Additional information for SEO with TEST IT
function
Your LED LENSER SEO 3 headlamp with the
item no. 6103 (item no. 6003: No TEST IT
function ) is packaged with a TEST IT function.
This allows users to test the brightness while
the product is still in the package. For testing,
simply push the yellow TEST IT button on the
front of the package. When testing, please do
not look directly into the light.
The TEST IT button is connected to the battery
housing of the SEO 3 via two wires and should
be removed prior to use.
To remove the TEST IT button and wires, open
the battery housing and remove the 3 x AAA
batteries (see also “Changing of the batteries
/ accumulators” further below). Separate the
two TEST IT button wires from the battery
housing by pulling on each wire until it releases
from the battery housing. Insert the 3 x AAA
batteries noting the correct polarity. Close the
battery housing. Please dispose and recycle the
packaging and TEST IT button with the wires

2. Switching on and off
In the upper part of the headlamp housing of the
SEO 3, between battery box and the part with
the 4 LEDs (LED = Light Emitting Diode), there is
the switch button. This switch button is used to
turn the SEO 3 on. It is also used to activate the
various Light Programs and Lighting Functions
(see Point 5) and to switch between white light
and red light (see Point 5). In addition, you can
also activate the “Transport Lock” (see Point 6).
3. Angular Adjustment
You can adjust the angle of light beam to the
horizontal. For this you can simply tilt the part of
the head lamp, which contains the reflector lens
and the white LED. The screening allows using
also intermediate positions.
4. Smart Light Technology (SLT)
The SEO 3 is equipped with our Smart Light
Technology (SLT). Thanks to the use of a
microcontroller, the light output of the LED can
be controlled and the user can use various Light
Programs and Light Functions. By using a single
switch it was possible to design the interface
to be simple and user-friendly. The SEO 3 can
give the user light in different ways. There
are thus two Light Programs and a number of
Light Functions available. To switch the pocket
torch on and off and to select the various Light
Functions etc., the switch (see Point 2) has to be
used.
What basically applies is that the brightness
of the SEO 3 is monitored by the in-built
temperature control unit.
5. Light Programs and Light Functions
In the SEO 3 are 4 LEDs (LED = Light Emitting
Diode) installed. 3 produce white light and one
red light.
The white LEDs are ideal for normal use. This
very bright white light might be not good when
your eyes have become accustomed through the
so-called dark adaptation to low ambient light.
Otherwise than with the use of the whitelight,
it remains the current adjustment of the eye to
low brightness obtained when the red light of
the red LED is used.
In order to switch between the white and the red
LED, when the SEO 3 is off, press and hold the
switch button for 2 seconds. The head lamp will
change from red to white or from white to red,
and then release the switch button before the
lights go out, because if you press too long the
switch button you activate the “Transport Lock”
(see section 6)!
The points below deal with the Light Functions
of the white LEDs (Light Program White / Point
5.1) and the red LED (Light Program “Red Night
Vision” / Point 5.2).
5.1 Light Program White
If the Lighting Program White is enabled (see
Point 5), you can use the white light of the head
lamp.
When the switch button is pressed, if the SEO 3
is off, the head lamp glows in the Light Function
Power at full brightness. When you switch a
second time within 2 seconds, the SEO 3 glows
with lower brightness (Light Low Power).
After the Light Function Low Power (altogether
3 times fast switching, i.e. you do not wait longer
than 2 seconds between each switching) comes
the Light Function Signal (slow even flashing) in
the Light Program White.
Additional switching turns SEO 3 off and the
circle starts again with the Light Function Power
when you press the switch button again.
So the Light Functions are in a loop. But Please
note that you turn off the head lamp by every
switching if since the previous switching more
than 2 seconds have elapsed. For example in
case you let pass more than 2 seconds after
you turned the Light Function Low Power on the
next switching will not change to head lamp to
Light Function Signal but will turn the SEO 3 off.
5.2 Light Program “Red Night Vision”
If the Lighting Program “Red Night Vision” is
enabled (see Point 5), you can use the red light
of the head lamp.
When the switch button is pressed, when the
SEO 3 is off, the head lamp glows in the Light
Function Power at full brightness in red. When
you switch a second time within 2 seconds, the
