Battery Status

• When Flare is OFF, press for 3 seconds the square $ \pi $ （pi）button.
• A yellow/green LED will begin to flash:
  • 5 yellow = full batteries
  • 4 yellow = good batteries
  • 3 yellow, 2 red = low batteries
  • 1 red = batteries depleted (time to change batteries)

Turning on Flares - Rapid Deployment System (RDS)

• Simply pull off case! （Rechargeable only） OR,
• Briefly tap either button.
• Yellow/Green LED will illuminate indicating that the flare is turning on.
• First flare takes approximately 3 seconds to turn on;
• The remaining flares will take approximately 1 sec to turn on.
• Wait until the flare begins flashing, then turn on the next flare.
• There are 16 LEDs on the SIDE of the flare and 4 LEDs on the TOP.

Disabling the Tilt Sensor

• To disable the tilt sensor, simply TAP the square $ \pi $ （pi）button while the flare is operating.

Changing Patterns

• Reverse Sequence: With flares on, momentarily tap both buttons simultaneously on any flare. This will reverse the sequence (stored in memory for next time).

Turning OFF the Flares

• To turn off a single flare: Press and hold the square pi button for 3 seconds.

Pairing Groups of Flares Together

• The Ice Cream Sandwich Flare uses radio communication to establish a "network" connecting individual flares.
• This is done automatically for you.

PAIRING:

• Turn on a flare. Wait until it flashes to turn on the next flare...
• The Pair mode will time-out in 5 minutes after the last flare is turned on, OR,
• You can end pair mode by holding both buttons on any flashing flare down for 3 seconds.
