Instructions for use Hartenberger High-Tech-UW-Lamp nano compact
BEFORE EACH USE
Before each use, the threads, sealing surfaces and O-ring must be checked for
integrity and cleanliness. (See Closing the housing, page 8). If the bulb has been
removed for transport, it should be refitted into the socket. Refit the halogen bulb
in the socket which may have been removed for transportation. Only release the
transport lock to the unlocked position immediately before use. (See page 12).
USING THE UNDERWATER LAMP
Warning !
When the lamp is turned on, direct the beam away from yourself and others.
Do not point the beam directly at others. If there is a defect on the lamp, the
front glass plate may be forced out of the front of the housing with
explosive force.
Warning !
Water inside the housing (especially sea water) can have drastic results
consequences after some a period if time. Therefore, during the use of the
lamp please check repeatedly, whether water has found its way inside. Do
this by holding the lamp on the slant pointing down, thus the ray of light
pointing away from the body. Then look at the front glass from the side.
If there is water inside the housing, bring the dive to an end by following the
diving rules and open the housing as soon as possible (see page 22).
TRANSPORT LOCK
Release the transport lock immediately before use.
To unlock the switch, push it from the transport lock position (lock) outwards
(unlock) the switch must physically click into the unlocked position.
MAGENTIC SWITCH / SWITCH UNIT
The electronic controls are activated by pushing the switch to the right (+) or to
the left (-). The signals are transmitted via magnetically sensitive hall sensors.
This feature avoids any mechanical connection through the lamp’s housing
reducing the risk of water ingress and general wear.
ACTIVATING THE ELECTRONICS / CELL PACK CAPACITY DISPLAY
If the switch is pushed to the left (-) for approx. 3 seconds, the electronics are
activated from the energy saving „sleep” mode. The LED display illuminates and
shows the charge status of the cell pack for approx 3 seconds.
One LED = 25%, two LED´s = 50%, three LED´s = 75%, four LED´s = 100%
To view the capacity display after the 3 seconds, Slide the switch one short push
to the left (-) again.
If the lamp is not used for a period of 10 hours, the electronics will automatically
return to the energy saving “sleep” mode.
BRIGHTNESS / DIMMER
The electronics allow the lamp to be used in 4 levels of brightness (50%, 75%,
100% and using over voltage; 125%).
Using the lamp at dimmed (lower) settings will save energy and extend the burn
time of the lamp with one charge.
If the switch is pushed for a short time (approx ½ second) to the right (+), the
lamp will turn on to the first brightness stage (50%).
Each subsequent push to the right (+) will increase the brightness 25%.
Each subsequent push to the left (-) will decrease the brightness 25%.
