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 VEC192 can be simultaneously recharged (using the 12 Volt DC method only) and operated. When recharging and operating the Spotlight at the same time, single beam operation is recommended.

When using the 12 volt DC recharging method, make sure the power source can supply minimum 15 amperes of current if the Spotlight is to be operated while the battery is 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 Charging/Power Port.

It is recommended that you charge the Spotlight after each use (or every 2 months when not in frequent use) until the green LED lights so the unit is always ready when you need it.

120 Volt AC Charging/Recharging

Plug the supplied 120 Volt AC Adapter’s plug into a standard North American outlet. Connect the Adapter’s DC barrel connector to the AC Recharge Port located on the top/rear of the grip handle. Time required to initially charge the unit using this method is approximately 30 to 35 hours. The green Charging LED Indicator will light when the unit is fully

charged. The AC charging/recharging method will not work while the Spotlight is in use.

12 Volt DC Charging/Recharging

The DC recharging method will NOT recharge the unit as effectively as the 120 volt AC method. This method is recommended only when it is necessary, since frequent use of the 12 volt DC recharging procedure may shorten the battery system’s life.

1.Insert the gold-tipped end plug of the 12 Volt DC Charging/Power Adapter plug into the vehicle’s 12 volt DC accessory outlet.

2.Insert the silver-tipped end plug into the 12 Volt DC Charging/Power Port on the back of the handle of the unit.

3.Charging time using this method is approximately 5 to 6 hours.

4.When charging is complete, remove the power cord immediately and return it to the storage compartment.

The Spotlight CAN be used while recharging using the 12 Volt DC method. If doing so, single beam operation is recommended.

Notes: When using a vehicle’s 12 volt DC accessory outlet as a charging/power source, be aware that some vehicles require the ignition be turned on to power the accessory outlet.

CAUTION

Before connecting either Adapter to the VEC192 to charge or recharge the unit’s battery, make sure all power switches are in the OFF position.

Checking Battery Charge Status

Plugging in either the 120 Volt AC Adapter turns on the LED Charging Indicators. Two red LEDs indicate a moderate level of charge; and one red LED indicates that the unit should be charged soon. The green LED lights to show a fully charged unit.
