OPERATION

The rechargeable lithium battery within the flashlight automatically recharges while the flashlight is nested in its receptacle within the cargo lamp housing and the ignition switch is in the ON or START positions. The flashlight has a pair of electrical contacts that mate with contacts within the cargo lamp housing that provide a source of recharging current regardless of whether the cargo lamp is illuminated. The red Light Emitting Diode (LED) unit on the side of the flashlight behind the ON-OFF push button illuminates when the charge of the flashlight battery is becoming depleted.

The flashlight is removed from the cargo lamp housing by pushing it momentarily upward at the depression marked PUSH on the flashlight, then releasing it and swinging it downward far enough to disengage two slots on the right end of the flashlight from two tabs within the cargo lamp housing. When the flashlight is removed from its receptacle in the cargo lamp housing, it can be used as an auxiliary light source in emergencies or other situations. The flashlight is turned ON or OFF by momentarily depressing and releasing the ON-OFF push button on the side of the flashlight housing. Reverse the removal procedure to restore the flashlight to the cargo lamp housing and to recharge the flashlight battery.
