04 / Safety

Read before you ride.

These warnings apply to every Cygolite lighting system. Please review them before your first ride and share them with anyone else who uses your light.

01

Riding safely

  • Cycling during night and day is an inherently dangerous activity, but can be enjoyed when proper safety measures are taken.
  • Exercise caution at all times and adhere strictly to traffic laws.
  • This light was designed as a visual aid, not a device to prevent collision with other vehicles.
  • Cygolite does not accept liability for injuries sustained from product usage.
  • This light is not a replacement or substitute for CPSC approved reflectors. Never remove your bicycle's original reflectors.
  • Always wear safety gear such as a helmet. Carrying a flashlight is recommended.

02

Flashing modes and brightness

  • Only use flashing modes during daytime.
  • State laws regarding flashing bicycle lights may vary among states. Use the flashing modes in accordance with local, state, and federal laws.
  • Due to the intensity of this light, do not look directly at the light and do not leave it unattended.

03

Heat and handling

  • The light may become hot during use. Provide adequate airflow to the light and use caution when handling.
  • Do not carry or store the light when it is hot or shortly after use.
  • Never disassemble, modify, or substitute any parts of this light.
  • Keep the system away from combustible materials.
  • Do not operate or submerge under water.
  • Always verify that all parts are properly secured. Do not use if there is any damage, wear, or missing parts.

04

Charging

  • Charge the lighting system with an approved 5V charger only. Using any other charger may result in damage or injury.
  • The charger is for indoor use only.
  • Always handle connectors by the plug, not the cable itself.
  • Unplug the light from the charger after a full charge or if the light is not in use.
  • Do not leave the light to charge overnight or unattended.
