Information
The Fenix PD40R V3.0 Rechargeable Flashlight is an upgrade that checks all the improvements customers have been asking for. The newly designed patented mechanical switch has raised grips for easy one-handed operation. Simply rotate the dial to access its modes—great for gloved hands. There is a hard stop before you progress to the flashing modes so you’ll always know when you are at the brightest setting without accidentally activating SOS or Strobe. Able to blast a maximum of 3000 lumens now 23% farther, this flashlight is USB Type-C rechargeable. NO TAIL SWITCH allows for the tail to stand the light and an IP68 rating makes it durable in any conditions. Choose the Fenix PD40R V3.0 Flashlight when you need maximum brightness with a simple-to-use interface.

Warning: Do not mix batteries of different brands, sizes, capacities or types. Doing so may cause damage to the flashlight or to the batteries being used.
*21700 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only using quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion; but cell damage or short circuiting are considered user induced damage and are not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability.
Battery Replacement
Unscrew the light body and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the light body back on.
Charging
First switch off the light and plug the USB A socket of the charging cable into an appropriate A/C powered USB plug/outlet, then connect the USB Type-C socket of the charging cable to the light.
The indicator will display red while charging, and will turn to green when fully charged.
Once charging is completed, be sure to unplug the charging cable and close the anti-dust cover.
Only low and med outputs are available while charging.
Note:
The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 rechargeable battery is approximately 3 hours from depleted to fully charged.
Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain optimum performance of the battery.
Battery level indication
When the light is switched on, the battery level indicator besides the charging port will light up to display the battery status, the indicator will stay on for 3 seconds before it goes off.
Green light on: saturated 100% - 85%
Green light flashes: sufficient 85% - 50%
Red light on: poor 50% - 25%
Red light flashes: critical 25% - 1%
Note: This feature only works with the Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery and the Fenix ARB-L21-4000P battery.
Intelligent Overheat Protection
The lamp will accumulate a lot of heat when used at relatively high output levels for extended periods. When the lamp reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the lamp will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, it will then allow the user to select these modes again.
Low-voltage Warning
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the lamp is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this brightness level is reached (Low output), the battery level indicator blinks to remind you to recharge or replace the battery.
Note: This feature only works with the Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery and the Fenix ARB-L21-4000P battery.
Usage and Maintenance
Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
Fully charge the light in time to ensure normal use next time.
Fenix recommends using an excellent quality battery.
If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion.
Unscrew the tail cap half a turn or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp's performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons: A: Poor battery level. Solution: Replace or recharge the battery (Ensure the battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications). B: The threads, PCB board contact or other contacts are dirty. Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
If the above methods don't work, please contact your authorized distributor.
