ELECTRICAL SAFETY
In the United Kingdom, the ELECTRICITY AT WORK ACT 1989 requires all portable electrical
appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified electrician, using a
Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year. The HEALTH & SAFETY AT WORK ACT
1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the
appliance and the safety of its operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a
qualified electrician.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be fitted in the mains electricity distribution
board. If the power supply is not protected by an RCCB, it is highly recommended that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is used with all portable electrical products.
UNPACKING
It is recommended that you save the packaging material for future transportation of the
Inspection Lamp in the event of service or repair.
Packaging materials especially bags, must be kept well away from babies and children.

CHARGING
The charger is for indoor use only.
Charge the battery for more than 10 hours before initial use.
Recharge fully once a month when not in use.
When in use, all 36 LEDs flash on and off 3 times to warn that the Inspection Lamp will soon
need recharging.
When a small red LED comes on in the centre of the lens, this means that the battery is
becoming discharged and that it needs charging.
The inspection lamp will not work whilst it is being charged.
1. Plug the charger into a mains socket.
2. Connect the lead from the charger to the charging point on the end of the rubber handle of
the Inspection Lamp and switch the mains power on.
3. A small LED in the centre of the lens will change from red to green and back to red to
indicate that charging is taking place.
4. When charging is complete, the LED will change from red to green. Switch the mains power
off, disconnect the charger from the Inspection Lamp and store the charger in a safe place.
N.B. If the red LED is still on after 3hrs, unplug and try charging again.

Inspection Lamp by holding the main body and the clamp firmly in each hand and manoeuvre
until the desired position is achieved.
