Having trouble focusing the flashlight

The head of the flashlight consists of two parts – the Rapid Focus carriage which tapers off into a tube, and the cylindrical part with the reflector lens. In anticlockwise direction, unscrew the cylinder from the Rapid Focus carriage. Make sure to never touch the LED! Further on, remove the Rapid Focus carriage from the light downward and clean all parts from the inside with a dry or a damp cloth. You can treat the O-ring with silicon-free grease. After you are done, close the head of the light. Pull up the Rapid Focus carriage and screw it back together with the cylindrical part. Pay attention though – in all models that have a Focus Lock function, you need to be careful when pulling up the carriage. Make sure that the grooves on the inside of the carriage slide exactly along the tracks which are actually intended for that particular purpose.

If your LED lenser flashlight is still not working even after you’ve changed or charged the batteries, check if the date when you purchased the flashlight is less than 24 months. If it is, contact the retailer where you got it from so that they can check if this problem is covered by the flashlight’s warranty.
