  3. On the battery, there are 5 LEDs showing battery status during charging:
  • Greenlight (all 5 LEDs) = battery is fully charged
  • Red light blinking = battery is charging

The charge time is approximately 4 hours.
Note! When the battery is fully charged the charger automatically switches to maintenance mode.
Note! Never leave a battery unattended during charging.
Exceed 4R is compatible with all Silva batteries with the same connector as on Exceed 4R battery.
Note that the battery indicator may not be accurate with other Silva batteries and that the battery won’t fit the battery holder.
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. 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 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 (not included), or mounted on the bike frame by using the Velcro strap (not included).
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.

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 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 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 one 1second
  • 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.

BOOST MODE
Exceed has a Boost mode that temporarily increases the light output to 2300 lumen in 10 seconds. To enter Boost mode, do as follows:

  • Switch headlamp ON (with Flow light-activated or deactivated)
  • Keep the power button pressed until the headlamp turns OFF and keep pressing the button until the headlamp switches back ON.
  • The 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 the power button.

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 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 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.
