Red (glowing continuously) – charging ongoing.
Green (glowing continuously) – Charging completed, the M17R is ready for use with the full capacity of the battery. It generally takes 2 to 3 hours for
an empty M17R to get fully charged.
No light– The cause of this can be that the Floating Charge System
Pro
is not getting adequate electric power. But it can also be that there is a loose
contact. Therefore, check whether (magnetic) objects or dirt are hindering a good contact between the charging contacts at the end of the M17R and
the magnetic charging socket. If required, remove them. If required, also correct the position or the angle of the M17R in the charging socket. If, given
an adequate electric power supply, the charge indicators still do not glow, immediately isolate the transformer or the optional car charger of the M17R
from the present power supply system and get in touch with your dealer.
12. 360° Power Indicator
The 360° Power Indicator consists of 10 blue-glowing elements, which are arranged in a circle around the two concentric charging contacts at the end
of the shaft of the M17R.
During use, the number of blue-glowing elements reduces further and just before the Power Module is empty, the last element glows in red.
Depending on when the charging contacts are pressed, the following can be determined from the number of elements glowing.
1.) Battery status indication
If the charging contacts are pressed while the M17R is off, the elements serve as a battery charging status indication. If, for example, all the 10
elements briefly glow blue, the M17R is fully charged.
2.) Operating time indication
If the charging contacts of the M17R are pressed while the M17R is being operated with a Light Function, the number of glowing elements provides an
indication of the remaining relative lighting duration of the current Light Function.
The M17R also shows this information for a brief moment when a light function has been selected by tapping or switching at the
“Fast Action Switch”
, i.e.
even without the 360° Power Indicator having been actuated.
13. Changing the Power Module
Please charge the rechargeable battery in time. If the Power Module exhibits any atypical behaviour, please change it. For changing this accumulator,
please first switch off the pocket torch without fail, and unscrew the part behind the “Fast Action Switch”. You have thus separated the lamp head from
the Power Module (shaft including “Safety Ytrion Cell” battery pack). For the disposal of the used Power Module, please read Point 14.
Screw on a new Power Module onto the lamp head till it cannot be turned any more. Thanks to the innovative new contact system and the fixed
connection between the lamp shaft and the
“Safety Ytrion Cell” battery pack (Power Module), transposition of the polarity is not possible.
14. Rechargeable batteries / Accumulators
Only the correspondingly approved LED LENSER Power Module, consisting of the
“Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack and shaft, may be used in this
pocket torch. The Power Module was developed to ensure the highest level of safety and benefit.
If you have separated the used Power Module from the lamp head as described in Point 13, please unscrew the rear part of the shaft at the level of
the charging display. You will then see a PCB of the “Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack on this side as well, upon looking into the tube. The PCB is held
in place on this side in the shaft by a narrow plastic ring with thread. For removing the
“Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack from the shaft, unscrew this
plastic ring from the shaft. For doing so, use the two grooves in the plastic ring that are displaced 180° from one another but make sure that that you
do not short circuit the contacts of the
“Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack. The
“Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack can now be easily removed and disposed
of in keeping with the national laws. The shaft can be disposed of in the domestic trash.
In contrast to the Power Module (shaft with “Safety Ytrion Cell”), a replacement of a “Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack in a Power Module may not
be carried out. Neither is it permitted, after removal of the
“Safety Ytrion Cell”
battery pack, to charge it in any other manner or instead, to use
accumulators or batteries in the Power Module. The Power Module may only be opened once, for separate disposal of the Ytrion Cell battery pack and
the shaft; otherwise, the manufacturer’s warranty will be rendered null and void.
In general, for the disposal of batteries as well as particularly for Lithium batteries, accumulators and accumulator packs, the applicable rule is that
they may only be disposed of in discharged state and in a technically correct manner. If they are not discharged, then before disposal, by sticking non-
conducting adhesive tape over the contacts, it has to be ensured that short-circuits are not possible.
Basically, the possibility of short-circuits of accumulators and batteries must be eliminated and they may neither be opened, nor enter the human body
in any way, nor may they be thrown into a fire.
15. Cleaning
For cleaning, please use a dry, lint-free clean cloth.
If salt water is spilled on the lamp, it must be immediately entirely removed with such a cloth.
If it is not possible to rotate the selection ring of the “Fast Action Switch” smoothly any more, it must be separated from the M17R, and the underside
and the lamp tubes cleaned of dirt. To do so, with the screws, separate the lamp head from the Power Module. Carefully remove the black O-ring of
rubber that is located above the lamp head thread. When the switch button is now pressed deep, the selection ring can be removed over the switch
button in the direction of the thread. Please ensure here that the small spring-loaded ball including its casing above the switch button is not lost.
Both surfaces can now be cleaned and the parts can be assembled again in the opposite sequence.
If the reflector lens has got loose in the lamp head or, e.g. dirt has got deposited on its inner side, you can apply the following remedial measures.
The foremost one centimetre of the M17R, with the 12 indicated holes along the periphery, can be unscrewed. There is a plastic ring that fixes
the reflector lens in it, and it can be tightened or removed for cleaning. You can clean the reflector lens if required, with a dry, lint-free clean cloth.
Thereafter, please assemble everything in the opposite sequence.

17. Caution:
Do not swallow any small parts or batteries that are present. The products or parts thereof (including batteries) must be stored outside the reach of
children.
For reasons of safety and approval (CE), the product must not be modified and/or changed. The product is to be used exclusively as a pocket torch.
If the M17R is used for any other purpose, or used incorrectly, it can get damaged and hazard-free use is not guaranteed any more (danger from fire,
short-circuit, electric shock etc.). There is then no liability for harm to persons or damage to property, and the warranty of the manufacturer is also
rendered null and void.
The temperature range in which the M17R can be operated is -20 C° to +50 C°. Ensure that the M17R is not subjected to extreme temperatures,
intense vibrations, explosive atmosphere, solvents and/or , vapours. Also continuously exposed to direct sunlight, high humidity and/or moisture have
to be avoided.
Changes, repairs and maintenance over and above those described in the documents accompanying the product may only be carried out by
authorised technical personnel.
Once it is found that the product is charged and correctly screwed/closed, but nonetheless, normal, safe operation is not possible or the product shows
damage, it must be rendered inoperative and not used any further. In this case, for warranty matters, contact your dealer.
18. Safety instructions
• This product is not a children's toy.
• 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 a discharged battery or because the shaft and the
lamp head are not screwed tight enough together.
• If using in traffic, please follow the respective legal regulations.
• Owing to the permanent magnets in the selection ring of the “Fast Action Switch”
and in the magnetic charging socket of the Floating Charge System
Pro
,
both the parts must be at a safe distance to, for example, heart pacemakers or magnetic storage media.
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.
