*16340/18650 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Using low-quality batteries or mishandling batteries (such as short-circuiting or overheating) could lead to combustion and jeopardize the safety of users and property. Any adverse effects resulting from the use of low-quality batteries are not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability. Using quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion.

*The Turbo mode cannot be operated, and the Strobe mode delivers a brightness level of 800 lumens when using two CR123A batteries.

Battery Replacement:

Unscrew the tail cap and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the tail cap back on.

Charging:

1. Turn off the flashlight and open the anti-dust cover to reveal the USB Type-C charging port, then connect the USB Type-C end of the charging cable to the flashlight.
2. The indicator will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged.
3. Once charging is completed, be sure to unplug the charging cable and close the anti-dust cover.

Note:

1. The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L18-3400 battery is approximately 3 hours from depletion to fully charged with a 5 V/2 A charging adapter.
2. Recharge a stored flashlight every four months to maintain the optimum performance of the battery.
3. All modes can be turned on except the Strobe mode while charging. However, the brightness levels may vary depending on different charging statuses and battery levels.

Battery Level Indication:

With the light turned off, single click the electronic switch to check the battery status, the indicator will last for 3 seconds. Each time the light is turned on, the indicator will show the current battery level and 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%

*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 flashlight reaches a temperature of 60°C/140°F or above, it will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C/140°F, the flashlight will gradually recall the preset 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 users to replace or recharge the battery in a timely manner.

*This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.

Usage and Maintenance:

• Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the flashlight and will void the warranty.
• Fenix recommends using an excellent quality battery.
• If the flashlight will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the flashlight could be damaged by electrolyte leakage.
• Lock the flashlight or remove the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
• Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, lubricate the O-ring occasionally with a tiny amount of silicone grease or silicone oil. Replace the ring with an approved spare if worn out.
• Periodic cleaning of the flashlight and battery contacts improves the flashlight's performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate:

Problem:

A: Poor battery level.
Solution: Recharge or replace the battery.
B: The contact or contact point of the battery or flashlight is dirty.
Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.

If the above methods don't work, please contact the distributor.
