Read all safety information and operating instructions before using Luci to avoid injury or harm. For a downloadable version of the Luci User and Product Guides, visit www.mpowerd.com/user-
manual. IMPORTANT SAFETY AND HANDLING INFORMATION Read the following warning before you or your child play with Luci. Failing to do so may cause injury. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage or injury, do not attempt to remove Lucis shell;
please refer all non-routine servicing questions to MPOWERD. No user-serviceable parts are contained inside. General Read all safety and operating instructions before operating Luci. Retain the safety and operating instructions for future reference. Follow all operating and use instructions. Do not attempt to service Luci yourself. Refer all non-routine servicing to MPOWERD. Keeping Luci Within Acceptable Temperatures Operate and store Luci in a place where the temperature is between -10 and 50 C (15 to 122 F). Low or high-temperature conditions might temporarily shorten battery life or cause Luci to temporarily stop working properly. Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when using Luci, as condensation may form on or within Luci. Dont leave Luci on your car dashboard because temperatures on the dashboard can exceed this range. When youre using Luci or charging the battery, it is normal for Luci to get warm. The exterior of Luci functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside. 5 Use and Maintenance Never:
Use Luci as a flotation device, although Luci will float and is waterproof, it is not designed to support weight while in the water. This can damage the light and compromise its safe operation. Hang anything from the handles on Luci. The handles are designed to hold the weight of Luci only, not additional weighted items and will break under extreme pressure. Stare into the lights for extended periods of time, which can cause permanent damage to your eyes. Always:
Be aware of the structure that you hang Luci from to ensure a secure connection. Always make sure it is a safe, stable location that will hold Luci with variations in the weather. Ensure that you are close to the Luci when connecting and changing settings on Luci. The Bluetooth antenna will reach up to 30m (100 ft) but that can differ based on environmental elements like trees, weather, and buildings. Periodically examine Luci for potential hazards such as cracked, damaged or otherwise broken parts. In the event of such damage, do not use Luci until it can be replaced or repaired. Battery Warning Lithium Polymer batteries are extremely hazardous and liable to cause serious injuries to persons or property. The user accepts liability for the use of a Lithium Polymer battery. As the manufacturer and the distributor cannot ensure the battery is used correctly
(charging, discharging, storage, etc.), they cannot be held liable for damages caused to persons or property. In the event of battery leakage, avoid the liquid coming into contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact with the skin, wash copiously with soap and water. In case of contact with the eyes, rinse copiously with cold water and consult a doctor. If you notice a suspicious smell or noise or observe smoke around the charger, disconnect it immediately. Non-compliance with the instructions below could result in gas being given off, fire, electric shock or an explosion. 6 Charging Never charge a leaky battery or one that has been damaged. Do not charge other devices with the Luci near inflammable materials or on an inflammable surface (carpet, wooden flooring, wooden furniture, etc.) or conducting surface. Do not cover your product or its charger while the battery is charging. Recharge the battery at a temperature of between -10 and 50 C (15 to 122 F). Use and storage Do not use Luci if its hard case around the battery and solar panel have been broken and the batterys plastic cover has been cracked or compromised in any way. Do not expose the battery to excessive physical shock. Do not expose Luci and its battery to heat or dispose of a fire. Do not put the battery in a microwave oven or in a pressurized container. Do not attempt to dismantle, pierce, distort or cut the battery and do not attempt to repair the battery. Do not place any heavy objects on Luci. Do not clean Luci with a solvent, denatured alcohol or other inflammable solvents. Avoid direct contact with the electrolyte contained within the battery. The electrolyte and electrolysis vapors are harmful to health. Do not subject Luci and its battery to large temperature variations. Do not place your Luci near a source of heat.
