6. Charging Instructions
The Ascher bike lights are USB rechargeable for convenience.
- Locate the Micro-USB charging port on each light. This is typically covered by a rubber flap to ensure water resistance.
- Connect the provided USB charging cable to the light's port and the other end to a USB power source (e.g., computer, wall adapter, power bank).
- The headlight's indicator will turn red when the battery power is too low, signaling a need for charging. During charging, the indicator light will typically show charging status (e.g., red for charging, green for fully charged).
- Once fully charged, disconnect the cable and ensure the rubber flap is securely closed to maintain water resistance.
