After confirming the activation of the timer, the flashlight will work in
the previously selected mode for a specified period of time. The next
click turns the flashlight off and resets the timer.
To return to permanent on, unscrew the tailcap to 1/4 while the flash-
light is off, press the button, release it and tighten the tailcap.
Automemorizing. After switching off the last used mode is memorized
for quick access at next switching on.
Lock-out function. Unscrew the tailcap to 1/4 for protection from
accidental switching on. Multicolor indication will be turned off.
Safe high brightness modes. Turbo modes give maximum brightness
until the temperature of the flashlight and discharge current of the
battery exceed critical values.
Safe Soft-Start System allows increasing runtimes, getting lon-
ger battery life and protecting the battery from overdischarge or
overheating.
Active real-time temperature control. When the temperature
becomes close to +58 °C, the brightness decreases, which allows
avoiding flashlight and battery overheating, as well as LED degrada-
tion. Under good cooling conditions, the flashlight delivers light without
stepping down.
BATTERY LEVEL AND FLASHLIGHT TEMPERATURE
INDICATION
The flashlight has a multicolor temperature, battery level and state
indication (indication by the color LED in the button), as well as a low
battery level indication by light (indication by the main LED of the
flashlight). The flashlight indication in ON state includes a multicolor
battery level and temperature indication, and low battery level indica-
tion by light. When the flashlight is in OFF state, there is a multicolor
state indication.
Battery level is more than 25%. The color LED in the button flashes
green once every 4 seconds.
Low battery level. When the battery level becomes less than approx-
imately 25%, the color LED in the button indicates the warning level by
flashing orange 1 time every 2 seconds. With a further drop in voltage,
the brightness begins to decrease in steps to ensure the safety of
the battery and the user. If the brightness of the mode (except Firefly
modes and Main1) drops below approximately 25% from the nominal
value, the main LED flashes 2 times. When the battery level becomes
critical, less than approximately 10%, the color LED flashes red 1 time
every second.
High temperature. When the temperature of the flashlight increases
to the warning level, the color LED in the button flashes orange 3 times
every 2 seconds. At critical level the LED flashes red 3 times every
second. The brightness begins to decrease to a safe level.
Multicolor state indication. Short flashes of the LED in the button
every 4 seconds show the battery level when the flashlight is in OFF
state (until the battery level becomes lower than the critical one). The
indication also helps to find the flashlight in the dark.

ENG USER MANUAL ELF C1
Switching multicolor indication on/off. Multicolor indication has
2 operating modes:
1. The indication is switched off in Firefly modes (disabled after 10 sec-
onds of operation) and in OFF state (by default).
2. The indication is switched on in any state.
To change the operating mode, unscrew the tailcap to 1/4 while the
flashlight is off, press the button and keeping the button pressed, tight-
en and unscrew the tailcap again. The settings will be memorized even
when the battery is changed. Ultra-low current consumption allows
multicolor indication to work for a maximum period of time.
Warnings
For effective operation of the flashlight, we recommend branded
18350 Li-Ion batteries or 16340 Li-Ion batteries without PCB (unpro-
tected) or with PCB which guarantees 3A discharge current.
The flashlight can get hot in Turbo mode quickly and discharge the
battery with high current. Don't leave it without your attention as very
bright light might heat objects and cause fire.
For storage or transportation of the flashlight in a pocket or a bag
it is necessary to activate the lock-out function to ensure protec-
tion from accidental switching on.
It is forbidden to charge the battery inside the flashlight when the
ambient temperature is below 0 °C.
1. Always follow the instructions from this manual and recommenda-
tions on battery usage.
2. Apply only the recommended power sources.
3. Do not reverse battery polarity.
4. Do not modify or recast the flashlight and its components as it will
deprive you of the warranty.
5. Do not allow water or any other liquid to leak into the flashlight.
6. Do not aim a switched-on flashlight at people's or animals' eyes — it
can cause temporary blindness.
7. Do not allow children to use the flashlight without your assistance.
The producer will not be liable for any harm done to the user if it
was caused by improper use of the product.
