Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the RECHARGEABLE LIGHTING SYSTEM Model HL-NC200. This Sealed-
lead-acid Rechargeable Battery powered lighting system can be used continuously by recharging the bat-
tery from home AC Power outlet. Before initial operation, read this manual thoroughly and familiarize
yourself with the function of this product. Reserve this manual for your future reference.

Note before use
This lighting system can not be lighted or will not serve usual running time due to self discharge at initial
use or after it is not used for a prolonged period. Be sure to recharge it before use. Overdischarging the
battery, e.g., continuous light on until power completely runs off, will effect the battery function. Turn off
the light and recharge the battery when beam turns dim.
