• LED Light & Laser Combo: This mode combines the powerful LED light with the green aiming laser. Activation is similar to LED Light Only.

2. To Unlock: Rotate the front cap clockwise until it is fully tightened. The light will now be operational.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning

Regularly clean the lens with a soft, clean cloth to maintain optimal light output. For the body of the unit, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

2. Battery Replacement

Replace the CR123A battery when the light output diminishes or the laser becomes dim. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the Setup section.

Troubleshooting

• Light/Laser Not Activating:
  • Ensure the front cap is fully tightened. If it's slightly unscrewed, the Safe Off feature will prevent activation.
  • Check the battery. Replace with a fresh CR123A battery if needed.
  • Verify battery orientation. The positive (+) end should face the light head.
• Laser Adjustment Issues:
  • If the windage or elevation adjustment screw feels stripped or does not respond, cease adjustment and contact Streamlight customer support.
• Intermittent Operation:
  • Ensure the light is securely mounted to the rail. Loose connections can cause intermittent power.
