Overview

BATTERIES

Your battery life will vary depending upon these factors:

  • Brand and freshness of batteries.
  • "Recovery time" or time when lamp has not been on.
  • Temperature.
  • Lamp settings used.

The batteries are oriented according to the diagram shown on the inside of the battery box.

  • Use AA alkaline batteries or the Black Diamond NRG Battery Kit which includes a rechargeable NiMH unit.
  • Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types.
  • Dispose of the used batteries properly.
  • Remove the batteries during storage and transport.

The Icon has seven light-output settings—three brightness settings and strobe illumination on SuperBright LEDs and High, Mid and Low settings on the three-watt LED. Modes and Settings

To turn on the Icon, depress and release (click) the switch (Figure 1), located on the bottom of the housing. Either the three SuperBright LEDs or the three-watt HyperBright LED will activate at the brightest (high) setting. Two full depressions will access the other mode: To access the brightness settings in either mode, depress the switch halfway in sequence.
Turning on

Half depression = Middle setting

Half depression = Economy setting

Half depression = Strobe (SuperBright LEDs only)

A full depression "click" and release of the switch will turn the headlamp off at any time.

Mode Memory: The Icon will remember the last setting you used. If you wait five seconds after turning off the lamp, the lamp will turn back on at the same mode setting at full brightness.
