SILVA TRAIL SPEED 5X – THE FLEXIBLE, MODULAR HEADLAMP
Trail Speed 5X 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.
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), or mounted on the bike frame by
using the Velcro strap (not included).
The ergonomic battery holder keeps the battery in place and improves the
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 (not included), gently push the lamp upward relative
the head plate with head band. Insert the headlamp body in the new bracket and
gently press it down until you hear a click sound.
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 mount-ing with 2 or more straps on the
sides. (Not included)
Attach the headlamp in 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 deac-tivated, 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 flood light. 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 bet-ter. Our ingenious SILVA Flow
Light takes the optimization even further by providing seam-less tuning of the
light pattern for your favourite 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 push button with a short press.
- To start the headlamp with Flow Light deactivated press and hold push button for 1 second
- To cycle between the different modes use short presses.
- To turn the headlamp off press and hold 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 handle bar.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
This headlamp might get hot. The headlamp temperature is depending on light
mode, ambi-ent 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 acceptable surface tempera-ture 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 bat-tery 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 of the bat-tery. 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 headlamp is in reserve mode no
more low bat-tery warnings will appear before the headlamp turns OFF.
BATTERY STATUS INDICATION
When 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 from your battery, keep it away from low temperatures during use.
