Question

Do you know how to insert batteries in a torch?​

Answer 1

Step 1

Turn the tail cap counterclockwise until it pulls away from the flashlight. If the flashlight already contains a battery, it may fall out into your hand.

Step 2

Insert a new battery so the top or pointed end faces the light. The Solitaire requires one AAA battery; other versions may require larger or more batteries, as noted on the flashlight packaging. Note the width and length of the battery chamber as clues to what the flashlight requires if you do not have the packaging, or visit the Maglite website.

Step 3

Replace the tail cap by turning it clockwise until it stops moving.

Step 4

Rotate the top portion of the Maglite flashlight left and right until the shining light offers the desired amount of focus. Some Maglite models including those with rechargeable batteries offer a push-button switch to turn the light on. Rotate the heads on such models to focus the beam, as with other Maglites.
