SILVA EXCEED 4XT – THE FLEXIBLE, MODULAR HEADLAMP
Exceed 4XT is designed for Multi-activity Sports. Here is a description of the different op-
tions:
ADJUST THE HEADBAND
The headband is ergonomically shaped to give comfortable fit. Use the 2 buckle adjustments
to fit it perfectly to your head. Detachable top band included.
Attach the headlamp in the head bracket by sliding the headlamp foot into the snap-in
socket. To remove, slide the headlamp up and out of the bracket.
BATTERY CARRYING
The battery pack can be carried in multiple ways; for example in a pocket, backpack or on the
waist by using the extension cable and cable guide (rear), or mounted on the bike frame by
using the Velcro strap.
MODULAR SYSTEM
In order to move the headlamp body from the headband to either the helmet bracket or the
bar mount, gently push the lamp upward relative the head plate with head band. Insert the
headlamp body in the new bracket and gently press it down until you hear a click sound.
BIKE HANDLEBAR ATTACHMENT
The bar mount is developed for use on bike handlebars with a dimension between 22 mm and
35 mm. The bar mount is easily attached to the handle bar with the snap lock function. At-
tach the headlamp in the bar mount by sliding the headlamp bracket into the snap-in socket.
To remove, slide the headlamp up and out of the bracket.
HELMET ATTACHMENT
The helmet b rear cable guide comes with pre-mounted adhesive tape on the back
for easy mounting on any helmet. The adhesive is a polyethylene foam tape developed to not
damage or cause any type of weakness to the plastic in your helmet.
To mount the helmet bracket, remove the protective film covering the adhesive tape. Make
sure the surface of the helmet is clean and dry. Press the bracket onto its correct position.
If you do not want to use the adhesive on your helmet the attachment is prepared for mount-
ing with 2 or more straps on the sides. (Not included)
Attach the headlamp in the helmet bracket by sliding the headlamp bracket into the snap-in
socket. To remove, slide the headlamp up and out of the bracket.
Attach the cable by using the back cable guide or integrated helmet strap.
Depending on helmet type, it might be preferable to use the Helmet mode – Flow light deac-
tivated, when the headlamp is used on a helmet.
The headband is designed to fit on a helmet – thus giving you the flexibility to use either
the included helmet bracket or to just snap the headlamp onto your helmet and go.y type of
weakness to the plastic in your helmet.
DURING USE
SILVA INTELLIGENT LIGHT AND FLOW LIGHT
SILVA Intelligent Light
optimizes the light pattern by the unique combination of a long reach
spot light and a close flood light. With less head movements and a clear view of near as well
as far obstacles, you gain the balance and confidence it takes to move fast and perform bet-
ter. Our ingenious
SILVA Flow Light
takes the optimization even further by providing seam-
less tuning of the light pattern for your favourite sport. Simply tilting the light downwards
makes the beams wider to brighten up slower activities. When tilting the headlamp upwards,
the light reaches longer to provide perfect vision when you move fast.
SWITCH ON YOUR HEADLAMP
A push button is located on the left side of the headlamp body. This button controls all light
modes.
• To start the headlamp with Flow Light activated press push button with a short press.
• To start the headlamp with Flow Light deactivated press and hold push button for 1
second
• To cycle between the different modes use short presses.
• To turn the headlamp off press and hold button for 1 second

DEACTIVATED FLOW LIGHT
Flow Light deactivated means that the Light image will remain unchanged even if the
headlamp is tilted up or down. This might be useful when the lamp is mounted on a helmet or
a bike handle bar.
BOOST MODE
Exceed has a Boost mode that temporarily increases the light output to 2300 lumen during
10 seconds.
To enter Boost mode, do as follows:
• Switch headlamp ON (with Flow light activated or deactivated)
• Keep the power button pressed until headlamp turns OFF and keep pressing the button
until the headlamp switches back ON.
• Headlamp has now entered Boost mode
• The light will remain in Boost mode for 10 seconds and then return to the light mode from
where you entered Boost mode (for example MED)
Note!
During the 10 seconds the headlamp is in Boost mode it is not possible to use power
button.
TEMPETRATURE CONTROL:
This headlamp might get hot. The headlamp temperature is depending on light mode, ambi-
ent air temperature and airflow (speed). Make sure to keep it away from children.
Also, make sure it will not get in contact with sensitive or flammable material.
NOTE:
Always make sure to disconnect the battery when the lamp is not is use.
Why does the light dim down for no apparent reason?
If the cooling is not sufficient, for instance if used while standing still, indoors or in high
temperatures, then the light will automatically be reduced until acceptable surface tempera-
ture on the lamp body is reached. This means that the lower the ambient temperature, the
stronger the light output.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
During operation of the headlamp there will be a low battery warning when 10% of the bat-
tery energy remains. This is done by flashing both LEDs for 1 second.
RESERVE MODE
During operation, the lamp will go into reserve mode when there is 10% power left of the bat-
tery. All LEDs will flash before the lamp goes into this mode.
Reserve mode can be overridden by pressing the button.
Warning:
If you have pressed the button when headlamp is in reserve mode no more low bat-
tery warnings will appear before the headlamp turns OFF.
BATTERY STATUS INDICATION
When battery is connected and the headlamp is switched on - the current battery status will
automatically be visible for 30 seconds. To check battery status during use, the headlamp
has to be switched OFF and then back ON again.
• 5 green LEDs = Fully charged
• 4 green LEDs = 80% of the battery remains
• 3 green LEDs = 60% of the battery remains
• 2 green LEDs = 40% of the battery remains
• 1 red LED = 20% of the battery remains
To get as much power as possible out from your battery, keep it away from low temperatures
during use.
