12 Volt DC Charging/Recharging  
(ONE ON EACH SIDE)  
The DC recharging method will NOT recharge the  
unit as effectively as the 120 volt AC method. This  
method is recommended only when it is necessary,  
since frequent use of the 12 volt DC recharging  
procedure may shorten the battery system’s life.  
1. Insert the gold-tipped end plug of the 12 Volt DC  
Charging/Power Adapter plug into the vehicle’s  
12 volt DC accessory outlet.  
CHARGING THE BATTERY  
The unit is delivered in a partially charged state. It must be fully charged prior to first  
use by either the 120 volt AC method (preferred) or the 12 volt DC method.  
After initial charging, the VEC192 can be simultaneously recharged (using the 12  
Volt DC method only) and operated. When recharging and operating the Spotlight  
at the same time, single beam operation is recommended.  
When using the 12 volt DC recharging method, make sure the power source can  
supply minimum 15 amperes of current if the Spotlight is to be operated while the  
battery is being charged.  
After charging, disconnect the Adapter from the external power source, then  
disconnect the Adapter from the AC Recharge Port or 12 Volt DC Charging/Power  
Port.  
2. Insert the silver-tipped end plug into the 12 Volt DC Charging/Power Port on the  
back of the handle of the unit.  
3. Charging time using this method is approximately 5 to 6 hours.  
4. When charging is complete, remove the power cord immediately and return it to  
the storage compartment.  
The Spotlight CAN be used while recharging using the 12 Volt DC  
method. If doing so, single beam operation is recommended.  
Notes: When using a vehicles 12 volt DC accessory outlet as a charging/power  
source, be aware that some vehicles require the ignition be turned on to  
power the accessory outlet.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
Using the Spotlight  
The twin beam, quartz halogen Spotlight is operated by the two switches located in  
the compartment on the side of the unit (see the illustration on page 2). The top  
ON/OFF Switch controls the left beam; the bottom ON/OFF Switch controls the right  
beam.  
CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
All batteries lose charge with time, especially when they are warm. Recharge the unit  
every two months when not in frequent use, preferably using the 120 volt AC method.  
Never submerge the unit in water. If the unit gets dirty, gently clean the outer surfaces of  
the spotlight unit with a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and detergent.  
Periodically inspect the condition of adapters, connectors and wires. Contact Technical  
Support toll-free at (800) 544-6986 to replace any components that have become  
worn or broken.  
Replacement Parts  
The quartz halogen bulb and sealed lead acid battery are available through Vector  
Products, Inc.. A comparable (12 volt H7 100 watt) bulb may be substituted. These  
can also be purchased from popular automotive parts suppliers nationwide. Contact  
Technical Support Department for replacement parts (including replacement adapters  
and cords) and any additional information that you may need. They may be reached  
toll free at (800) 544-6986.  
Using the 3-LED Auxiliary Light  
The 3-LED Auxiliary Light is operated by the LED Auxiliary Light ON/OFF Pushbutton  
located on the top of the grip handle.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of shocks or burns and avoid damage to the unit,  
make sure all power switches are in the OFF position, all adapters are  
unplugged and the unit has been allowed to cool down before  
performing any maintenance/parts replacement.  
Bulb Replacement  
To replace either or both H7 type 12 volt 100 watt bulbs, you will need a small  
Phillips type screwdriver and a replacement bulb (or bulbs). During installation,  
avoid touching the glass part of the bulb. Bulb life may be shortened by installing a  
bulb with dirt or fingerprints on it. The bulb can be wiped clean with a cloth  
moistened with alcohol.  
Using the 12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet  
The 12 volt DC accessory outlet powers any DC appliance that does not exceed  
5 amps. Flip up the accessory outlet cover and insert the appliance’s DC plug. Close  
the cover after use.  
1. Disconnect the unit from any charging adapters.  
2. Push the rubber bezel forward toward the front of the spotlight to reveal eight  
small Phillips screws in the retaining ring.  
3. Using the screwdriver, remove (counterclockwise) the screws. Set them aside.  
4. Lift off the retaining ring, glass lens and rubber “O” ring and set them aside.  
5. Carefully remove the reflector and bulb assembly.  
6. Disconnect the wires from the defective bulb.  
7. Unsnap the hairpin retaining wires from the reflector’s flange.  
8. Lift out the bulb.  
Using the Adjustable Workstand  
Set the hands-free adjustable workstand to the desired position; then turn the knobs  
on either side of the unit to lock in position.  
9. Insert the replacement bulb into the reflector’s flange.  
10. Put back and secure the hairpin retaining wires.  
11. Connect the wires to the bulb.  
12. Place the reflector in position in the body of the spotlight.  
13. Replace the rubber “O” ring in the groove around the perimeter of the reflector.  
14. Replace glass and retaining ring so the screw holes are aligned.  
15. Secure retaining ring with the eight screws.  
16. Replace rubber bezel.  
17. Operate switch to ensure proper operation of Spotlight.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace bulbs with 12 volt H7 100  
watt only.  
1. The 120 volt AC charging/recharging method will not work while the Spotlight  
is in use.  
2. If the unit does not operate, the battery may be completely discharged. Charge  
the unit using the AC adapter following the directions in the manual.  
Battery Replacement  
1. Release the battery compartment cover locks on either side of the unit and  
remove the cover.  
2. Pull out the battery.  
3. If you suspect a bulb is blown, check the bulb filament. If filament is coiled and  
unbroken, the bulb is not blown. If filament is blown, replace bulb.  
4. If you suspect the main fuse is blown, check it and, if necessary, replace with a  
new 20 amp spade fuse.  
3. Disconnect the terminals and replace the battery with the same type listed in the  
Specifications section of this manual.  
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and engage the locks.
