2. Safety Precautions

• Heat Generation: The bicycle light generates heat during use, which is normal. If the temperature becomes too high, stop using the light until it cools down.
• Storage: If the light is not used for an extended period, charge it every three months to maintain battery health.
• Eye Safety: Do not direct the light beam into eyes. Keep away from flammable and explosive objects.
• Water Resistance: The waterproof rating is IPX5. Do not submerge the bicycle light in water.
• Placement: Store the bicycle light properly, out of reach of children.

3. Setup and Installation

Mounting the Light:

1. Fix the Base: Attach the mounting bracket to your bicycle handlebar using the provided screws and screwdriver. Ensure it is securely fastened.
2. Attach the Light: Align the main body of the headlight with the slot on the base. Slide the light backward until it clicks into place.
3. Removal: To remove the light, press down on the release clip first, then pull the light forward out of the bracket.

4. Operating Instructions

Charging the Light:

• Connect the provided Micro USB cable to the light's input port and to a USB power source (e.g., computer, wall adapter).
• During charging, the four blue LED power indicators will breathe (blink sequentially).
• Once fully charged (approximately 9 hours), all four blue LED indicators will remain steadily lit.

Light Modes:

Press the switch button to cycle through the different lighting modes.

Figure 4: Overview of light modes and approximate runtimes.

1. Mode 1: Strong Light (Wide) - Single lamp bead at 100% power. Approximate runtime: 5.5 hours.
2. Mode 2: Smart Mode (Dual Lamp) - Automatically adjusts brightness based on ambient light. It starts in highlight mode for 40 seconds, then transitions to smart mode. It will automatically dim in bright conditions and brighten in dark conditions. Approximate runtime: 5 hours.
3. Mode 3: Low Light (Wide) - Single lamp bead at 60% power. Approximate runtime: 10 hours.
4. Mode 4: Strobe - Flashing mode. Approximate runtime: 18 hours.
5. Mode 5: Highest Brightness Mode (Full) - Double-click the switch twice quickly from any mode to enter this mode. Both lamp beads operate at maximum brightness (6000 lumens). This mode generates significant heat; use it primarily while riding to allow for airflow. Approximate runtime: 3 hours.

Smart Light Sensor:

The integrated smart light sensor (Figure 5) automatically detects ambient light conditions and adjusts the light output in Smart Mode (Mode 2) for optimal visibility and battery efficiency.

Power Bank Function:

The LIG011 can also function as a power bank. Connect your device (e.g., smartphone) to the USB-A output port to charge it. This function can be used even while the light is operating.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the light body with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Battery Care: As mentioned in precautions, charge the light every three months if not in regular use to prevent deep discharge and prolong battery life.
• Storage: Store the light in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

6. Troubleshooting

• Light Not Turning On: Ensure the battery is charged. If fully charged and still not turning on, try pressing the power button firmly.
• Light Not Charging: Check the USB cable and power source. Ensure the Micro USB cable is fully inserted into the charging port.
• Overheating: If the light becomes excessively hot, especially in the highest brightness mode, turn it off and allow it to cool down. This mode is designed for use while riding to benefit from airflow.
• Mount Instability: If the light feels loose or unstable on the handlebar, ensure the mounting bracket screws are tightened securely. Consider replacing the plastic mount with a more robust metal alternative if issues persist (see User Tips).

8. User Tips

• Mount Upgrade: Many users find the included plastic handlebar mount to be less robust, especially given the light's weight. For increased security and stability, consider purchasing a sturdier metal mount.
• Heat Management: The highest brightness mode (6000 lumens) generates significant heat. It is best used while actively cycling to allow airflow to cool the unit. Monitor the temperature during prolonged use.
• Charging Time: The 10000mAh battery provides long runtimes but also requires a substantial charging period (approx. 9 hours). Plan your charging accordingly.
• No Horn/Speaker: Please note that despite some packaging or descriptions, this model does not include a horn or speaker function.
• Power Bank Use: The power bank feature can be used simultaneously with the light, allowing you to charge your devices while riding.
