SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
A. Read this manual carefully before using the divelamp.
B. When you are diving in situations where your life can depend on having sufficient light
(for instance in caves or on wrecks), make sure you always take a back-up light with you.
C. Prior to airtravel, disconnect the cablelamp from the batterypack, so as to prevent overheating should the
lamp be switched on by accidental impact or mishandling. Also discharge the batterypack.
D. To prevent a short-circuit, it is essential to plug the battery tank with the supplied tankplug(s).
E. Always use the supplied charger.
F. Charging the lamp: - always in a dry and well ventilated place
- ambiant temperature between 0 and 30 C
- never by open fire
G. When changing the light head, always disconnect the light from the battery tank first.
H. Never shine the light directly into eyes, this can cause eye damage.
HOW TO USE THE DIVE LIGHT:
Charging the battery pack
The charger is suitable for mains between 100-240 Vac. We deliver the battery pack empty, so it is important to charge the empty
pack completely with a full charge cycle.
Make sure that the connector is clean and dry. Securely plug the charge connector into the battery tank.
The charger is fitted with a Delta-V charge controller. The charge controller switches over to pulse charging as soon as the battery
reaches its full power. Please wait until the small light (LED) on the charger lights green continuously before you disconnect the
charger from the battery pack.
Charging: The LED indication lights red continuously.
Battery pack full / trickle charge: the LED indication lights green continuously.
Warning:
Always use the charger that is delivered with the dive light!!! The use of other chargers can damage the battery cells
inside!!!
Connection the cable light onto the battery tank
The connection of the cable light to the battery pack is done by placing the connector in the water seal connector seat on the battery
pack. The connection is made with a little inward push and a turn to the right. Disconnection is done by doing the same sequence in
reverse.
Make sure that the connectors are completely clean and dry. When necessary, clean the O-ring and use a little bit of silicone
grease to produce a better water tight seal.
Warning:
Never disconnect the the light from the battery pack under water!!!! This will damage the connector inside the battery
pack!!!!!
Switching the cable light on and off
The light is switched on by sliding the locking bolt on the switch backwards and then turning the switch to the righ
To lock the light, slide the locking bolt back and rotate the switch to the left until it clicks (locks) into the locked position;
The LED display on the back of the lamp housing tells you the following:
LED green: 100% - 50% remain capacity
LED orange: 50% - 20% remain capacity
LED red: 20% - 10% remain capacity
LED red blinking: 10% - 0% remain capacity left: the light will automatically drop down to 50% capacity
(10 minutes are left before the light switches off)
Note: These values are guiding values only and depend very much on water temperatures and the type of battery tank!
The values shown above were measured at a water temperature of 20°Celsius. In colder water (for instance 10°Celsius
or less) the LED light will go from green to orange in just a few minutes.
Remark:
If you don't use the torch for a long time we advise you to disconnect the cable light from the battery pack to prevent discharging of
the battery pack.
Never store the battery pack uncharged for a long period. If the battery pack is not used for a long period, we advise you
first to charge the battery pack completely and then every three months to discharge and recharge the battery pack
completely. When the battery has been stored uncharged for a long period, it can lose its charge entirely. This can cause
irreparable damage to the battery cells.

45° (position 1) =
dim position, or 90° (position 2) = 100% capacity.
the light will
turn off
Deep discharge protection
When the battery is almost empty (0,9 V per cel) the deep discharge protection will switch off the light.
This prevents damage of the battery cells.
Connection of the battery tank PR1209 / PR1213 onto the tank or BCD
First connect the tank plate onto the bottle or jacket belt.
You can use two methods:
1. Connect the tank plate with stainless steel belts on the bottle
2. Connect the tank plate on the BCD belt by guiding the belt through the slots in the plate (see figure).
Now you can connect the battery pack onto the plate by depressing the locating button, pushing the
battery pack down onto the locating part then, onto te securing port and release the locating button
Signal option:
Beacon flash (one flash per second): turn the switch (within 1 sec.) from position 2 to pos. 1 and back to pos. 2.
Strobe flash (four flashes per second): turn the switch for a second time (within 1 sec.) from position 2 to pos. 1
and back to pos. 2.
S.O.S. flash: turn the switch for a third time (within 1 sec.) from position 2 to pos. 1 and back to pos. 2.
The S.O.S. flash should only to be used in case of an emergency. In this position it flashes S.O.S. in Morse
code, 3 x short – 3 x long – 3 x short.
To exit any signal option: turn off the dive light or turn the switch to position 1.
Removal of the light head
Unscrew the light head (anti clockwise). Before reassembly clean the O-rings, or replace the O-rings when damaged
or deformed and apply a thin coating of silicone grease. Reposition the light head and turn it clockwise until it is firmly
in place.
Connection of the battery tank FX1204 / FX1209 onto the cylinder
Slide the bracket of the battery tank over the belt of the stabilizing jacket. Close the belt securely.
General:
- After each dive, soak the lamp in clean fresh water for a few minutes. (Note: not the contacts in the cable port on
the batterytank!!)
- Rinse the dive light under running water to remove all traces of sand and salt.
- Avoid physical impact.
- Avoid overheating and direct exposure to sunlight.
-To make sure the light doesn’t overheat or cause burn damage to objects in its immediate vicinity, it is advisable to
use it only under water.
