THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
1. Operating time for this lantern depends on whether it is run continuously or
intermittently. Intermittent operation extends the run time of a set of batteries.
2. In cold temperatures, the fluorescent tube is more difficult to light and may be
dim until it warms up. Below 20˚F (-7˚C), the bulb may not light.
3. When the fluorescent tubes are not lit to full brilliance, batteries should be
replaced. If this is not done and lantern is used, the tubes will become blackened.
4. IMPORTANT: Do not leave discharged batteries in the lantern for an extended
period of time as this could permanently damage the lantern.
5. To clean the outside of the lantern and globe, use only a damp cloth and mild
dishwashing liquid. Avoid excessive water and strong cleaner which can damage
the lantern.
Fluorescent tube(s) contains mercury (Hg) and
must be recycled or disposed of according to
local, state or federal laws. Call [phone]
or visit www.coleman.com/recycle for recycling
instructions or safe disposal locations.
