MOUNTING THE CHARGER

CHARGER INPUT: 12 VDC Max
WARNING : While the XPR-5568 Angle Light is certified as an intrinsically safe product, the charger is NOT intrinsically safe. The charger MUST be installed in a location far enough outside of the hazardous environment to ensure that it can never come in contact with any potentially explosive materials.
Tools required for installation:

• Small level
• Hammer
• Small center punch or nail
• Electric drill and drill bits to suit the wall material and anchoring method y #2 Phillips screwdriver

The Nightstick wall/vehicle charger is designed to mount to any flat, dry surface. The design of the charger will secure the angle light into the charger at any angle and the charger can be mounted at any angle. These instructions are for mounting the charger vertically.
Four (4) Pan Head screws (included) can be used to install the charger to most surfaces, however special hardware may be needed for some situations.

• Select a location to install the charger. Check that there are no electrical wires, water lines, etc. on the other side of the mounting surface.
• Check the distance to the AC wall outlet or the 10v DC power outlet to make sure the AC or DC power supply will reach the charger when it is plugged in. Relocate the charger’s location as needed.
• Once the location has been selected, use a hammer and a small center punch or nail to mark all 4 of the hole locations.
• If the charger is being installed onto drywall, you will need to install 4 – Drywall Anchors (included). Use a drill bit to drill 4 holes through the drywall in the locations of the nail marks. Use a Phillips screwdriver to install all 4 drywall anchors into the wall until they are flush with the surface.

METAL SURFACE: If the charger is being installed onto a metal surface, drill 4 appropriately sized holes. The diameter of the drill bit required will be determined by the type of metal and the thickness of the material.
WOOD SURVACE: If the charger is being installed onto a wooden surface, drill a pilot hole in all 4 locations.

• The mounting screw holes can be accessed from the top of the charger when the light is not installed in the charger.
• Line up the mounting holes for the charger with the pilot holes (or drywall anchors) and carefully insert each of the supplied Pan Head screws into the mounting holes from the front of the charger. Give each screw a small turn by hand to get each one started.
• Hand-tighten each screw with a screwdriver until the charger is securely affixed to the mounting surface. CAUTION: Do not use an electric drill or drill driver to install the screws. Do not over-tighten because it could damage the mounting holes in the charger.
• Plug either the AC or DC power supply cord into the power port on the bottom of the charger and then into the appropriate power outlet.
• The LED charge indicator light on the charger will momentarily light up GREEN, then turn RED and then turn off. This is normal behavior when the angle light is not installed in the charger.
• The charger is now ready to use.

PLACING THE ANGLE LIGHT INTO THE CHARGER

The Nightstick charger is designed to securely hold a properly installed XPR-5568 Angle Light in place under conditions up to and including 9g of lateral force meeting the requirements of NFPA 1901 (2009).
WARNING: Installing the Angle Light into the charger MUST be done using the following steps. Failure to do so could damage the charger or its ability to hold the Angle Light securely in place.

The spring-loaded tab located on the bottom of the charger, is designed to hold the bottom base of the Angle Light securely in place.

• Firmly grip the Angle Light in one hand and press the bottom of the Angle Lights base downward onto the black spring-loaded tab and then push the base of the Angle Light forward into the charger until it slips past the spring-loaded tab and snaps into the charger.

Confirmation of proper installation can be seen in the LED Charge Indicator Light. When the Angle Light is properly installed in the charger, and power is being supplied by the Nightstick AC or DC Power Supply, the LED Charge Indicator Light on the charger will light up constant RED indicating that the unit is being charged.

REMOVING THE ANGLE LIGHT FROM THE CHARGER

• Firmly grip the Angle Light and pull straight back from the charging cradle.
• NO NEED TO PRESS BUTTON to disengage light from charging base.

CHARGING THE ANGLE LIGHT

WARNING: Use only the supplied Charger, Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack and AC or DC Power Supply for charging. Do not attempt to charge this light with non-rechargeable or rechargeable AA batteries installed.

• The time required to charge the Angle Light is conditional on the remaining charge left in the Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack at the time of charging. The maximum charge time required is approximately 6 hours.
• Fully charge the Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack before the first use, or if the Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack has been unused for several months.
• Install the Angle Light into the charger using the exact method described in this Instruction Manual above (“PLACING THE ANGLE LIGHT INTO THE CHARGER”). WARNING: Failure to do so could damage the charger and/or the light.
• When the Angle Light is properly seated in the charger, the LED Charge Indicator light will turn solid RED indicating that the Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack is charging. The Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack is fully charged when the LED Charge Indicator light turns GREEN.
• The Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery Pack does not have any Recharge Memory Effect, therefore placing the Angle Light in the charger prior to full depletion of the battery does not adversely affect the battery life. The Angle Light can be kept in the charger indefinitely without any negative impact on the battery or the battery life.
