline.

2. Note the orientation of the two tabs at the top.

3. Pull firmly on the plastic tabs to remove the cover plate.
   NOTE: The FRED Light has a very tight, waterproof seal. The initial seal may be difficult to open. If you cannot do it with your hands, you can use either a flat head screwdriver or a similar tool to pry open the unit at the plastic tabs (flanges).

4. Replace the batteries in the proper orientation shown on the battery holder. Always replace the whole set of batteries at one time, taking care not to mix old and new ones or batteries of different types.

5. Align the two tabs on the battery cover to the notches on the outer enclosure. The cover will not seal properly if not aligned to the notches.
