Battery Replacement

Pull battery cover latch with Fenix logo that is located between the switches to open the tail cap.
Insert the battery/batteries in accordance with the polarity marks.
Replace the tail cap.

Frequency Sensing

As the user’s step frequency increases or decreases, the brightness will gradually increase or decrease accordingly.

Charging

Uncover the left anti-dust cap and plug the USB Type-C side of the charging cable into the charging port of the lamp; when charging is complete, replace the anti-dust cap to ensure waterproof and dustproof ability.
In charging process, four indicators flash: below 20%, one constant-on and three flash: 20% - 50%, two constant-on and two flash: 50% - 80%, three constant-on and one flashes: 80% - 95%, four constant-on: charging complete.
When charging, the Low of either of the modes can be used.
The normal charging time is 3 hours from depletion to full charging.
Note:

The headlamp has a charging protection function. It will automatically end charging and indicating when the detected temperature is higher than 65°C.
Recharge a stored headlamp every four months to maintain optimal battery performance.

Battery Level Indication

With the light switched off, single click either of the switches to check the battery level and indicator(s) will last for 3 s.

Four blue lights on: 100% - 80%

Three blue lights on: 80% - 60%

Low-voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the headlamp is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this happens in Low output, the battery level indicator blinks to remind you to timely recharge or replace the battery.

Note: This only works with Fenix ARB-LP1900 battery.

Intelligent Overheat Protection

The lamp will accumulate a lot of heat when used at relatively high output levels for extended periods. When the lamp reaches a temperature of 65°C or above, the lamp will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 65°C, it will then allow the user to reselection the modes.

Headband Assembly

1. The headband is factory assembled by default.

2. Adjust the headband by sliding the buckle to the required length.

Usage and Maintenance

Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the lamp and will void the warranty.
Fenix recommends using an excellent quality Fenix battery.
If the lamp will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the lamp could be damaged by electrolyte leakage. Lock the lamp or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp's performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons:
- A: The battery needs replacing. Solution: Replace the battery (Ensure the battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).
- B: The contact point or contact of the battery or headlamp is dirty. Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
- If the above methods don't work, please contact the distributor.
