Additional information for SEO with TEST IT

Your LED LENSER SEO 5 headlamp with the
item no. 6105 or 6106 (item no. 6005 and

The TEST IT button is connected to the battery

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
Alkaline batteries / Accumulator-Pack / NiMH-
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 respectively accumulators noting
the correct polarity. Close the battery housing.
Please dispose and recycle the packaging and

2. Switching on and off
In the upper part of the headlamp housing of
the SEO 5, between battery box and the part
with the reflector lens, there is the switch
button. This switch button is used to turn the
SEO 5 on. It is also used to activate the various
Light Programs and Lighting Functions (see
section 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. Focus
In the front, narrower region of the headlamp
housing is the reflector lens through which the
light of the white LED (see Point 5.1) is focused.
The reflector lens is held by a plastic ring. You
can rotate that plastic ring using two fingers,
and thus adjust the focus quickly and easily.
This so-called Speed Focus allows to adjust
the angle of the white light beam continuously.
Depending on whether you want to illuminate
an area in the distance or in front of you, you
also 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 5 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 5 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 5 is monitored by the in-built
temperature control unit.
5. Light Programs and Light Functions
In the SEO 5 are two LEDs (LED = Light Emitting
Diode) installed.
The white LED is very strong, ideal for normal
use, for example if the Speed Focus or the
adjustment of the angle of light beam to the
horizontal should be used. 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 white light,
it remains the current adjustment of the eye
to low brightness obtained when the red light
of the second LED is used. The focus and the
angle of the light to the horizontal of the red
LED, which is located laterally next to the
reflector-lens, can not be adjusted.
In order to switch between the white and the
red LED, when the SEO 5 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 LED (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 Light Program White is enabled (see
Point 5), you can use the white, focusable light
of the headlamp.
When the switch button is pushed, while the
SEO 5 is off, the headlamp glows in the Light
Function Power at full brightness. When you
