- Battery Care: If the flashlight will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent leakage. Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
- Cleaning: Clean the flashlight body with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasives.
- Water Resistance: Ensure all parts are screwed on tightly before exposing the flashlight to water to maintain its IPX8 rating.

6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Flashlight does not turn on. | Battery is depleted or incorrectly inserted. Loose tail cap. | Charge the battery. Ensure battery is inserted with positive (+) end towards the head. Tighten the tail cap. |
| Light output is dim or flickers. | Low battery. Dirty contacts. | Recharge the battery. Clean battery contacts and flashlight contacts with a cotton swab. |
| Flashlight gets hot during use. | Normal operation at high output levels. | This is normal due to the high power output. The Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) will automatically reduce output to prevent overheating. If it becomes excessively hot, switch to a lower mode. |
| Charging indicator not working. | Cable or power source issue. | Try a different USB Type-C cable or power adapter. Ensure the cable is fully inserted. |
