REACTIVE LIGHTING® technology
Using REACTIVE LIGHTING® technology, a sensor analyzes the ambient light and automatically adjusts brightness to user requirements.
Lamp operation
Turning on & off, selecting
The lamp has three modes: REACTIVE LIGHTING®, STANDARD LIGHTING and RED
LIGHTING.
-
SWIFT RL E095BB:
The lamp has three brightness levels per mode: MAX BURN TIME, STANDARD and MAX POWER. When you turn on the lamp, it always lights up with REACTIVE LIGHTING® technology. -
SWIFT RL E0810AB:
The lamp has four brightness levels for REACTIVE LIGHTING® and STANDARD LIGHTING modes: close-range work, proximity lighting, movement and long-range vision. The lamp turns on in the same mode as when you last switched it off, at the lowest brightness level. -
0SWIFT RL E095BB and E0810AB:
When switching between REACTIVE LIGHTING® and STANDARD LIGHTING modes, the brightness level remains the same. -
With REACTIVE LIGHTING® technology, when the sensor detects an area with sufficient light, the lamp will blink dimly for two minutes, then automatically turn off to conserve rechargeable battery life.
-
The lamp’s burn time in REACTIVE LIGHTING® mode varies depending on usage.
-
In REACTIVE LIGHTING® mode, the lamp turns off after two minutes of remaining motionless in an area with constant ambient light. In this case, use the STANDARD LIGHTING mode instead.
-
Lock the lamp when not in use to avoid accidentally turning it on.
-
The energy gauge lights when the lamp is turned on or off.
-
Reserve lighting: the lamp blinks when it switches to reserve lighting, and 5 minutes beforehand. When the lamp switches to reserve lighting, it provides enough light to walk by, but not enough for a dynamic activity.
-
When the switch is pressed for more than six seconds, the lamp turns off.
Charging the rechargeable battery
The lamp comes with a Petzl Li-Ion rechargeable battery.
Capacity: 2350 mAh. Charge it completely before first use.
Use only a Petzl ACCU SWIFT RL rechargeable battery.
In general, Li-Ion rechargeable batteries lose 10 % of their capacity each
year. After 300 charge/discharge cycles, they still have about 70 % of their
initial capacity.
WARNING
Charge only with a USB cable. The charger’s output voltage must not exceed 5
V.
Use only a Class II electrical, CE/UL approved charger (double insulation
against hazardous voltages). Do not leave the battery unattended while
charging.
Charging time
Charging time is 5 hours with the USB charger or a computer. Note: if several
USB devices are connected to a computer, the charging time can increase. While
charging, the battery charge indicator lights steady red, then turns steady
green when charging is complete.
Replacing the rechargeable battery
Use only a Petzl ACCU SWIFT RL rechargeable battery: ACCU SWIFT RL E092DB00
(USB-C) or E092DA00 (USB) or E810BA00 (USB). Using another type of
rechargeable battery can damage the lamp. Do not use another type of
rechargeable battery.

A. Rechargeable battery precautions
WARNING – DANGER: there is a risk of explosion and burns.
WARNING: incorrect use can damage the rechargeable battery.
- Do not submerge the rechargeable battery in water.
- Do not dispose of a rechargeable battery in fire.
- Do not expose the battery to high temperatures. Follow the recommended usage and storage temperatures.
- Do not destroy the rechargeable battery; it can explode or release toxic materials.
- If the rechargeable battery is damaged, do not dismantle it or change its structure. Dispose of the rechargeable battery in accordance with current local regulations.
- If the battery leaks electrolyte, avoid any contact with this caustic and dangerous liquid; see a doctor if any contact occurs. Change out the battery and dispose of the defective battery in accordance with current local regulations.
B. Lamp precautions
WARNING: a headband can pose a strangulation risk. Certain small parts
pose a choking risk (e.g. batteries).
Eye safety
The lamp is classified in risk group 2 (moderate risk) according to the IEC
62471 standard.
-
Do not stare directly at the lamp when lit.
-
The optical radiation emitted by the lamp can be dangerous. Avoid aiming the
lamp’s beam into another person’s eyes. Beware of the risk of blinding others in
your work environment, particularly in areas subject to traffic regulations. -
There is a risk of retinal damage from the emission of blue light, particularly in children.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Meets regulations on electromagnetic compatibility. WARNING: this does not
guarantee that interference will not occur. If you notice electromagnetic
interference between the lamp and electrical devices, turn off the lamp or
keep it away from sensitive electronic devices (e.g. avalanche beacons, flight
controls, communications equipment, medical devices…).
ErP Directive
Complies with energy-related product Directive (ErP) 2009/125/EC.
- Instantaneous full brightness
- Color temperature: 6000-7000 K
- Focused beam nominal angle: 15° / wide: 50°
- Number of switching cycles before failure: 13000 minimum.
C. Cleaning, drying
In the event of contact with seawater, rinse the lamp in fresh water and dry
it.
Do not allow chemicals to come into contact with the lamp.
D. Storage, transport
For long-term storage, charge the rechargeable battery (repeat every six
months) and remove the battery from the lamp. Avoid allowing the rechargeable
battery to discharge completely. Be sure to store the rechargeable battery in
a dry place. The ideal storage temperature is between 20 and 25° C.
After 12 months in these conditions without use, the rechargeable battery will
be discharged.
For carrying the lamp when not in use, we recommend that the battery be
