Warning
- Keep this lantern out of the reach of children.
- Do not shine the lantern directly into the eyes of anyone.

Operating Instructions
On/Off: With the lantern switched off, press and hold the top electronic switch for 0.5 seconds to turn on the lantern and enter Scene mode; press and hold again to turn it off. Rotate the rotary switch clockwise from the OFF state to enter General mode, and rotate it counterclockwise to the OFF state to turn off the lantern.
Mode Switching / Output Selection: In General mode, single click the top electronic switch to cycle through 360° lighting mode→Down light mode→Combined lighting mode (360° + Down light). For these three modes, rotate the rotary switch clockwise to raise brightness and counterclockwise to lower it. In Scene mode, single click the top electronic switch to cycle through Red constant-on→Red flashing→Colors jumping→Colors morphing.
Intelligent Memory Circuit: In General mode, the lantern memorizes the last selected mode and recalls it when turned on again. In Scene mode, the lantern memorizes the last selected output and recalls it when turned on again.
Charging
Open the anti-dust cover to reveal the USB Type-C charging port and connect the charging cable. When charging, the charging indicators flash from left to right; all four indicators turn constant-on once charging is complete.
Note: the lantern can be operated while charging, though the actual max output of the 360° lighting mode is limited to 100 lumens while charging. Normal charging time is approximately 3 hours from depleted to fully charged with a 5V/1A or higher power adapter. Once charging is completed, be sure to close the anti-dust cover to maintain the dustproof and waterproof ability.
Battery Level Indication
Each time the lantern is turned on, the indicator(s) show the battery level for 3 seconds. With the lantern switched off, single click the top electronic switch to check the battery level.
- Four lights on: 100% - 80%.
- Three lights on: 80% - 60%.
- Two lights on: 60% - 40%.
- One light on: 40% - 20%.
- One light flashes: 20% - 1%.
Intelligent Overheat Protection
The lantern will accumulate a lot of heat when used at high output levels for extended periods. When the lantern reaches a temperature of 50°C/122°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 lantern will gradually recall the preset output level.
Low Voltage Warning
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, one of the battery level indicators constantly blinks to remind you to recharge the battery in a timely manner. To ensure normal use, the lantern will not turn off automatically and will work until the battery level runs out.
