Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your OLIGHT Baton3 Pro, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the flashlight body with a clean, soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Threads and O-rings: Periodically lubricate the threads and O-rings with silicone grease to maintain water resistance.
- Battery Care: If storing the flashlight for an extended period, charge the battery to approximately 50% and remove it from the device if possible (though the Baton3 Pro battery is integrated, ensure it's not fully depleted during long storage). Recharge every few months to prevent deep discharge.
- Avoid Impact: While durable, avoid dropping the flashlight or subjecting it to severe impacts, which could damage internal components.
