Troubleshooting
Torch does not turn on
Ensure that four AAA batteries are correctly inserted, paying attention to polarity (+/-). Check if the batteries are new or fully charged. Verify that the tail cap is screwed on tightly.
Light is dim or flickering
Replace the AAA batteries with fresh ones. Clean the battery contacts inside the torch and on the batteries with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure the tail cap is securely tightened.
Unable to switch between modes
Press the power button fully to cycle through the modes. Ensure the button is not stuck and that there is no debris obstructing its movement. If the issue persists, check battery contacts and ensure they are clean.
Beam adjustment is stiff
Gently twist the head of the torch to adjust the beam. If it feels stiff, try wiggling it slightly. Ensure no debris has entered the mechanism. A small amount of silicone lubricant on the threads might help if the stiffness is due to friction.
