LED LENSER® * h14R

.2

Since it has small parts that can be swallowed,

it is not suitable for persons below 5 years.

The article may not be used for examinations of

the eyes (e.g. for the so-called pupil test).

When using it, the accumulation of heat, e.g. by

covering, must be avoided.

If the product does not work correctly, the first

thing that must be checked is whether this is

due to discharged battery/accumulators or

because these are not inserted correctly.

If using in traffic, please follow the respective

legal regulations.

The hazard that poses the main threat in this

product through optical radiation is the Blue-

Light-Hazard (400 nm to 780 nm). Thermal

hazard threshold values are clearly not reached.

The risk for the viewer depends on the use or

on how the product is installed. However, there

is no optical hazard as long as the aversion

responses limit the time of exposure and as long

as the information contained in this instruction

manual is observed.

The aversion reactions are triggered by the

exposure and they are to mean all natural

reactions that protect the eye from hazards

through optical radiation. This includes in

particular conscious aversion reactions such as

eye or head movement (e.g. turning away).

When using the product it is of particular

importance to bear in mind that the aversion

reactions of persons at whom the light is

directed at may be weakened or completely

suspended as a result of medication, drugs or

illness.

Because of the blinding effect of the product,

improper use may lead to reversible, i.e.

temporary impairment of sight (physiological

blinding) or afterimages, or it may trigger

feeling unwell in the sense of feeling queasy

and tired (physiological blinding). The intensity

of the temporary feeling of being unwell or

the time until it subsides depend primarily

on the difference in brightness between the

blinding-light source and the surrounding area.

Photosensitive persons in particular ought to

consult a medical consultant prior to using this

product.

As a matter of principle the rule is that high-

intensity light sources carry a high secondary

hazard potential due to their blinding effect.

Just like looking into other bright light sources

(e.g. headlights of a car), the temporary limited

impairment of vision and afterimages may lead

to irritation, inconveniences, impairments and

even accidents, depending on the situation.

The information applies to the use of a single

product. If more light-emitting products of

the same type or of a different type are used

together, the intensity of the optical radiation

may increase.

Every longer viewing/eye-contact with the

source of radiation of this product by the user

or other persons, with and without other light-

bundling instruments, is to be avoided as a

matter of principle! Instead, the eyes are to be

closed deliberately in such cases and the head

ought to be turned away from the light beam.

In case of a commercial use or the product’s use

by public bodies, the user must be instructed

as to all applicable laws and regulations that

correspond to the individual case of usage.

Important rules of conduct:

Do not aim the light beam directly into the eyes

of a person.

The user or any other person should not look

directly into the light beam.

In the event of optical radiation hitting the eye,

the eyes must deliberately shut and the head is

to be turned away from the beam.

The instruction manual and this information

must be stored safely and must be passed on

together with the product.

It is prohibited to look straight into the light that

is being emitted by this product.
