1. L508 Radar Tail Light: Attach the seat post mount to your bicycle's seat post using the provided silicone straps. Ensure the mount is secure and the radar unit faces directly backward. The L508 unit then attaches to this mount with a quarter-turn mechanism.
2. AT1600 Front Light: Secure the front light mount to your handlebars. Insert the AT1600 light into the mount, ensuring it is firmly locked in place and provides clear forward illumination.

Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge both the AT1600 Front Light and L508 Radar Tail Light using the provided USB-C charging cables. Connect the cable to the charging port on each device and a compatible USB power source. An indicator light will typically show charging status and completion.

App Connectivity and Customization

To unlock the full potential of your Magene lights and radar, download the official Magene app (available for iOS and Android devices). The app allows for comprehensive customization of various features, including light modes, radar settings, and more.

Operating Instructions

L508 Radar Tail Light Operation

• Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button on the L508 unit to turn it on or off.
• Radar Detection: When paired with a compatible cycling computer (e.g., Garmin), the L508 radar will detect approaching vehicles from behind. Visual and auditory alerts will be provided on your cycling computer, indicating the number and proximity of vehicles.
• Brake Light Function: The L508 features an accelerometer that detects deceleration. When you slow down, the tail light will automatically switch from its current mode to a solid, brighter light, similar to a car's brake light, to alert traffic behind you. This feature can often be configured via the companion app.
• Auto-Off (Sleep Mode): To conserve battery, the L508 radar tail light is equipped with an auto-off function. If the device remains stationary for a set duration (configurable via the app), it will automatically power down. This is particularly useful during coffee breaks or when the bike is parked.

AT1600 Front Light Operation

• Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button on the AT1600 unit to turn it on or off.
• Changing Modes: Short press the power button to cycle through different lighting modes (e.g., steady, flashing, high, low). Refer to the specific AT1600 manual for detailed mode descriptions and brightness levels.
• Smart Features: When connected to the Magene app and other sensors, the AT1600 can adjust its lighting output based on riding conditions, such as speed or ambient light, for optimized visibility and battery usage.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the devices with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Charging: Recharge the batteries regularly, especially after long rides or if the battery indicator is low. While battery life varies with usage and light modes, a full charge typically supports multiple rides.
• Storage: Store the lights in a cool, dry place when not in use. For long-term storage, ensure the batteries are partially charged (around 50%) to maintain battery health.
• Waterproofing: The Magene AT1600 and L508 are designed with durable, all-weather protection. The L508 is rated to IPX7 for waterproofing, meaning it can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. The AT1600 is rated to IPX6, protecting against powerful water jets. Ensure the charging port covers are securely closed to maintain water resistance.

Troubleshooting

• Device Not Powering On: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a power source and try again.
• Connectivity Issues: Check if Bluetooth is enabled on your cycling computer or smartphone. Ensure the devices are within range. Try restarting both the light/radar and the connected device.
• Radar Not Detecting Vehicles: Ensure the L508 is mounted correctly and facing directly backward without obstruction. Check for firmware updates via the Magene app.
• Light Not Changing Modes: A short press of the power button should cycle modes. If not, try a factory reset (refer to the full instruction manual for specific steps) or contact support.
• Inaccurate Brake Light Function: Ensure the L508 is mounted securely and is not experiencing excessive vibrations that could interfere with the accelerometer. Adjust sensitivity settings if available in the app.
