Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Cygolite Metro Pro 1100, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the light's body and lens with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or lens.
• Storage: Store the light in a cool, dry place when not in use. If storing for an extended period, ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50%) to maintain battery health.
• Water Resistance: The light is IP67 waterproof, meaning it is protected from dust and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, avoid prolonged submersion and ensure the USB port cover is securely closed to maintain water resistance.
• Charging Port: Keep the Micro USB charging port clean and free of debris. Ensure the rubber cover for the charging port is properly sealed after charging to prevent water and dust ingress.
