2. Safety Information

• Do not expose the lantern to extreme temperatures or direct flame.
• Avoid disassembling or modifying the device, as this may void the warranty and pose safety risks.

• Ensure all ports are properly sealed when not in use, especially in wet conditions, to maintain IPX4 water resistance.

3. Setup

3.1 Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge your Lepwings Solar Camping Lantern. You have two primary charging methods:

1. USB Charging:
   Locate the USB-C input port on the base of the lantern, protected by a rubber flap. Connect the provided USB-C cable to this port and the other end to a USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port. The charging indicator light will illuminate red while charging and turn green when fully charged. A full charge typically takes approximately 3 hours.
2. Solar Charging:
   Unfold the two solar panels located on the sides of the lantern. Place the lantern in direct sunlight with the solar panels facing upwards. The charging indicator light will illuminate red while charging and turn green when fully charged. Solar charging time varies depending on sunlight intensity, but typically takes longer than USB charging.

• The lantern will begin charging your device. Note that using the power bank function will consume the lantern's battery life.
