Using work lights (W200x) 7

Zeta W200x helmet has LED work lights that are powered by a rechargeable Li- ion battery unit on the neckband.

1. Press the battery test button on the battery unit to check the battery level.
2. For charging, remove the battery unit from the helmet and charge the battery using the unit’s USB-C connection and charging cable (charger not delivered with the product).
3. Insert the battery unit into the battery holder in the headband and connect the LED work light cable to it.
4. Use the OFF/AUTO/ON selector to turn the lights on and off. The AUTO mode turns the lights off in bright conditions (e.g. during welding) and then back on.
   Caution: Never use a damaged battery unit. The LED light battery unit is not waterproof. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, moisture, sand and dust. Observe the battery unit while charging. If the battery unit becomes hot, smokes or there are visible deformations in the battery unit during charging, stop charging immediately.
