WARNING
How To Operate the EL200 Series
The EL200 Series unit can be operated in five different modes.
NOTE: After installation, the battery reaches maximum charge in
about one week.
• Night Light ON — Press the lens once when the night light is
OFF and the night light will come ON at 25% of full brightness.
In this mode the night light is powered by the building current.
• Night Light OFF — Press the lens once when the night light is
ON and the night light will power OFF.
• Power Failure Light ON — When building current is discon-
nected (e.g., during a power failure), the power failure light will
automatically come ON at 100% of full brightness and remain lit
until the battery is discharged (1.5 hours at a full charge). NOTE:
As the battery runs out of power, the unit will begin to flash and
will continue to do so until all power is drained from the battery
or power is restored.
• Power Failure Light OFF — When the power failure light is ON
(and the unit is operating on battery power), press and hold the
lens for 5 or more seconds to manually turn it OFF. NOTE: You
can press and hold the lens again for 5 or more seconds to turn
the light back ON.
• Battery Test — After battery has had a minimum of 1 week to
charge, press and hold the lens for 5 seconds to switch the unit
from building current to battery power which turns ON the light
at the 100% brightness level. If the light doesn't come on, the
battery is dead or damaged. Releasing the lens will switch the
unit back into normal operation.
