Cobra 6 500 X-pand
English

Congratulations on your choice of LEDX headlamp
The lamp has been developed with a focus on bright light, low weight and se-
veral different fields of use.
!
Be careful; the light is very powerful, do not look straight into the lamp when
turning on the light. Due to the high power it also emanates much warmth.
Please make sure that air can circulate freely around the lamp, this is extra
important when used at the highest setting.
The lamp provides a broad light close to the body and a very long distance
light. It can be controlled in three power levels which give around 6%, 40%
and 100%. In the programming mode you can choice by two more levels, 2%
and 80%.
The lamp is fitted with heat sinks that keep the temperature low inside the
lamp case. This contributes to a stronger light since the light output diminishes
with a rise in temperature.
The head light can be complemented with a small backup battery that attaches
to the back of the headgear. It provides light for about 80 minutes on the lo-
west effect.
The headgear has a dual headband and two elastics in the neck. The bottom
is placed extra low so the main scaffold should sit comfortably on the head,
even with a cap. All bands are regulated with Velcro, making it easier to balan-
ce the right fit.
The batteries are Li-Ion or Li-pole, have no memory and must not be dischar-
ged before charging. At delivery, the batteries are only partly charged, charge
therefore the batteries before using the lamp for the first time. Be sure to use
the correct charger for each battery.
You can connect the Cobra 6 500 to an external 12 V pover source by using
some of our protections cables
Disconnect the battery connector when not in use.!

the battery.

Headgear
The headgear is controlled by Velcro and can easily be adjusted."It also comes
with multiple fitting points for the cable from the lamp case and its plug, and for
the cable from the main battery that is threaded through a loop before it con-
nects to the lamp case. At the back of the headgear there is a Dual Lock™
Velcro to attach the backup battery.
Put on the headgear like this:!
Release the lower headband and elastic on the back of the headgear."Let the
upper elastic attach about half way on the
Velcro.
Put on the headgear, pull it down as far as
possible or until it sits comfortably. Adjust the
length of the upper band until comfortable.
Adjust the lower band so it fits tightly in the
neck.
Then adjust the clasp at the top band.
!
At-
tach the cables to the main battery and the backup battery according to the
pictures.
The lamp case
!
Connect the battery to the lamp case. Be careful to fit the white markings on
the contacts to each other; if they are incorrectly fitted and forced together the
contact pins might break.
Right Wrong
The switch is placed at the bottom of the lamp case. Light the lamp by
pressing the switch until the lamp turns on (1-3s). The lamp starts on the lo-
west effect, default at 6%, use short clicks to up the effect. Turn it off by
pressing the switch until it turns off.
The lamp has a heat protection; if the lamp becomes warmer than 75 ° C it
slowly decreases the amount of light in small steps. When the temperature
drops it automatically increases the light again. If you use the lamp indoors it
will adjust the light after the lamp temperature. For outdoor use, the light
needs to be in motion to give 100%. There is an emergency built-in, if the lamp
has been covered or for any other reason reached 95 ° C, the lamp turns off
completely.
The lamp case can easily be removed from the headgear by lightly press the
top part of the attachment plate and simultaneously pull the lamp upwards.
The lamp is water resistant, but should not be used underwater.!
!
Batteries
The main battery is a Li-Ion battery; these are characterized by a high capaci-
ty and low self-discharge."It is carried conveniently in a rear harness, waist or
in a pocket."It is water resistant but should not be immersed in water."At delive-
ry, the battery is partly charged, it must therefore be charged before using the
lamp."Make sure you use the correct charger when charging the battery.!
The back up-battery (option) is a Li-Pol battery with high capacity and low
self-discharge."It is placed in the battery holder on the back of the head
gear."The back-up battery is completely waterproof. It gives light for about 80
min with 6 % power."The lamp recognizes that the back-up battery is connec-
ted and you cannot up the effect.!

Both batteries must be kept cool and dry, if you store the battery in the refri-
gerator, place it in an airtight box or plastic bag to prevent condensation on the
battery."If the battery will remain unused for a long time, eg"over the summer,
leave the battery half charged and in a cool place."If you do not use the battery
during a long time, you should charge it once a year to prevent that the voltage
drops to a dangerous level."Never leave the battery so that it is exposed to
extreme heat, such as"in a car on a hot summer day."This would quickly shor-
ten its life.!
!
Battery indicator!
A battery indicator in 4 steps is built into the lamp."To activate the battery indi-
cator; first turn on the lamp, then hold the switch for about 4 seconds."You will
receive a number of flashes that tell you how long you can use the light before
it's over, see table."Works only on the main battery, not on the back-up.
The times are approximates and are affected by battery condition and tempe-
rature. When the battery is almost depleted the lamp is automatically reduced
to the lowest power."Then there are about 60 minutes left on low power before
the battery is completely depleted."If you have drained the battery so much
that it goes down to the 6% level, you should charge the battery as soon as
possible after using the lamp.
Follow this advice you give your battery a long life.!
Charge the batteries with the included chargers."Be sure to use the correct
charger for each battery.
The main battery is charged with the larger charger and takes about 6-7 hours
to charge fully."Do not discharge the battery before recharging.

The backup battery is charged with the little charger and takes about 3 hours
to recharge."Do not discharge the battery before recharging.
The battery should be at room temperature when charging."The LED on the
charger lights red when charging and green when the battery is fully charged,
it then goes over to maintenance charging."Don´t leave the charger plugged in
when not necessary, but disconnect it as soon as you see that the battery is
charged."When you unplug the charger from the socket also separate the
charger and the battery, otherwise the charger will slowly discharge the batte-
ry.!
