OLED Display:

Turn on the light to activate the OLED display, which will remain on to show the current brightness level, mode, and battery level. If only one battery is inserted, the OLED display will show 

*If the battery level is lower than 10%, the battery icon on the OLED display will blink to remind users to replace or recharge the batteries in a timely manner. Meanwhile, all brightness levels of High beam mode are limited to 200 lumens, while those of Low beam mode are limited to 50 lumens.

Intelligent Memory Circuit:

The light automatically memorises the previously used output excluding Flash and Turbo. When turned on again, the previously selected output will be recalled.

Battery Specifications:

Fenix ARB-L18 Series 18650 3.6 V Recommended √√
Rechargeable Battery (Li-ion) 18650 3.6 V/3.7 V Caution* !
Rechargeable Battery (LiFePO4) 18650 3.2 V Banned ×

Do not mix batteries of different types or ages. Doing so may cause damage to the light or the batteries being used.
18650 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Using low-quality batteries or mishandling batteries (such as short-circuiting or overheating) could lead to combustion and jeopardize the safety of users and property. Any adverse effect resulting from the use of low-quality batteries is not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability. Using quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion.

Battery Replacement:

Bicycle Light:

1. Rotate the tail cap lever in the direction of the "OPEN" logo, and pull out of the battery case.
2. Insert the batteries according to the polarity marks of the battery case.
3. Insert the battery case into the light body, and push the case fully home while rotating the tail cap lever in the clockwise direction.

Wireless Remote:

Insert a coin into the back of the wireless remote, rotate the coin counter clockwise to open the battery cover; then insert the battery and tighten the back cover clockwise.
*Replace the CR1632 button battery every 3 months to maintain the peak performance.

Charging:

Turn off the bicycle light and open the anti-dust cover. Plug the USB Type-C end of the charging cable into the charging port.
The OLED display will show (battery logo plus lightning flash) while charging

 and then show 

once charging is completed and the charging cable is unplugged.
Once charging is completed, be sure to unplug the charging cable and close the anti-dust cover.

Note:

The Eco, Low, and Med outputs of Low beam mode and the Low and Med outputs of High beam mode can be activated while charging, but the charging time will be prolonged.

Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain the optimum performance of the batteries.
With the light turned off, the normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L18-3400 batteries is approximately 3.5 hours from depleted to fully charged with a 9 V/2 A charging adapter.
The wireless remote cannot be operated while charging due to charging circuit protection.

Power specifications:
◎Charging voltage: 9 V
◎Charging power: 18 W (9 V/2 A)
◎This bicycle light supports fast charging.
◎Only use a certified USB charging adapter that complies with the government safety standards of the country or region where this product is sold.

Mounting Instructions for the Bicycle Light and the Wireless Remote:

1. Loosen the screw of the bicycle mount. Fix the bicycle mount in the desired position on the bike handlebar and fasten the screw.
2. Hold the light and slide it into the mount until a distinct “click” is heard.
3. Fasten the strap of the wireless remote to the desired position on the bike handlebar.

Note:

1. Adjust the direction of the light before testing the power and functions of the bicycle light.
2. Use the shims provided according to the diameter of the bicycle’s handlebars:
Thick only: diameter 22-28 mm;
Thin only: diameter 28-32 mm;
No shim required: diameter 32-35 mm.

Intelligent Overheat Protection:

The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used at high output levels for extended periods. When the light reaches 55°C/131°F or above, it will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 50°C/122°F, the light will gradually recall the pre-set output level.

Low-voltage Warning:

When the voltage level drops below the pre-set level, the light is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness until Eco output is reached. When this happens in Eco output, the battery icon on the display will blink to remind users to replace or recharge the batteries. To ensure normal use, the light will not turn off automatically, and the battery icon on the OLED display will keep blinking till the battery level runs out.
*This only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.

Usage and Maintenance:

◎Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
◎Replace or recharge the batteries in time to ensure normal use for next time.
◎Fenix recommends using excellent quality batteries.
◎If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage.
◎Recharge a stored light every three months to maintain optimum battery performance.
◎Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
◎Periodic cleaning of the light and battery contacts improves the light's performance as dirty contacts may cause flickering, intermittent operation or even failure to illuminate.
