Undo velcro closure and remove plastic tube.

Slide the top cover off and slide out the battery chassis

Observe proper battery polarity when installing the batteries.

WARNING

• Never mix fresh and used batteries.

• Never mix different battery brands or chemistry types.

• Always remove drained batteries immediately.

• Remove batteries during long periods of storage.

Princeton Tec cares about the environment and recommends

recycling batteries. For more information about battery

recycling, please go to: www.batteryrecycling.com

Improper installation of the batteries will damage the light and

void the warranty.

Lithium batteries hold a charge better in extreme cold weather

and are lighter in weight than Alkaline or rechargeable

batteries. Rechargeable Nicad or NiMH batteries may result

in reduced brightness in some modes due to lower voltage.

NOTE: Some battery types can emit hydrogen gas, which can

create an explosion potential in sealed devices if it is not

vented or removed. The Apex battery pack is equipped with

a platinum catalyst to remove this gas. Upon severe impact,

the catalyst could fracture and enter the battery pack. If you

notice a rattling sound in the battery pack cap or gray

particles in the battery pack, do not use the headlamp. See

the warranty and return policy for more information.

Battery Power Meter

Multicolored LED

*Capacity percentage is the minimum expected remaining

power needed to operate the Maxbright LED in high mode at

0° C.

The purpose of the battery power meter is to give you a

general idea of the remaining burn time. Switching modes can

create an abrupt change in battery voltage which may cause

the indicator to change color. Once the color turns yellow, the

burn time remaining depends on the typical discharge curve

for the type of batteries you are using. After the light has been

turned off, the battery voltage might temporarily increase,

causing the battery power meter to temporarily display an

artificially higher setting.

When the light is off, the battery power meter will continue to

blink for 24 hours to indicate the current status of the

batteries. After 24 hours with no activity, the battery power

meter will turn off to conserve battery power. When the light

is turned on again, it will resume functioning.

Low Battery Signaling During Use

In addition to displaying red on the battery power meter, when

there are approximately 20 minutes of run time remaining, the

Apex will blink three times in rapid succession.

You can then decide to stay at your current light level or switch

to a lower light level, which may cause battery voltage to rise

enough that the battery power meter transitions back to yellow.

When the battery power meter returns to red, the light will blink

again to alert you.

Circuitry

The Apex uses a sophisticated circuit to control the light. Under

normal circumstances, the metal heatsink will sufficiently cool

the electronics and protect the LEDs from damage. Should the

internal temperature of the light get too hot, a backup

temperature protection circuit will activate and gradually

decrease the light output until the temperature is within the

specified limits.

The Apex will automatically turn off after 12 hours of inactivity.

Any button press during the 12 hour period will reset the auto-

off timer.

Never attempt to disassemble the lamp housing. It is sealed

to protect the components from water and there are no user-

serviceable parts inside. Disassembly will void your warranty!

To keep the heatsink at peak performance, keep the heatsink

and plastic cover free of obstructions (mud and dirt). Do not

remove the heatsink cover—it is there to protect you from the

high temperature of the heatsink during operation. If the heatsink

cover is damaged or broken under normal use, do not use the

headlamp. See the warranty and return policy for more

information.

Power Consumption

The Apex uses a current-controlled circuit that maintains

constant light output as long as the batteries have sufficient

voltage. Constant burn time is dependant on the battery type,

LEDs, and light level selected.

The Ultrabright LEDs provide the maximum level of wide-angle

flood light for task work and the Maxbright will provide a tightly

focused spotlight for distance illumination.

Trouble Shooting

If the Apex fails to light:

• Check the batteries for proper installation.

• Inspect the cable for damage.

If the Apex does not seem to change brightness levels:

• The battery voltage may be too low to switch to a

brighter setting. This condition is normal for a regulated

LED/current-controlled circuit. You are most likely to

experience this issue in the Maxbright LED mode. Install

new batteries and recheck the modes.

• In extreme heat conditions the internal temperature

of the light may be too hot and the LED temperature

protection circuit may have activated. Allow the light

to cool and try again.

USA– Lifetime, International 10 year Warranty

Princeton Tec reserves the right to change product specifications

without notice.

Return Policy

If your light fails to operate, follow these simple steps:

1) Check batteries. Replace if necessary.

Burn time is the total time that the headlamp produces a minimum of 0.25 lux at 2 meters.

0.25 lux is about the equivalent of a full moon on a clear night. Regulated burn time is

less than overall burn time.
