in an explosible environment.

Changing the rechargeable battery

Open the rear box by releasing the 2 clips (5).
ATTENTION : never dismantle the gasket ring
inside the cover. Take care to keep it in place
(clean with water and a cotton bud). Lubricate
the ring with a silicone based grease. If changing
batteries in a damp environment, dry the inside
of the box after use.
Lengthy storage : remove batteries and leave
box open.
Changing a bulb
Warning, never open the front case in an
explosible environment. Loosen the safety screw
without removing it completely (3 turns) (5).
Open the headpiece using the left hand to
unscrew the bezel (6). Remove it completely.
Should it be jammed, try a penetrating fl uid, or
warm the front cover with a hair drier.
Standard bulb : unscrew the burned out bulb and
screw in the new one tightening securely.
Mini-bulb or LED module :
Pull old lamp out and insert the new one,
taking care not to bend the 2 metal contacts.
Check operation by switching on. If the LED
module does not light up, pull it out, reverse the
contacts (turn it 180°) and re-install. Close the
headpiece.
Replacement bulbs : do not clip old bulbs into
the replacement bulb holder (risk of confusion
later).
Darkening bulb = loss of brightness before fi nal
failure of bulb.
To close the headpiece :
Clean the seal thoroughly, dry the case and
grease the seal and the threads with a silicon-
based grease,
- ensure that the refl ector/glass/bezel assembly
is correctly oriented (7),

- screw up the bezel with the right hand until the
mark on the bezel is situated between the two
marks on the case (8 and 9),
- turn the safety screw until moderately tight
(3 turns) (10).
Notes
If the lamp is accidentally left on in a rucsac,
the heat generated by the bulb may damage
the refl ector (take care to lock the switch).
Simultaneous use of both bulbs is not possible :
this would only increase power drain without
giving extra light.
This lamp is ideal for wet environment, but
don't misunderstand this is not a diving light. If
either of the two compartments takes in water
(perished or dirty gasket, poor fi tting), open
both boxes, take out batteries and bulbs, rinse in
clean water, then dry very slowly.
Should the lamp not work
Check the state of charge of the battery.
Check that the bulb is not blown, or that the
connections are not oxidised. Move the small
bulb in and out of place several times, with the
switch in the "bulb on" position. Check that the
battery contacts and those of its case are not
corroded (clean them if necessary). Work the
switch several times.
If your lamp still does not work, call your service
centre.
Dismantling of the lamp may only be carried out
by the manufacturer for any problem other than
changing a bulb or an LED module.
Cleaning
Wash the lamp, with the compartments closed,
in clean water. Use soap for the elastics. Do not
rub with an abrasive product especially on the
glass. Do not wash with a high pressure hose.

50° c.
Do not expose to rain or snow : shock hazard
may result. Do not charge in a car in the sun :
risk of serious overheating. Never charge a
frozen battery.
Do not operate a charger if it has received a
sharp blow or been dropped. if it is damaged
(the wiring cable for example), do not
disassemble : it must only be repaired in Petzl
workshops, since special tools are necessary.
To reduce risk of damage to electric plug
and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger. An extension cord should
not be used. To reduce risk of electric shock,
unplug charger from outlet before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning.
Operating instructions
This rechargeable battery must be charged
before fi rst use. Put the rechargeable battery in
the charger and then only plug. Don't hesitate to
recharge a partially discharged battery or one
in store for more than a month. The battery will
not be destroyed if left on charge for too long.
Light output from the petzl rechargeable battery
remains relatively constant almost to the point
of total discharge, but beware of the sudden
cut-off at the end.
