MAIN FUSE
This unit is delivered with the main fuse taped to the bottom of the unit. It must be inserted as indicated prior to operation.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
The unit is delivered in a partially charged state. It must be fully charged prior to first use by either the 120 volt AC method (preferred) or the 12 volt DC method.
After initial charging, the VEC189 can be simultaneously recharged and operated (using the 12 Volt DC method only). Make sure the 12 volt DC power source can supply minimum 15 amperes of current if the Spotlight is to be operated while the batteries are being charged.
After charging, disconnect the Adapter from the external power source, then disconnect the Adapter from the AC Recharge Port or 12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet.

The LED will light to indicate that the unit is charging. Time required to initially charge the unit using this method is approximately 30 to 35 hours. The LED Charging Indicator will blink when the unit is fully charged. The
Spotlight cannot be used while recharging using this method.
12 Volt DC Charging/Recharging
The DC recharging method will NOT recharge the unit as effectively as the 120 volt AC method. The 12 volt DC recharging procedure is recommended only when it is necessary, since frequent use of the 12 volt DC recharging procedure may shorten the battery system’s life.
