Zoom Function:

The flashlight features an adjustable zoom function to switch between a wide floodlight and a focused spotlight beam.

• To Zoom Out (Floodlight): Extend the head of the flashlight forward. This provides a wider beam for illuminating larger areas.
• To Zoom In (Spotlight): Retract the head of the flashlight backward. This concentrates the light into a narrow, long-distance beam.

6. Maintenance

Cleaning:

Wipe the flashlight with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the charging port is closed and dry before cleaning.

Storage:

Store the flashlight in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For long-term storage, charge the battery every 3-6 months to maintain its health.

Water Resistance:

The Blukar K9171 is water-resistant (IPX6 rated), meaning it can withstand splashes and rain. However, it is not designed for submersion in water. Always ensure the zoom head is fully retracted to protect the USB-C port from moisture when not charging.

7. Troubleshooting

• Flashlight does not turn on:
  • Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a power source and check the charging indicator.
  • Press the power button firmly.
• Light is dim or flickers:
  • The battery level may be low. Recharge the flashlight.
• Charging indicator does not light up:
  • Ensure the USB-C cable is properly connected to both the flashlight and the power source.
  • Try a different USB-C cable or power adapter.
  • Ensure the charging port is clean and free of debris.
• Flashlight gets warm during use:
  • It is normal for the flashlight body to warm up, especially on High mode, as the aluminum alloy acts as a heatsink. If it becomes excessively hot, reduce the brightness mode or turn it off to cool down.
