Setup and Charging
Battery Installation
The Pelican 8060 flashlight comes with 4 C NiMH rechargeable batteries pre-installed. If replacing batteries, ensure they are inserted with the correct polarity as indicated inside the battery compartment.
Charging the Flashlight
To charge the flashlight, place it into its designated charging dock. The flashlight features two metal contacts on its body that align with the contacts in the charging unit. Ensure a secure connection.
A red indicator light on the flashlight will illuminate to confirm that it is charging. The light will change color or turn off once charging is complete, depending on the specific charging unit model.
Operating Instructions
Turning On/Off and Mode Selection
The Pelican 8060 features two activation points: a side switch and a tail-cap switch. Both switches can be used to turn the flashlight on and off, and to cycle through its various light modes.
- Side Switch: Press the textured side switch to activate the flashlight. Subsequent presses will cycle through the available modes (High, Medium, Low, Strobe). Press and hold to turn off.
- Tail-Cap Switch: Press the tail-cap switch for momentary activation or click for constant on. Rapid presses can also cycle through modes.
Mode Programming
The Pelican 8060 allows for customizable mode sequences. Refer to the detailed programming instructions in the full user manual for specific steps on how to set your preferred sequence of high, medium, low, and strobe modes.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the flashlight body with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For the lens, use a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or lens coating.
Battery Care
To maximize battery life, avoid completely discharging the NiMH battery pack. Recharge the flashlight regularly, especially after prolonged use. If storing the flashlight for an extended period, ensure the battery is fully charged and recharge every few months to prevent deep discharge.
Troubleshooting
- Flashlight not turning on: Ensure the battery pack is properly inserted and fully charged. Check the charging contacts for any obstruction or corrosion.
- Dim light output: Recharge the battery pack. If using standard C batteries, replace them with fresh ones. Clean the lens surface.
- Modes not switching: Ensure the switches are clean and free of debris. Press the switches firmly and deliberately to cycle through modes.
- Charging indicator not lighting up: Verify the flashlight is correctly seated in the charging dock and the power adapter is connected to a live outlet. Check charging contacts for cleanliness.
