Damage may occur with reversed battery polarity.
CAUTION: MRV-SIDEKICK Ultra 3 PLUS flashlights are high-output lighting devices.
Due to possible eye injury, DO NOT look directly into the reflector when the light is
switched on. Do not shine the MRV-SIDEKICK Ultra 3 PLUS into the eyes of others.
Safety is your responsibility. External surface temperature will rise during prolonged
operation; this is a normal operating phenomenon.
The Ultra mode should only be use under monitoring and proper cooling is need (fan
cooling or hold by hand to regulate the heat gen.), It is recommend to use the Ultra mode
less than 5 minutes or less to prevent over heating
Battery Replacement
If there is significant decrease in brightness of light output you should replace the batteries
with freshly charged batteries. Unscrew the Tail switch cover and remove the old battery.
Insert a new battery as mentioned in Battery Installation Guide
WARNING: Lithium batteries can explode or cause burns if disassembled, shorted,
recharged, exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures. Do not place loose batteries in a
pocket, purse or other container containing metal objects or store with hazardous or
combustible materials. Store in cool, dry, ventilated area. Follow applicable laws and
regulations for disposal.
Never use mixed-battery types or brands. Do not mix charged and uncharged
batteries. Input voltage limited to 12V, never use 4 x 16340 which may cause
circuit damage (with optional M-65 attached). Only use 2 x 18650 or 2 x 17650
or 4 x CR123A with M65. Power ON MRV-SIDEKICK Ultra 3 PLUS at Ultra-out
position unattended over 10 minutes may cause overheating and damage.
Maintenance
Clean and lubricate threads with a clean cloth and apply thin coat of silicon-based lubricant
to rubber O-rings. Note: Do not use petroleum-based lubrication on O-rings. After
prolonged exposure to moisture, the bezel and batteries should be removed, inspected,
and dried if necessary.
WARNING: Lumapower reflectors are made with a highly precise process. Do not
touch or clean the reflecting surface using any cloth which may cause damage to the
surface material affecting the illuminating performance.
Inactive Periods.
If MRV-SIDEKICK Ultra 3 PLUS is left unused for long period, the installed batteries should
be removed from the unit.
Output & Runtime
Accurately specifying light output (lumens) and runtime is complicated for LED flashlights.
Installed batteries and operating temperature are the main factors affecting the light
output and runtime. Lumapower cannot guarantee its products can reach the specification
under the using condition of users.
