9.SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

!!Storeandtransportbothpartsofthelightseparated–unscrewthehead
fromthebodyofthelight.Otherwisethelightcouldbeaccedentallyswitched
oninthebagwhichcouldcausethefire!!

!!Don’tputswitchedonlightontheflammablesurfaces.Thereistheriskof
thefirepožáru!!

WARNING!Thelightwhichsiswitchedoffleftonthesunshinecouldreachvery
hightemperatures(over60°C).Thelightcanbedestroyedortheheatsurfaceof
thelightcouldburntheuser.
ThereforeNEVERleavethelightonthedirectsunshineiftheweather
temperatureishigh(forexampleinthecar).Thereistheriskofthedamageof
thelight,burnoftheuserorfire!
Donotputtheactivatedlamponflamablesurfacstopreventriskoffire.
3.BEFORETHEFIRSTUSE
Toachieveanidealinitialcapacitysetupofthelight,theaccumulatorsarestored
chargedataprox.50%oftheircapacity.Beforethefirstuseitisimportantto
chargethebatterytofullcapacity.


4.CHARGING

‐ Unscrewtheheadfromthebody‐turn it clockwise (looking same way the light
shines).
‐Plugthecharger’sjackinthesocketinsidethelamp’sbody.
‐ Plugthechargerinthewallsocket.Thecharger’sLEDlightisred,whilethe
batteryisbeingcharged.OnceLEDturnsgreentheaccumulatorischargedon
approx.80%.Youcankeepitonthechargerlongertoreachthemaximum
capacity.)Whenthelightiscompletelydischargedthechargingcyclelasts4
hoursinSHORTversion,8hoursinLONGversionand10hoursinSTRONG
version).
‐Unplugthechargerfromthewallandafterthatjackfromthelamp’sbody.Save
theenergy.

Alwaysuseonlytheoriginalbatterychargerthatisincludedinthepackage!

Importantnotice
Li‐ionbatteriesdon’thaveamemoryeffect.That’soneofthebasic
characteristics.Werecommendtochargetheaccumulatorafteranyusage.

!!Youhavetoavoidanysituationwhenyoukeepfullydischargedaccumulator
inafrostyenvironment.Forexample–Youputadischargedaccumulatorina
trunkofacarafterdiveandkeepitthereforthewholenight.Itwilllead
almostabsolutelytoirreversibledamageoftheaccumulator.Thetimeof
performanceofthelightmightbesignificantlyreducedbythisonlyonestep.
Thebadmaintananceisnotcoveredbythewarrantyandtheclaimsof
damagedaccumulatorbecauseofthebadmaintenancewillberefused!!


5.MANUALFORFUNCTIONSANDUSAGE

Screwtheheadclockwisetofixitintothelamp’sbody.Thelampisnowready
foruse.Toswitchthelighton/offandchangethemodeturnthemagneticring
onthehead.
Turnthemagneticringinanydirectionandthelightison(300lumensmode1).
Anotherturninclockwisedirectionswichthelightintothestrongermode(1500
lumens).You'llgetfullpowerafterthirdturnintheclockwisedirection.Turning
counterclockwisewillleadtothereverseprocedure.


‐Mode1=10%oftotaloutput(300lumens)
‐Mode2=50%oftotaloutput(1500lumens)
‐Mode3=100%oftotaloutput(3000lumens)
‐Switchoff

!!Whenchangingmodesorswitchingthelightonpleaserespectthestop
positionsofthemangeticringwhenthelightisusedand/orstored.Thisisvery
important.Ifthemagneticringisnotintherightstoppositionthenthelight
canbeaccidentallyswitchedonwhensrewingtheheadtothebodyorthelight
willnotworkright!!

HeatControl:
Therearetwofavoursoftheheatcontrol:atthesametimeitprotectsthelamp
againstoverheatingandtheuseragainstpossibleconsequencesoffulloutput
outsidethewater.Afterachievingthecriticaltemperaturethelamp
automaticallyswitchesintoMode1(10%offulloutput).Switchingbetween
modesispossibleagainafterthetemperaturedecreasesonthesafelevel.

TIP:WhentheoverheatedlampisleftinMode1outsidewater,coolingdownis
veryslow.Immersionoflampintowatermakescoolingimmediate.

!!Thispowerfullightisnotintendedforuseoutsideofthewaterinhigherpower
levels(mode2and3)!!Onlyontheweakestlevel(mode1)thelightcanbeused
atthesurface.Butifthesurroundingtemperatureisveryhighthenwe
recommendnottousethelightatthesurfaceatall!!
!!Thewarrantydoesn’tcovertheclaimsofburntLEDbecauseofuseatthe
surfaceinmodes2and3!!
Useinwater:
!!Warning‐neverturntheheadofthelampclockwise (looking same way the
light shines). Unscrewingtheheadcompletelyleadstofloodinganddamaging
thelamp!Switchthemodesofthelamponlybyturningtheringonthehead!!

6.MAINTENANCE,STORAGE,TRANSPORTANDMANIPULATION
BEFORE/AFTERDIVE

Threadsando‐ringsarenecessarytobecheckedandlubricatedafterevery
dismountingandeveryrecharging.Ifthreadsoro‐ringsaredirty,theyhavetobe
cleanedandthenlubricated.
!Notice:Ifthreadsando‐ringsarenotlubricated,youriskwaterpenetration
anditwouldbedifficulttoswitchon/offthelightunderhydrostaticpressure!

!!Theclaimsofthefloodedlightbecauseofthebadmaintenancearenot
coveredbythewarranty!!

!!Removetheheadfromthebody/canisterfortransport!!
Thereistheriskofaccidentalswitchon.!Preventtheriskoffire!

Removetheheadfromthebody/canisterforthestorage!
!!Screwedheadreadytouseisinstandbymodeandtakesthesmallpower
fromtheaccumulator.Ifyoustorethelightcompletedtheaccumulatorloses
itscapacityandcanbedestroyed!!

Incaseoflongerstoragethelighthastobechargedtothefullcapacity.Don’t
storethelightdischarged!Ifstoredlongerthan1monththecapacitycould
significantlydecreaseortheaccumulatorcouldbedestroyed.Every3monthsit
isnecessarytodischargeandthenfullychargethelight!

Optimalstoragetemperatureis15‐18°C(59–65°F).Highertemperatures
accelerateself‐dischargeandearlierrechargeisneeded.

!!Warning!Westronglyrecommendscrewingtheheadtothebody/canister
justbeforetheusage.Unscrewtheheadimmediatelyaftertheusageofthe
lighttosavethepower.Onlythenyouwillhavetherestcapacityofthe
accumulatoravailableforyournextdive.Otherwisetheaccumulatorisbeing
dischargedwhenthelightisin“standbymode”!!

Aftereachuseinsaltwateritisnecessarytowashthelightwiththefresh
water.
