Safe Use Warnings

• Do NOT place this light within the reach of children!
• Do NOT shine the light directly into the eyes of anyone!
• Do NOT shine flammable objects at close range, to avoid burning objects or causing danger due to high temperature!
• Do NOT use the light in inappropriate ways such as biting in the mouth, to avoid personal injury or life-threatening harm if the light or internal battery fails!
• This light will accumulate a lot of heat while working, resulting in a high temperature of the flashlight shell. Pay attention to safe use to avoid scalding.
• Turn off and lock the light or remove the battery to prevent accidental activation when the light is placed in a closed and flammable environment such as pockets and backpacks!
• The LED of this flashlight is not replaceable; so the whole light should be replaced when the LED reaches the end of its life.

Battery Specifications

• Fenix ARB-L21 Series (21700, 3.6V): Recommended
• Fenix ARB-L18 Series (18650, 3.6V): Usable (with ALF-18 battery holder)
• Rechargeable Battery, Li-ion (16340 or 18650, 3.6V): Banned
• Rechargeable Battery, LiFePO4 (16340 or 18650, 3.2V): Banned

21700 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion; cell damage or short circuiting are potential risks the user assumes.

Battery Replacement

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

Charging

• Uncover the anti-dust cap and plug the USB Type-C side of the charging cable into the charging port of the lamp.
• The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L21-5000 is about 4 hours with the lamp switched off.
• The indicator on the battery case will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged.
• 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.
• When charging, the Med output level of General mode can be used. The headlamp will not automatically power on after full charging.

Charging indication only works with a Fenix ARB-L21-5000 battery.

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% - 85%
• Green light flashes: sufficient 85% - 50%
• Red light on: poor 50% - 25%
• Red light flashes: critical 25% - 1%

Note: This only works with a Fenix ARB-L21-5000 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, it 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 reselect the modes.

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 mode, the battery level indicator blinks to remind you to recharge or replace the battery. Note: this only works with a Fenix ARB-L21-5000 battery.

Headband Assembly

The headband is factory assembled by default. 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.
• Loosen the cap or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
• Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp's performance: A) The battery needs replacing — replace the battery. B) The contact point or contact of the battery or headlamp is dirty — clean with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol. If the above methods don't work, contact the distributor.
