Which action ensures the Emergency Flashlight will operate during an emergency?

• A. Present and secure
• B. Press and hold the switch for 2 seconds
• C. Press TEST button to ensure GREEN light illuminates
• D. Wipe the lens

Answer: (C)

Testing emergency equipment relies on a built-in self-check that confirms the unit is ready to use. Pressing the TEST button triggers this self-test and illuminates a GREEN light if everything is functioning properly. That green indication means the battery, circuitry, and LED are all okay, so the flashlight will operate when needed in an emergency. Simply presenting and securing it or turning the light on by holding its switch doesn’t verify the internal readiness, and wiping the lens doesn’t affect operation.
