4. Operation

The headlamp is operated via a single button located on the top of the unit.

4.1 Powering On/Off and Switching Modes

• First Press: Activates the Main LED at 100% power (65 lumens). This mode provides a strong, long-range beam.
• Second Press: Switches to Main LED at 25% power (16 lumens). This mode offers extended battery life with sufficient illumination for close-range tasks.
• Third Press: Activates the Auxiliary LEDs (12 lumens). This mode provides a wider, softer light for peripheral vision and close-up work.
• Fourth Press: Turns the headlamp OFF.

The headlamp is also dimmable, allowing for fine-tuning of light output within each mode by holding the button (specific dimming instructions may vary slightly; refer to practical use).

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

Wipe the headlamp with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the battery compartment is dry before closing.

5.2 Battery Replacement

When the light output becomes dim or the headlamp stops functioning, replace the AA battery following the instructions in Section 3.1. Always use a fresh, high-quality AA battery.

5.3 Storage

Store the headlamp in a cool, dry place. If storing for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent potential leakage and damage to the device.

6. Troubleshooting

• Headlamp not turning on:
  • Check if the battery is inserted correctly with the correct polarity.
  • Ensure the battery compartment cover is fully closed.
  • Replace the battery with a new one.
• Difficulty opening the battery compartment:
  • Ensure you are not forcing it. Look for a small latch or a designated sliding area. Some compartments require a firm but gentle slide or a slight prying motion with a fingernail or small, flat tool at a specific point. Refer to any diagrams on the product packaging if available.
• Dim light output:
  • The battery may be low. Replace it with a fresh AA battery.
  • Ensure the headlamp is not in a lower power mode (e.g., Main LED 25% or Auxiliary LEDs). Cycle through the modes to check.
