1. MAGNETIC SWITCH
Attention: the light uses a magnetic switch, so your compass reading may be off when you hold it close
(within 5cm or 2”) to the black on/off switch.
2. CHARGE OF THE BATTERY
Only use the supplied Li-Ion charger to charge the battery. For best results, the battery should be
charged at room temperature.
3. MAINTENANCE OF BATTERY
It is not recommended to discharge the battery after each dive. Complete discharge after every use
may reduce life time of battery. We recommend the following service procedures:
• For storage remove battery from casing.
• Discharge and recharge the battery at least once every 6 months.
• Avoid deep discharge of the battery pack.
• Store battery with approximately a 30-60% partial charge in a dry and cool place.
• Charge fully before each dive.
• The storage of a fully discharged battery may cause permanent damage to the battery.
4. BATTERY PROTECTION CIRCUIT
The integrated protection circuit protects the battery from overload, overcharge and deep discharge.
5. CHARGE LEVEL INDICATOR
The green charge level indicator displays the available relative charge and the two
digit display shows the remaining run time at the actual power setting. The display
unit is 1 minute. While charging the 2 digit display shows the remaining charge time.
The unit is 10 minutes. The display is turned off when the battery is fully charged.
6. USE IN AIR
The video light can also be used outside water but at low power level only. If the light gets too hot, it
slowly and automatically reduces the power to avoid overheating.

7. HOW TO OPEN THE CASING
Remove excess water from the outside before opening. Point the light slightly upward while opening to
avoid water from entering the housing.
Friction of the O-ring seal (and therefore force needed to open the cap) increases over storage time.
After long and deep dives the friction might increase too. To avoid high friction, regularly grease the O-ring.
8. MAINTENANCE
After each use rinse well with fresh water.
CareshouldbetakentoavoidscratchingoftheO-ringseals.Keepsealscleanofsand,hair,clothbers
or similar materials at all times. O-rings of the battery screw cap should be regularly inspected and
cleaned. Occasionally apply small amounts of silicone grease for lubrication. If not treated, the O-ring
will fail to provide proper sealing causing the light to malfunction.
• Do not use sharp tools to remove the O-ring.
• Never use a battery which appears damaged.
• In case of a damaged lamp, contact your nearest KELDAN®dealer.
• Do not remove front glass cover (high operating voltage).
• O-rings need to be replaced by KELDAN®or an authorized dealer every 5 years.
9. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION
Battery and casing must be stored apart in a cool and dry place. Maintain battery pack according to our
recommendations. Separate battery pack from casing if traveling by air.
12. WARRANTY
The light carries a two-year warranty after purchase (proove of purchase date required). The warranty is
limited to material defects which occur when correctly handling the product. The warranty does not cover
the battery packs.
KELDAN®warranty coverage is void for defects as a result of improper use.
11. LIABILITY
KELDAN®declines all responsibility for damages arising from any improper use of the VIDEO 8X
15000lm CRI82 light or as incurred by a third person.
