How do I activate the braking light function?
The braking light function is part of the 'Sense Mode' and is automatically activated when the light detects deceleration.
Can I use the light while it is charging?
Typically, rechargeable lights can be used while charging, but it is always recommended to check the specific product manual for confirmation and to avoid potential strain on the battery.
What does 'Parking Mode' do?
Parking Mode automatically turns the light to standby mode when no motion is detected for a period, conserving battery life when the bicycle is parked.
How do I switch between the different lighting modes?
Modes are typically cycled through by short presses of the power button. Refer to the product manual for specific button sequences for each mode.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on.
Ensure the light is fully charged. Connect it to a power source using the USB Type-C cable and check the charging indicator. If fully charged and still unresponsive, contact customer support.
Sense Mode not functioning correctly.
Verify that the ambient light sensor is not obstructed and that the motion sensor has been properly activated. Ensure the light has sufficient battery charge.
Braking light not activating.
Ensure the light is in a mode that supports the braking function (typically part of Sense Mode) and that the light is securely mounted to detect deceleration accurately. Check for any firmware updates if applicable.
Light is not charging.
Try using a different USB Type-C cable and a different USB power source. Clean the USB-C port on the light and the cable connector to ensure a good connection.
Light flashes erratically or turns off unexpectedly.
This may indicate a low battery. Charge the light fully. If the issue persists with a full charge, there may be an internal fault; contact customer support.
