LED HEADLAMP
Operating and Maintenance Instructions
ENGLISH:
Battery Charging – See Figure 1
Supplied with headlamp: Self-contained lithium rechargeable
battery, micro-USB charging cable.
Princeton Tec suggests using a charger with output of 5V,
1A. This charger will fully charge the battery pack in 3 to
4 hours. Slower charging will be achieved with a charger
rated with lower amperage. Some computer USB ports
may not have sufficient output to charge this or any USB
rechargeable product. Under normal usage, the supplied
lithium ion battery pack will last for approximately 1,000
charge / discharge cycles.
• Red battery charge level LEDs indicate battery state. Red
LEDs pulse when charging is in progress.
• Charging has completed when both LEDs are illuminated.
• Low Battery Indication: When the battery level reaches
25% the light will blink once indicating the charge is low.
Once battery level drops below 20% the light will blink
twice and drop to the lowest setting in the current mode.
Dial functionality will be disabled to provide the maximum
amount of time before the battery is completely drained
and the light shuts off.

WARNING
Do not disassemble; no user serviceable parts.
General Care and Warnings
• Properly charge the battery to maximize its lifespan. Lithium
ion batteries do not suffer from a "memory effect," and for
battery longevity it is preferable to charge more frequently
if possible, rather than to fully deplete the battery's charge.
• To avoid damaging your lighting system, use only chargers
that meet the approved specifications.
• Axis Rechargeable is not submersible. Submerging in water
will damage the lighting system and void the warranty.
• To keep your lighting system looking new, use a mild soap
and water solution with a rag or sponge to periodically wipe
off dirt.
Switch Operation – See Figure 1
• A single press activates red mode at 70% output.
• Double press activates white spot mode at 70% output.
• Triple press activates white flood mode at 70% output.
• In any mode, the dial is used for dimming.
- Clockwise dims to 10% output. Once minimum is
achieved, further rotation will not do anything.
- Counter clockwise brightens to 100% output. Once
maximum is achieved, further rotation will not do anything.
- Counter clockwise from flood mode activates dual-
beam mode.
• A single press occurring more than two seconds after the
previous button press will turn the light off.
• Lock out Mode to prevent accidental activation: Can only
be activated during OFF mode. To enter Lockout mode,
press and hold button for three seconds. To indicate
success, two red LEDs will flash according to battery
voltage chart (see figure 2).
Troubleshooting
If the Axis Rechargeable fails to light:
• Check the charge state of battery by either 1. Locking out the
light by holding down the power button, or 2. Plugging light
into power source and observing battery charge level LEDs.
• To reset headlamp if there are any functional errors, press
and hold the button for 20 seconds.

Runtime is defined as the duration of time from the initial light output value—defined as 30 seconds after the point
the device is first turned on—using fresh batteries, until the light output reaches 10% of the initial value.
Reserve time is the duration of time from 10% of initial light output value down to 0.25 lux
