3. الإعداد

3.1 تركيب البطارية

The Sofirn C8L flashlight requires one 18650 or 21700 Lithium Ion battery. The included battery is typically pre-installed. To install or replace the battery:

3. قم بربط غطاء الذيل مرة أخرى بشكل آمن.

3.2 الشحن الأولي

Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge the battery. The C8L features a convenient USB-C charging port.

1. Locate the USB-C charging port on the side of the flashlight, usually covered by a rubber flap.
2. Open the rubber flap to expose the port.
3. Connect the provided USB-C charging cable to the flashlight and plug the other end into a compatible USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, power bank, computer USB port).
4. The indicator light on the side switch will show the charging status: Red indicates charging, Green indicates fully charged.
5. A full charge typically takes approximately 3 hours at a maximum charging rate of 2.5A.
6. بمجرد اكتمال الشحن، افصل الكابل وأغلق الغطاء المطاطي بشكل آمن للحفاظ على مقاومة الماء.

4.2 Brightness Modes and Groups

The C8L offers multiple brightness levels and three distinct mode groups:

• وضع الإضاءة: Cycles through Eco, Low, Medium, High, Turbo.
• الوضع التكتيكي: Offers Medium and Turbo for quick access to powerful illumination.
• فلاش الوضع: Includes Strobe, SOS, and Beacon for signaling or emergency use.

The flashlight features mode memory, meaning it will turn on in the last used brightness level (except for Strobe, SOS, and Beacon modes).

• وامض باللون الأخضر: قوة 40-70٪
• اللون الأحمر الثابت: قوة 10-40٪
• وامض أحمر: Power <10% (recharge immediately)

5. الصيانة

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Sofirn C8L flashlight.

• تنظيف: Wipe the flashlight body with a clean, soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp قماش. تجنب المنظفات الكاشطة.
• تشحيم: قم بوضع شحم السيليكون بشكل دوري على الحلقات المطاطية وأسنان البراغي للحفاظ على مقاومة الماء وسلاسة التشغيل.
• العناية بالبطارية: Recharge the battery regularly, especially if the flashlight will not be used for an extended period. Store the flashlight with a partially charged battery (around 50%) if storing for several months.
• مقاومة الماء: The C8L is rated IPX8 water resistant, meaning it can be submerged up to 2 meters. Ensure all seals (like the USB-C port cover and tail cap) are properly closed and tightened before exposing to water. This rating is for incidental submersion, not for diving.
• متانة: Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum, the C8L is designed to resist scratches, abrasion, and corrosion. Avoid dropping the flashlight from significant heights or subjecting it to extreme impacts.

6. استكشاف الأخطاء وإصلاحها

If you encounter issues with your Sofirn C8L flashlight, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• المصباح لا يعمل:
  • تأكد من إدخال البطارية بشكل صحيح مع توجيه الطرف الموجب (+) نحو الرأس.
  • تأكد من شحن البطارية. أعد شحنها إذا لزم الأمر.
  • Tighten the tail cap and head assembly securely. A loose connection can prevent operation.
  • Clean the battery contacts and flashlight contacts with a clean cloth.
• مخرجات الضوء خافتة أو متقطعة:
  • قد تكون البطارية ضعيفة. أعد شحنها.
  • Ensure the battery is fully inserted and contacts are clean.
  • Check for any debris in the head or tail cap threads.
• Flashlight gets hot during use:
  • High brightness modes (especially Turbo) generate significant heat. This is normal. The C8L features Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) technology to automatically adjust output to prevent overheating.
  • If the flashlight becomes uncomfortably hot, reduce the brightness level.
• USB-C charging not working:
  • Ensure the USB-C cable is fully inserted into both the flashlight and the power source.
  • جرّب كابل USB-C أو محول طاقة مختلفًا.
  • Check if the charging port is free of debris.
