Testing
To test the EDF1 press the Test key for more than one second. The LEDs will flash in
sequence, finishing with the LEDs at the four quadrants flashing to indicate a pass. If the
battery requires replacing, the sequence will terminate with the top two LEDs flashing. It
is recommended that testing is carried out no more than once per month.
Battery Life
It is recommended that the battery is replaced prior to the battery expiry date printed on
the side of the battery.
The following battery life estimates are based on the recommend test interval.
In Economy mode, the battery will last for greater than six hours. In Bright mode the
battery life will be approximately halved and in Ultra mode the lifetime is further reduced
to one third of the Economy mode. By carrying an additional battery unit with your EDF1
you ensure your visual signal is maintained over a longer period of time.
Please note that any additional testing or demonstrations of the product will affect the battery life and
could impact the performance of the EDF1 when you need it most.
Replacing the battery
To change the battery, grip the body and battery in each hand and
rotate the body anticlockwise, then pull it up to remove.
Take the new battery and offer it up to the body so that the white
connector fits in the slot in the bottom of the body. Press the
body and battery together, lining the centre of the switch label up
with the arrow line on the battery body. Press the body down on
the battery and rotate clockwise to lock.
A self test should be carried out after a battery change.
