To prolong battery life, charge the headlamp regularly, even if not in frequent use. Avoid fully discharging the battery for extended periods. Store the headlamp with a partial charge (around 50%) if it will not be used for a long time.
6.3 Storage
Store the headlamp in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the provided storage box for protection when not in use.
7. Troubleshooting
- Light does not turn on:
- Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the headlamp to a power source using the USB cable.
- Check if the USB port cap is securely closed after charging. - Light is dim:
- The battery level might be low. Recharge the headlamp fully.
- Ensure you are not in a low-energy dimming mode. Cycle through modes to select a brighter setting. - Headlamp gets warm during use:
- It is normal for the headlamp to generate some heat, especially when operating at high brightness settings. This is due to the powerful LED output. If it becomes excessively hot, consider switching to a lower brightness mode. - Water or dust ingress:
- Ensure the USB port cap is always securely fastened when not charging to maintain the IPX6 waterproof and dustproof rating.
8. Safety Information
- Do not look directly into the LED light when it is on, as it can cause temporary vision impairment.
- Keep the headlamp out of reach of children.
- Do not disassemble or modify the headlamp. This may void the warranty and pose safety risks.
- Dispose of the battery according to local regulations. Do not expose the battery to fire or extreme temperatures.
- Ensure the USB port cap is always tightly closed when using the headlamp in wet or dusty environments to maintain its IPX6 rating.
