Switch the RC1 remote control to PAIR mode. 2. Switch the Video 8XR light to remote mode “R”, now pairing is possible during the next 10 seconds. 3. Turn the brightness knob on the RC1 remote control. (Use the channel you want the light to be paired to). 4. The�light�confirms�a�successful�pairing�with�short�flashes. 3� CHaRgE Of tHE BattERy Only use the supplied Li-Ion charger to charge the battery. For best results, the battery should be charged at room temperature. Avoid charging when batteries are still hot after use. Let them cool down before charging. 4� MaIntEnanCE Of BattERy It is not recommended to discharge the battery after each dive. Complete discharge after every use may�reduce�life�time�of�battery.�We�recommend�the�following�service�procedures: •�For storage remove battery from casing. •�Discharge and recharge the battery at least once every 6 months. •�Avoid deep discharge of the battery pack. •�Store battery with approximately a 30-60% partial charge in a dry and cool place. •�Charge fully before each dive. •�The storage of a fully discharged battery may cause permanent damage to the battery. 5� BattERy PROtECtIOn CIRCuIt The integrated protection circuit protects the battery from overload, overcharge and deep discharge. InStRuCtIOnS VIDEO 8XR 20000lm CRI86 Operating Instructions 4 6� CHaRgE LEVEL InDICatOR The charge level monitor circuit shows the available energy by taking into account charge and discharge currents. The two digit numerical display shows the remaining run time in minutes at the actual power setting. During charge it shows the remaining charge time (1 digit = 10 minutes). The display is turned off when the battery is fully charged. The LED bar with the green LED is a relative display which tells you the actual charge level like a fuel gauge. 7� uSE In aIR The video light can also be used outside water but at low power level only. If the light gets too hot, the over temperature protection will be activated and the power will be reduced automatically to avoid overheating. 8� HOW tO OPEn tHE CaSIng Remove excess water from the outside before opening. Point the light slightly upward while opening to avoid water from entering the housing. Friction of the O-ring seal (and therefore force needed to open the cap) increases over storage time. After long and deep dives the friction might increase too. To avoid high friction, regularly grease the O-ring. 9� MaIntEnanCE After each use rinse well with fresh water. Do not allow water to dry on glass to avoid water marks especially when diving in high mineral content brackish water. Rinse the black magnetic switch ring by rotating 3-5 times to dislodge salt or sand on inner portion. Care�should�be�taken�to�avoid�scratching�of�the�O-ring�seals.�Keep�seals�clean�of�sand,�hair,�cloth�fibers� or similar materials at all times. O-rings of the battery screw cap should be regularly inspected and cleaned. Occasionally apply small amounts of silicone grease for lubrication. If not treated, the O-ring will fail to provide proper sealing causing the light to malfunction. •� Do not use sharp tools to remove the O-ring. •� Never use a battery which appears damaged. •� In case of a damaged lamp, contact your nearest KELDAN® dealer. •� Do not remove front glass cover (high operating voltage). •� O-rings need to be replaced by KELDAN® or an authorized dealer every 5 years.
