How To Go From One Function Set To Another
Your Mag Charger® LED flashlight’s “standard” setting is Function Set #1. If you
want to keep that setting you don’t have to do anything. Function Set #1 will
always be in effect unless it is changed. If you want to choose a different
function set, follow these steps:
1. Unscrew the tail cap, backing it out of the barrel far enough that the flashlight
will not turn on. (Note: This may require the tailcap to be removed from the
barrel entirely).
2. Pause for 2 seconds.
3. Press the switch button
and keep holding it down.
4. While still holding down the
switch button, screw the tail
cap back in until it is tight.
5. Keep holding down the
switch button. Within about
4 seconds the flashlight
will start to blink.
6. The number of blinks indicates the new selected Function Set.
7. To choose a new Function Set, release the switch button after the
corresponding number of blinks (releasing after 1 blink chooses Function Set #1;
releasing after 2 blinks chooses Function Set #2; release after 3 blinks for Function
Set #3, and release after 4 blinks to choose Function Set #4.) Your choice of a
Function Set remains in effect until you change it by repeating the above
process. (See our Demo video at www.maglite.com)

NOTICE: To avoid deeply discharging the rechargeable NiMH battery,
always turn the flashlight off when the flashlight beam starts to dim. A dim
beam is an indication that the battery needs to be recharged.
Spot-to-Flood Beam
The quick focusing spot-to-flood beam operates with a simple quarter turn
of the flashlight head assembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How long can I leave the flashlight in the Charging Cradle (on
charge) without using?
A. Indefinitely.
Q. If dust occurs inside my reflector, how do I clean it without damage
to the reflector?
A. Do not touch reflector. Use a camel hair brush lightly or blow with a
compressed air duster as used on computers and electronics. Use the same
care that you would give a precision camera lens.
Q. How do I get a fingerprint off my reflector?
A. Use a camera lens cleaner and a lint-free cloth.

Your Flashlight’s Function Sets and the Functions
Within Each Set
The Mag Charger® LED flashlight includes powerful new electronics,
providing five different functions to choose from. Because not all
functions are equally important to all users, the Mag Charger® LED
offers an array of USER-CONFIGURABLE FUNCTION SETS that LET YOU
PERSONALIZE the settings for QUICKEST ACCESS to the FUNCTIONS
YOU USE MOST. The four available Function Sets are shown in the
below Function Sets Chart.
The five different functions are: – Full Power, Low Power, Strobe (flashes 12
times per second), Eco and Momentary On/Off (stays on only while the switch
button is held down). Not all of these functions are equally important to every
user. That is why these functions are organized into four different function sets
– so that you can personalize your flashlight to suit your needs, configuring it
for quickest access to the functions that best match your preference.
How To Choose A Function Within a Set - “Quick Click”
The available function sets, and the functions within each one, are shown in
the Function Sets Chart.
As it comes out of the package, your Mag Charger® LED flashlight is set to the
“Standard” function set (Function Set #1 in the chart). If you require only those
three functions (Full Power, Low Power and Eco), then you never have to
change it. You can select a function within that set by the “Quick Click”
method: Turn the flashlight on with one Quick Click and it is on at Full Power.
Turn it off, then turn it on with two Quick Clicks (about as fast as you would say
“Click Click”) and it turns on at – the Low Power function. Turn it off, then turn
it on with three Quick Clicks (about as fast as you would say “Click Click Click”)
and you have the Eco function.
Selecting a function within any of the other function sets works the same way
– starting with the flashlight off, invoke the desired function by applying 1, 2 or
3 “Quick Clicks”, as the chart shows. For example, if you are in Function Set #2
and you want to select the Strobe function, begin with the flashlight off, apply
three Quick Clicks, and your flashlight will strobe.
