1. Locate the USB-C input port on the flashlight (usually covered by a rubber flap).
2. Connect the provided USB-C cable to the flashlight's USB-C input port.
3. Connect the other end of the USB-C cable to a compatible USB power source (e.g., USB wall adapter, computer USB port, power bank).

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Power On/Off

• Press the power button once to turn the flashlight ON.
• Press and hold the power button for approximately 2 seconds to turn the flashlight OFF.

5.2 Changing Lighting Modes

The PA160 features 5 lighting modes: High, Middle, Low, Strobe, and SOS.

• With the flashlight ON, press the power button repeatedly to cycle through the modes in the following order: High → Middle → Low → Strobe → SOS.
• Release the button on your desired mode.

5.3 Adjusting Focus (Zoomable Function)

The flashlight head can be extended or retracted to adjust the beam focus.

• **For Floodlight (Wide Beam):** Push the flashlight head inwards towards the body. This provides a wide beam, ideal for illuminating a large area like a room (up to 500 square meters).
• **For Spotlight (Narrow Beam):** Pull the flashlight head outwards away from the body. This creates a concentrated, narrow beam for long-range illumination (up to 3280 feet).

5.4 Power Indicator

The flashlight features a 4-cell power indicator to display the remaining battery life:

• 4 lights solid: >75% battery
• 3 lights solid: >50% battery
• 2 lights solid: >25% battery
• 1 light solid: <25% battery (recharge soon)

6. Maintenance

6.1 Charging the Flashlight

To ensure optimal performance and battery longevity, charge the flashlight using the provided USB-C cable when the power indicator shows low battery. The built-in smart chip provides overcharging protection.

• Connect the USB-C cable to the flashlight's input port and a USB power source.
• Monitor the 4-cell power indicator; all lights solid indicate a full charge.

6.2 Discharging Function (Power Bank)

The PA160 can also act as a power bank to charge other USB devices.

• Locate the USB output port on the flashlight (usually covered by a rubber flap).
• Connect your device's charging cable to the flashlight's USB output port.
• The flashlight will begin charging your device.

Refer to the image under 'Initial Charging' for visual reference of the USB-C input and USB output ports.

6.3 Water Resistance and Durability

The flashlight is IPX7 water-resistant, meaning it can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. It is suitable for use in rain or snow. The aviation-grade aluminum alloy body provides excellent impact resistance, capable of withstanding a 10-foot drop.

6.4 General Care

• Clean the flashlight with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Store the flashlight in a cool, dry place when not in use.
• If not using for an extended period, remove the AAA batteries to prevent leakage. The rechargeable battery can be left inside but should be charged periodically.

7. Troubleshooting

8. User Tips

• Always keep the USB port cover securely closed to maintain water resistance, especially in wet environments.
• For maximum brightness and runtime, ensure the 6000mAh rechargeable battery is fully charged before extended use.
• The Strobe and SOS modes are excellent for signaling in emergency situations. Familiarize yourself with how to activate them quickly.
• Utilize the adjustable focus to switch between a wide floodlight for general area illumination and a narrow spotlight for long-distance viewing.
• The power bank feature is convenient for charging small devices like phones or earbuds in a pinch, but remember it will drain the flashlight's battery.
