User’s Guide
TAKE NOTICE: BY INSTALLING OR OTHERWISE USING THE EASY-ON WIRELESS TAIL
LIGHTS YOU AGREE TO FOLLOW THE BELOW DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY AND BE BOUND
BY THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET OUT BELOW. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THIS
LIMITATION, THEN YOU ARE NOT AUTHORISED TO INSTALL OR USE THE EASY-ON
WIRELESS TAIL LIGHTS, WHICH YOU SHOULD RETURN UN-USED FOR A FULL REFUND.
Introduction
The Easy-On Wireless Tail Lights are magnetically attached tail lights designed for
temporary or emergency use. The Tail Lights are operated by a wireless Remote control
unit - a connection to the vehicle’s wiring harness is not required.
Your system includes two Tail Lights and a Remote control. Each Tail Light will be
labeled as either a ‘left side’ or ‘right side’ light. Look for this when you are installing the
Tail Lights – the ‘left side’ light must be attached to the left side of your vehicle, when
looking at your vehicle from behind it.
The Remote control is pictured to the right. There are seven buttons on the Remote
control:
1. The stop-sign shaped button is the
brake button, and turns on both Tail
Lights to full brightness.
2. The left arrow button flashes the left
Tail Light only.
3. The right arrow button flashes the
right Tail Light only.
4. The double-red triangle button
flashes both Tail Lights (hazard-light
mode).
5. The light bulb button causes both
Tail Lights to be on at low brightness
(running-light mode)
6. The button with the square icon and
radiating curves is the ‘training’
button.
7. The button with the green circle is the
on/off button.
The Remote uses radio waves to wirelessly send commands to each Tail Light. Each
Remote has its own ‘serial number’ so that other Remotes in the vicinity cannot interfere
with your Tail Lights. Each time you install the batteries in the Tail Lights, you must
March 01, 2006 Easy-On Wireless Tail Lights Page 2
train the Tail Lights to respond to your Remote only. This simple procedure is described
on page 2 of this document, in the section ‘Battery Replacement – Tail Light’.
The Remote control will have a range of up to 100 feet. However, actual range depends
on many factors. You will want to test the Tail Lights in your application each time to
ensure the Remote can communicate with the Tail Lights.
Batteries
Battery Types
The Remote transmitter uses two standard “AA” batteries. Alkaline batteries are
recommended for use in this unit. These batteries are not included with the system.
Each Tail Light requires two standard “D” batteries. High-quality alkaline batteries are
recommended for use in the Tail Lights. These batteries are not included with the system.
Note! With high-quality alkaline batteries in the Tail Light, you can expect about 20
hours of continuous use in hazard mode. Actual battery life will be dependent on many
factors though.
Warning! Do not mix battery types in a Tail Light or the Remote Transmitter. This can
result in damage to the unit or injury hazard to people.
Battery Replacement – Remote Transmitter
Pop open the battery compartment cover on the back side of the transmitter. Remove and
safely dispose of the old batteries. Insert new batteries, being careful to insert them with
proper orientation. Snap the battery compartment cover back into place.
Battery Replacement - Tail Light
Remove the screws holding the rear plate to the Tail Light enclosure. Remove and safely
dispose of the old batteries. Insert the new batteries, being careful to insert them with
proper orientation. Screw the enclosure back together.
Note! When you install the batteries in a Tail Light you must ‘retrain’ the Tail Light to
the Remote as follows:
1. Ensure there are no other Easy-On Wireless Tail Lights in the vicinity.
2. Install the batteries in both Tail Lights.
3. Turn on the Remote.
4. Make sure the Remote is in close proximity to both lights (i.e. a few feet).
Depress the training button for 1 to 2 seconds. The two ‘turn’ lights on the
Remote will flash quickly indicating the Remote is in ‘training’ mode.
5. When both Tail Lights are also flashing quickly (about 2 times a second), then the
Tail Lights have been trained to the Remote.
6. Press the ‘training’ button on the Remote for 1 to 2 seconds to end the training
mode.

