IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR PERSONAL INJURY.

• Do not look directly at the lighted lamps to avoid eye injuries.
• Always keep the work light away from any flammable surface or materials.
• Always check damaged or worn-out parts before using the work light. Broken parts will affect the work light operation. Replace or repair the damaged or worn parts immediately. If repairs are needed, consult a professional electrician.
•  Do not use a pressure washer to clean this product.
•  Do not modify the work light in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or safety and could affect the life of the product. There are specific applications for which the work light was designed.
• Store the work light in a secure place out of the reach of children. Inspect it for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERY POWERED PRODUCTS
This work light is powered by a Lithium-ion battery pack. Lithium-ion batteries are small, compact, and ideal for providing long-lasting power to this product. However, they must be used and charged properly. Improper use can result in serious injury, fire or death.
WARNING: NEVER THROW WATER ON A BURNING LITHIUM-ION
BATTERY! If a lithium-ion battery does catch on fire, it will burn even more violently when contacted by water.
Use a fire extinguisher.

• Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery, and product using the battery.
•  Use only the charger which accompanied your product or direct replacements as listed in this manual. Do not substitute any other charger.
• Do not recharge the battery in damp or wet environments. Do not expose the battery pack or battery charger to water or rain.
•  Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug. Replace it immediately.
•  Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to a qualified serviceman.
•  Do not disassemble the charger or battery pack. Take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
•  Do not charge the battery pack when the temperature is below 50 degrees F (10 degrees C) or above 104 degrees F (40 degrees C). Store the product and battery pack in a location where the temperature will not exceed 122 degrees F (50 degrees C). This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
•  If the operating time has become excessively shorter, stop operating immediately. It may result in a risk of overheating, possible burns, and even an explosion.
•  Battery leakage may occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water. If liquid gets into your eyes, wash them out with clear water for at least 10 minutes, and then seek medical attention right away.
• Do not attempt to use a step-up transformer, an engine generator or a DC power receptacle.
• Do not short the battery pack. Do not touch the terminal with any conductive material. Avoid storing battery packs in a container with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc. Always protect the battery terminals when the battery pack is not used.
• Do not charge the battery pack inside a box or container of any kind. The battery must be placed in a well-ventilated area during charging.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
• Disconnect the charger from the power source when not in use. This will reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the charger if metal pieces should fall into the opening. It also will help prevent damage to the charger during a power surge.

WARNING: A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible burns, and even explosion.

Flashing Alert Light.
Slide the remote up to take it off the holder. Always keep it in the holder when not in use.
The maximum control range is approximately 60 feet from the light.
The remote is powered by a 3V Lithium-Ion button battery CR2032L. Remove the four screws on the back cover to replace the battery.
The included remote control has been paired with your LED Work Light at the factory. If you are using a replacement remote control, pairing the remote with the light is needed. Remove the battery pack from the light and reinstall it.
