Using the Tern Nitelite Rear is easy. First, find the rear - facing bar ends of your Captain's Chair or Clubhouse carrier. Make sure the inner diameter of the tube is between 15.2 - 20.3 mm, then securely attach the lights. To turn on the lights, press the button. You can cycle through the 3 modes - constant, pulse, and flash - by pressing the button again. When it's time to recharge, simply connect the lights to a USB port. As for maintenance, since the lights have an IPX4 water - resistance rating, they can handle light rain and splashes. But avoid submerging them in water. Keep the lights clean by wiping them with a soft cloth. Check the battery level indicator regularly so you know when it's time to recharge. And always make sure the lights are securely attached before each ride to ensure your safety on the road.