Using the Tail Lights
Installation
WARNING! BE SURE YOUR VEHICLE IS SAFELY AWAY FROM OTHER
TRAFFIC OR HAZARDS BEFORE INSTALLING OR TESTING THE TAIL LIGHTS!
Each Tail Light is labeled either ‘left’ or ‘right’. Mount the light on the appropriate side
of the vehicle.
The Tail Lights have a magnetic mount feature. You must mount the lights on a ‘magnet
friendly’ metal surface. Clean the surface (i.e. remove dirt, ice, etc) in order to ensure
solid adherence the vehicle. The surface should be a perpendicular as possible to the road
surface, to ensure that the Tail Lights are pointing straight backward.
When you have mounted a Tail Light, test its strength by pushing with medium force on
the Tail Light from its sides and bottom. The Tail Light should remain in place. If it does
not, move the Tail Light to another location.
WARNING! While the magnetic mount should hold the Tail Lights in place under
normal use, certain conditions may cause the Tail Lights to dislodge. YOU MUST
TETHER EACH TAIL LIGHT TO YOUR VEHICLE TO PREVENT IT FROM
FALLING OFF YOUR VEHICLE IF IT BECOMES DISLODGED.
Testing
Once you have installed the Tail Lights, you must test them to be sure they are operating
properly. To do this:
1. Turn on the Remote by holding the ‘power’ button for a couple of seconds.
When the Remote turns on, its three indicator lights will turn on momentarily.
This will assure you that those lights are working properly. After that, the green
‘power’ light will remain lit while the Remote is on.
2. If you have changed or re-installed the batteries in either Tail Light, you must
re-train the Tail Lights. Refer to the Batteries section on page 2 for how to do
this.
3. Standing behind the vehicle and facing it, press the ‘stop’ button on the Remote.
It may take up to 15 seconds for the Tail Lights to respond this first time. This
long delay only happens when the Tail Lights are ‘waking up’ from a period of
not being used. Once the Tail Lights have woken up, they will respond
immediately to new commands from the Remote.
4. Press the ‘stop’ button again and the Tail Lights should turn off. Press the ‘left
turn’ button. The left turn light on the Remote should flash, as should the left-
side Tail Light. Press the ‘left turn’ button again to turn off the lights. Now
repeat this with the ‘right turn’ button and confirm that the right-side Tail Light
is flashing.
5. Repeat the above test with the ‘hazard’ and ‘running lights’ buttons.

6. With the Tail Lights idle, mount the Remote in its position in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle. Press the ‘hazard’ button. Leaving the Remote in
the passenger compartment, confirm that the Tail Lights are flashing.
7. If the system passes all the above tests, it is ready for use.
8. If the Tail Lights are not working, you may have to re-locate their position or
the position of the Remote and test again
9. If the Tail Lights still fail any tests, DO NOT USE THE TAIL LIGHTS! CALL
THE SUPPORT NUMBER LISTED BELOW FOR FURTHER
INSTRUCTIONS.
Operation
Turn the Remote on. Press the turn, stop, or hazard lights buttons as required to put the
Tail Lights in that state. Press a button again to end that state.
There is no indication on the Remote of the state of the batteries in each Tail Light. When
you are using the Tail Lights, you should periodically stop at a safe location, put the Tail
Lights in hazard mode, and check that both Tail Lights are operating properly. If a Tail
Light is not responding, see the Troubleshooting section below.
When you are done using the Tail Lights, press and hold the ‘power’ button on the
Remote until the green ‘power’ light turns off. Remove the Tail Lights and store them as
noted below.
DO NOT SUBMERSE THE TAIL LIGHTS IN WATER! If you think the lights may
become submersed in water, remove the Tail Lights beforehand. If the Tail Lights
become submersed, immediately open the enclosure and remove the batteries.
Submersing a Tail Light in water will void its warranty.
Storage
Store the units in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
Problem: a Tail Light does not respond to a command.
Resolution:
• Ensure you have fresh batteries in the Tail Light
• Disconnect the batteries, reinstall them, then go through the training cycle
Problem: the Remote does not power on or does not stay powered on
