Replace the battery with a readily available coin type CR2450 Lithium Battery or equivalent.
Replacement battery CHAMELEON 4V+
Spare batteries Cat. N°: W00026092. To replace the batteries, remove the auto-darkening lens assembly.
After removing the lens assembly, slide the battery holding trays out and remove the old batteries.
Replace with Cat. N° : W00026092 CR2450 lithium type batteries (2 required) or equivalent.
Be sure Positive (+) side of the battery faces up (toward inside of helmet).
Reinstall the battery trays. To test, press the On button. The display screen should turn on.
Reinstall the lens assembly. Left and right battery trays are not interchangeable. The auto−darkening
helmet will not work if battery trays are installed on the wrong sides.
Adjusting Headgear for Maximum Comfort
There are four headgear adjustments: headgear top, tightness, distance adjustment, and angle
adjustment.
1. Headgear Top: Adjusts headgear for proper depth on the head to ensure correct balance and stability.
2. Headgear Tightness: To adjust, hold the adjusting knob located on the back of the headgear and
turn left or right to desired tightness.
3. Distance Adjustment: Adjusts the distance between the face and the lens. To adjust, hold both
tension knobs and move forward or back to desired position. (Both sides must be equally positioned
for proper vision.)
4. Angle Adjustment: 6 locations for the arm tap on the right side of the headband top provide
adjustment for the forward tilt of the helmet by each 8°. To adjust, lift the control arm tab and move
it to the desired position. Retighten tension adjustment knob.

Replacing the lens covers
Never use the auto-darkening lens without the inside and outside lens covers properly
installed. Welding spatter will damage the auto-darkening lens and void the warranty.
Outside Lens Cover. Remove the outside lens cover by pushing cover into the helmet. Remove the
rubber lens gasket and install on the new lens cover. Be sure the flat side of lens cover gasket faces
the helmet shell. Reinstall the lens assembly.
Inside Lens Cover. To replace the inside lens cover, remove the lens assembly from the lens frame
by pushing up on the top two retaining tabs while gently pushing the lens free. Remove the lens cover
by sliding it out of either side. Replace with the new cover lens and reinstall the assembly in the
helmet.
Maintenance - Cleaning
The helmet requires little maintenance. However, for best performance clean after each use. Using a
soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution, wipe the cover lenses clean. Allow to air
dry. Occasionally, the filter lens and sensors should be cleaned by gently wiping with a soft, dry cloth.
(Never use solvents or abrasive cleaning detergents. Do not immerse the lens assembly in water.)
Troubleshooting
Symptom
Not On - auto-lens will not darken
momentarily when turned on.
Not switching - auto-lens stays
light and will not darken when welding.
Not Switching - auto-lens stays dark
after the weld arc is extinguished,
or the auto-lens stays dark
when no arc is present.
Sections of the auto-lens are not going
dark, distinct lines separate the light
and dark areas.
Switching or Flickering - the auto-lens
darkens then lightens while the welding
arc is present.
Inconsistent or lighter auto-lens shading.
In the dark-state, noticiable on the outside
edges and corners.

Solution
Check batteries and verify they are in good condition
and installed properly. Also, check battery surfaces and
contacts and clean if necessary. Check battery for
proper contact and gently adjust contact points if
necessary. This is particularly important if the helmet
has been dropped.
Stop welding immediately: Make sure the auto-lens
power is turned ON. If power is on, review the
sensitivity recommendations and adjust sensitivity.
Clean lens cover and sensors of any obstructions.
Make sure the sensors are facing the arc; angles of
45° or more may not allow the arc light to reach the
sensors.
Fine-tune the sensitivity setting by making small
adjustments to the control by turning it toward the
"min" setting. In extreme light conditions, it may be
necessary to reduce the surrounding light levels.
Stop welding immediately: The auto-lens may be
cracked which can be caused by the impact of
dropping the helmet. Weld spatter on the auto lens may
also cause cracking. (The lens needs to be replaced;
most cracked lenses are not covered by warranty).
Review the sensitivity setting recommendations and
increase the sensitivity if possible. Be sure the arc
sensors are not being blocked from direct access to
the arc light. Check the lens cover for dirt and spatter
that may be blocking the arc sensors.
Refferred to as an angle of view effect, auto darkening
lenses have an optimum viewing angle. The optimum
viewing angle is perpendicular or 90° to the surface of
the auto-lens. When that angle of view varies in the
dark-state, welders may notice slightly lighter areas at
the outside edges and the corners of the lens. This is
normal and does not represent any health or safety
hazard. This effect may also be more noticeable in
applications where magnifying lenses are used.
