MOUNTING THE LIGHT UNIT ON A HELMET
Installing the helmet mount and light unit
Attach the helmet mount to the helmet.
1. Securely fasten the helmet mount to the front part of the helmet, wrapping the velcro
strap through the air vents on the helmet.
2. Mount the light unit onto the helmet mount.
3. Secure the cable on the rear of the helmet using the spare cable strap.
Put on the helmet and adjust the angle of the beam. To remove the light unit, pull the
light unit forward while pressing the button on the base of the light unit.
CAUTION!: Make sure the light unit is cool to the touch before removing it.
Connecting the extension cord
Connect the extension cord between the light unit and the battery unit.
Align the male and female cable ends and connect them. Turn the plugs so that they are
securely locked.
Precautions when handling the battery unit
While riding, place the battery unit in your jersey pocket or hydration/back pack.
Before using the light, make sure the battery is correctly stored in its neoprene bag.
CAUTION!: Pay attention to the arrangement of the cable so that it does not interfere with
the handling of the bicycle. Do not wind the cable because the wire inside the
cable may break.
NOTE: Wind the fixing strap around the center of the battery unit.

INTRODUCTION
Before using the light, please thoroughly read this manual and keep it for future
reference.
Thank you for purchasing the CATEYE DOUBLE SHOT HL-EL 710RC. The Double Shot light uses high-power
white LEDs, and has a much longer operating life than other high-power rechargeable systems.
FOR SAFE OPERATION
• Never short-circuit the terminals of the battery unit or the battery charger. It may cause the unit to
overheat, resulting in fire or damage to the component.
• Securely connect the plug so that the cable will not come unplugged or hinder your riding.
• Never use damaged components (e.g., cables, etc.). Send any damaged components to our customer
service department for repair.
• The light unit may become extremely hot when on or immediately after it is turned off. Please use
with caution.
• Do not place it within children’s reach.
• We recommend carrying a flashlight or spare battery unit with you in case the main battery dies.
• Charge the battery unit before using because the unit self-discharges over time, decreasing its voltage.
• Do not leave the battery overly discharged because it shortens the operating life of the battery. Try to
charge the battery unit after each use. (“Overly discharged” refers to the state the battery is in when
used over a period of time while below the specified cutoff voltage.)
• If the lamp body or parts become dirty with mud, etc., clean with a soft cloth which is moistened with
mild soap. Never apply paint thinner, benzine or alcohol; damage will result.
• Place the battery unit at least 10 cm away from any wireless meter, as transmitting and receiving
performance may be adversely affected.
• Never disassemble the light unit, battery unit, or battery charger.
• This product is water-resistant under normal weather conditions of rain, etc. However, do not
intentionally submerge it in water or allow rainwater to enter the battery bag.
Before Initial Use
The battery is shipped with a small charge, that is used to test the unit at the factory. As such, it is
necessary to charge the battery before initial use. (Refer to the “How to Charge” section in this manual.)
