Warning: 16340 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only use quality batteries with circuit protection to reduce the potential for combustion or explosion; cell damage or short circuiting are potential risks the user assumes. High mode can't be entered when using the CR123A battery.

Battery Replacement

Unscrew the cap to insert the battery in accordance with the polarity marks, then screw the cap back on.

Charging

• Uncover the cap and plug the USB Type-C side of the charging cable into the charging port of the lamp.
• The indicator will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged.
• The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L16-700P 16340 rechargeable Li-ion battery is about 1.5 hours.
• When charging, the headlamp can be normally used on Low, Red, Red flash, but charging time will be prolonged.
• When charging is complete, replace the anti-dust cap to ensure waterproof and dustproof ability.
• Recharge a stored headlamp every four months to maintain optimal Li-ion battery performance.
• Charging protection: when charging, if the lamp reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the lamp will automatically exit charging status and enter sleeping mode.

Battery Level Indication

With the lamp switched off, single click the switch to check the battery status; the indicator will last for 3 seconds.

• Green light on: saturated 100% - 80%
• Green light flashes: sufficient 80% - 50%
• Red light on: poor 50% - 20%
• Red light flashes: critical 20% - 0%

This only works with Fenix ARB-L16-700P battery.

Intelligent Overheat Protection

The lamp will accumulate a lot of heat when used at Turbo mode for extended periods. When the lamp reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the lamp will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, it will then allow the user for the resolution of Turbo mode.

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 mode is reached. When this happens in Low mode, the battery level indicator blinks to remind you to timely recharge or replace the battery. This only works with Fenix ARB-L16-700P battery.

Headband Assembly

• The headband is factory assembled by default.
• The headlamp bracket is made of reinforced silicone material, which has good tear resistance and mechanical strength; it is resistant to low/high temperature, ultraviolet rays, acid and alkali corrosion; it is comfortable to the touch and will not cause corrosion allergy.
• If the headband is stained with sweat and mud, it can be washed directly.

Other Purpose

Detach the headlamp from the holder and it can be used as a work flashlight.

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.
