PETZL DUO LED 5 E68 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 3

(EN) ENGLISH
The DUO headlamps conform to the requirements
of the 89/336/CEE directive on electromagnetic
compatibility
The DUO lamps are ideal for use in wet
environments, but are not designed for prolonged
submersion (i.e. diving).
DUO LED 5
Waterproof with dual light source : focusable
halogen bulb and an unregulated 5 LED module.
DUO LED 8
Waterproof with dual light source : focusable
halogen bulb and a regulated 8 LED module.
Switching on, switching off, selecting
and focusing
Move the switch up to select the powerful halogen
beam - high energy consumption (2).
Move the switch down to select the LEDs - low
energy consumption (3).
The zoom knob allows you to adjust the halogen
beam as desired : turn it down for a narrow
spotlight,
or up for a wider beam (4).
The DUO allows you to optimize the power and
duration of the lighting according to your needs.
Simultaneous use of both light sources is not
possible.
DUO LED 5
The 5 LED light source is unregulated, offering one
very economical lighting level. The light gradually
diminishes in brightness as the batteries are
depleted.
DUO LED 8
The 8 LED module is electronically regulated,
maintaining a constant lighting level until the
batteries are nearly spent.
It also offers 3 different lighting levels :
- OPTIMUM : best balance between power and light
duration.
- MAXIMUM : maximum power.
- ECONOMICAL : long light duration.
You choose the lighting level best suited to your
activity.
Move the switch down (on).
The light always starts at the OPTIMUM level.
To select the next lighting level (MAXIMUM), turn
the switch off, then immediately back on.
Consecutive off-on movements of the switch will
cycle the light through levels 2 and 3, then back
to level 1 again.
If the movement of the switch is not quick enough,
the lamp will light up at level 1.
When the batteries are nearly spent, the light
automatically switches to Reserve Power Mode,
providing low-level lighting for an extended period
of time.
Warning
The DUO LED 8 may interfere with the functioning
of an avalanche beacon. This can happen only when
the 8 LED module is turned on, and the lamp is near
a beacon in receive (search) mode.
In case of interference (indicated by static noise
from the beacon), move the beacon away from the
lamp until the noise stops, or switch off the 8 LED
module and switch on the halogen bulb.

Notice DUOLED 5-8 E69-E71 / ref. : E60600-H (041203)
The locking system
Remember to lock the switch during transportation
and storage by pressing the red button (1A).
To unlock the switch, press on the opposite end
of the red button (1B). If your headlamp is left
switched on in a pack (or other closed space), the
heat emitted by the halogen bulb can damage the
refl ector.
Batteries
To open the battery case, unlock the two clips (5).
Use alkaline batteries. Do not mix different brands
of batteries, or new batteries with used batteries.
Respect the polarity of the batteries when installing
them in the lamp. If this is not done, explosions
may result due to gaseous emissions from leaking
batteries.
WARNING : Defective or fully discharged batteries,
or water in the battery case can damage the
headlamp (oxidation of the contacts...).
The life of alkaline batteries is considerably reduced
in low temperatures. In cold environments or when
the batteries are low, the LEDs will give better light
than the halogen bulb.
WARNING : never remove the gasket from the
battery case lid. Take care to keep it clean, using
water and a cotton swab.
After each cleaning, lubricate
the gasket with silicone grease.
Precaution : for prolonged storage, remove the
batteries
and leave the battery case open.
Changing a bulb or
LED module
Open the head piece using your left hand to
unscrew the bezel (6) and remove it completely.
If the bezel is jammed, try a penetrating lubricant or
heat the bezel with a hair dryer.
Halogen bulb : unscrew the old bulb and screw the
new one in tightly.
LED module: pull the unit straight out (it's OK to
touch the LEDs). Install the new unit, being careful
not to bend the contacts or LEDs. Check the
alignment of the LEDs. Test the light by operating
the switch. If the module does not light, remove it
and re-install it
with the contacts reversed
(give it a half twist)
To close the head piece:
- position the refl ector, lens,
and bezel correctly over the head piece (7),
- using your right hand, screw the bezel onto the
head piece until the mark on the bezel is situated
between the two marks on the head piece (8 & 9).
In case of malfunction
Check the batteries and their polarities. If the
polarity is simply reversed in the battery case, the
halogen bulb will work but the LEDs will not. In this
case, remove and re-install the batteries according
to the polarity indicators shown on the case.
Test the lamp with a replacement bulb. Check for
corrosion on the contacts. In case of corrosion,
scrape the contacts lightly without damaging them.
Work the switch several times.
If your lamp still does not work contact PETZL.
Care
Water in the headpiece or battery case can cause a
malfunction. Whenever the lamp has been used or
opened in poor conditions (moisture, mud, dust...),
remove the batteries, bulb, and LEDs. Allow the
lamp to dry completely with the headpiece and
battery case open. Clean the seals with water and
lubricate them with silicone grease.
Cleaning
Wash the lamp using clean water, with the
headpiece and battery case closed. Use soap for
the elastic headband. Do not rub with an abrasive
product, especially on the lens. Do not wash with a
high pressure hose.
