ommended every two months, when not in frequent use. Use the AC recharger and
charge for the recommended time. If the unit gets dirty gently clean the outer surface of
the spotlight unit with a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and detergent.
Periodically inspect the condition of recharge adapters, connectors, and wires. Replace
any components that may have become worn or broken.

Three parts are replaceable by users. The quartz halogen bulb and sealed lead acid battery
are proprietary and are available through Vector Products, Inc.. A substitute 12 volt H3 100
watt bulb may be used instead of a Vector bulb. These can also be purchased from popular
automotive parts suppliers nationwide. The DC charging adapter fuse is replaceable.
Contact Vector Products, Inc.’s Technical Support Department for replacement parts and any
additional information that you may need. They may be reached toll free 866-584-5504.

do not over-tighten.
7. Check for proper operation of DC charging adapter.
