Remote Control Battery
The remote control is powered by a CR2032 button cell battery. This battery is replaceable and has a standby time of 3-5 years (based on 30 uses per day).
To replace the battery, carefully open the remote control casing and insert a new CR2032 battery, ensuring correct polarity.
Water Resistance
The taillight is IP64 rated waterproof, meaning it is protected from dust ingress and splashing water from any direction. It can be used in small to moderate rain conditions within a temperature range of -4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C).
Note: While water-resistant, avoid submerging the device in water.
Troubleshooting
- Taillight not turning on:
- Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a USB power source and check the charging indicator.
- Verify the remote control battery is functional.
- Ensure the taillight is paired correctly with the remote control. Refer to pairing instructions if available (not explicitly in provided data, but common for such devices).
- Remote control not responding:
- Check the CR2032 battery in the remote control and replace if necessary.
- Ensure the remote is within the wireless range (30-60m) of the taillight.
- Alarm not triggering or too sensitive/insensitive:
- Ensure the alarm is armed using the remote control.
- Adjust the sensitivity level (7 levels available) via the remote control settings (specific method not detailed in input, but implied by "7 levels adjustable sensitivity").
- Turn signals or brake light not working:
- Ensure the taillight has sufficient battery charge.
