RIDING AT NIGHT
While a Lumina lighting system will improve your view, control
and enjoyment of night riding, please remember that cycling
at night is an inherently dangerous activity. In addition to using
your lighting system properly and riding with extreme caution,
NiteRider urges you to:
• Never ride alone.
• Always let someone know where you are going.
• Wear a helmet and reective clothing.
• Carry an auxiliary light and emergency supplies.
• Make sure the headlamp & mounting bracket is
securely fastened.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
LOCKING THE HEADLAMP FOR TRANSIT
It is important to lock the headlamp and protect the switch
from being pressed while it is in transit. The headlamp can be
easily turned on if placed in something like a backpack, duel
bag or suitcase. The headlamp gets hot while in operation. To
prevent potential damage from high heat or even re, it is very
important to put the headlamp in lock mode and protect the
switch from being pressed.
NiteRider will not be held responsible for damages to person
or property resulting from a failure to follow the ‘lock’ mode
instructions.
PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT
Properly charge your battery to maximize its lifespan. (See the
“Battery Charging and Care” section for detailed information)
The Lumina will perform in wet weather conditions, but
submerging it in water will damage the system.
