Operation
Initialization; voltage display:
When you connect the light to the battery, the software runs a self-test, during which all five status LEDs
come on briefly. The battery voltage is then shown via the blue and green LEDs, as follows:
 The blue LED blinks once for each volt; and then
 the green LED blinks once for each 1/10 of a volt.
To see the battery voltage again, unplug the light from the battery and then plug it in again.
For example, if the blue LED blinks seven times and the green LED
then blinks five times, this means that the measured voltage under
load is 7.5 V. This display helps you to assess the actual level of the
battery prior to use.
Guidelines in this regard:
More than 8.0 V: the battery is fully charged. 7.1 to 7.9 V: the battery
needs charging or is old. 6.5 to 7 V: the battery is not ready for use.
Switching on/ Changing levels:
Press the power switch once to turn the light on; two blue LEDs will glow, indicating the 22W dimming
level. Press the button rapidly to cycle through other power levels. Refer to the chart on page 40 for the
exact meaning of the five (RGB) monitor LEDs, as well as instructions for programming options additional
to the factory-set 3-step mode.
Luminous performance:
The maximum lighting output can only be achieved with enough airflow to cool the lamp. High ambient
temperature and low airflow will signal the controller to reduce power to the LEDs, thus reducing their
brightness, to avoid overheating the LEDs and other electronics. The actual reduction is indicated by the
status LEDs: e.g., after a period of low airflow conditions, 4 of the 5 blue status LEDs will be lit, indicating
that the power has been reduced from 45W to 34W in order to protect the unit from heat damage.

Center-LED:
The Center-LED will only work in a special mode, otherwise just the
outer 6 LEDs will run. How to switch on the Center-LED: see page 40.
Switching the lamp off:
To switch off the lamp, hold the button down longer.
SOS function:
To activate the SOS function, hold the button down for three seconds and then release it. If you don't
press the button again, the lamp will continue to emit the international SOS signal until the battery is
completely discharged. To deactivate the SOS function, press the button again. You can then use the
lamp in a normal fashion.
Note: Use the SOS signal ONLY in an emergency. Thanks to the light's high luminance, the signal is
visible for miles around and will continue flashing for hours if not shut off. Improper use of the SOS
signal is punishable by law.
Discharged battery capacity:
When you shut off the lamp, the discharged battery capacity is shown via flashing of the blue LED
and then the green LED. This information can only be displayed once as it is deleted when you
unplug the battery.
The blue LED blinks once for each Ah (ampere hour); and then

the green LED blinks once for each 1/10 of an Ah.

For example, if the blue LED blinks four times and then the green LED blinks six times, this means
that 4.6 Ah were discharged from the battery.
