INTELLIGENT LIGHT

Trail Runner Free is equipped with Intelligent Light, which is a light distribution technology 
that combines a wide-angle flood light with a long reach spotlight. This unique light distribu-
tion, customized for running, gives the user peripheral and long-distance vision at the same 
time. For a runner - this results in less head movement, increased control, better balance and 
more speed.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Trail Runner Free packaging consists of the following parts:

•  Headlamp unit 
•  Free Technology™ headband 
•  Hybrid battery case with built in visibility light
•  Textile extension cord
•  3 pcs AAA batteries 
•  Quick guide 

BEFORE USE

ADJUST THE HEADBAND

The elastic headband with anti-slip silicone on the inside is designed to give a comfortable fit 
and to stay in place at speed activities such as running. Adjust the headband by moving the 2 
sliding buckles on each side to fit comfortably on your head.

INSERT THE BATTERIES 

Open the hybrid battery case and insert three AAA batteries. Either Alkaline (Included), NiMH 
or Lithium batteries can be used. Please note the battery polarity. 

As an option, a rechargeable Hybrid battery is available for purchase that fits perfectly in the 
Hybrid battery case.

Do not mix different brands of batteries. Do not mix batteries with different levels of dis-
charge. If you don’t intend to use the headlamp for a longer period, make sure you remove the 
batteries from the battery case before storing.

CONNECTION TO HEADBAND

Connect the Hybrid battery case to the buckle on the headband located on the left side. 
Included is also a textile extension cord that can be connected in between the headband 
buckle and the battery case if you want to carry your Hybrid battery case in a your backpack, 
pocket or similar.

On the side of the headlamp body there is a push button which controls all light modes.

Each press on the button gives you the following light:

MAX MODE INDICATION:
Trail Runner Free is equipped with a visual indication when you toggle from minimum bright-
ness mode to maximum brightness mode. This is visible with a quick flash and is helpful to 
prevent unnecessary button presses.

light ON, open the Hybrid battery case and slide the switch (located on the lower left side 
inside the case) to desired position (flashing red or red).
