SILVA TRAIL SPEED 5XT – THE FLEXIBLE, MODULAR HEADLAMP
Trail Speed 5XT is designed for Multi-activity Sports. Here is a description of the different options:

ADJUST THE HEADBAND
The headband is ergonomically shaped to give a comfortable fit. Use the 2 buckle adjustments to fit it perfectly to your head. The detachable top band is included.
Attach the headlamp to 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 on the headband by using the battery holder, 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.
The ergonomic battery holder keeps the battery in place and improves comfort when you carry the battery on your head. You attach the battery holder to the headband and then easily slide in the battery.

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 to the head plate with a headband. 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 32 mm. The bar mount is attached to the handlebar by wrapping the rubber strap around the handlebar and fastening it on the plastic hook.
Attach the headlamp to 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 bracket + 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 mounting with 2 or more straps on the sides. (Not included)

Attach the headlamp to 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 deactivated when the headlamp is used on a helmet.
The headband is designed to fit on a helmet by detaching the battery holder – thus giving you the flexibility to use either the included helmet bracket or to just snap the headlamp onto your helmet and go.

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 floodlight. With fewer 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 better. Our ingenious SILVA Flow Light takes the optimization even further by providing seamless tuning of the light pattern for your favorite 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 the push button with a short press.
To start the headlamp with Flow Light deactivated press and hold the push-button for 1 second
To cycle between the different modes use short presses.
To turn the headlamp off press and hold the 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 handlebar.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
This headlamp might get hot. The headlamp temperature is depending on light mode, ambient 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 in 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 the acceptable surface temperature on the lamp body is reached. This means that the lower the ambient temperature, the stronger the light output.

LOW BATTERY WARNING
During the operation of the headlamp, there will be a low battery warning when 10% of the battery 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 in the battery. 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 the headlamp is in reserve mode no more low battery warnings will appear before the headlamp turns OFF.

BATTERY STATUS INDICATION

When the 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 of your battery, keep it away from low temperatures during use.
