5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Due to its IP67 waterproof rating, the light can withstand splashes. For cleaning, gently wipe the fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the power adapter in water.
• Heat Dissipation: The 1.2mm aluminum alloy shell is designed for efficient heat dissipation. Ensure the light is not covered or placed in an enclosed space that could hinder airflow, to maintain optimal performance and lifespan.
• Regular Checks: Periodically check the power cable and connections for any signs of wear or damage.

6. Troubleshooting

• Light Not Turning On:
  • Check if the power adapter is securely plugged into both the light fixture and the wall outlet.
  • Ensure the power outlet is functional by testing it with another device.
  • Verify that the power button on the controller has been pressed.
• Flickering Light:
  • The VEVOR Aquarium Light is designed to be flicker-free. If flickering occurs, check all connections.
  • Try plugging the light into a different power outlet.
  • If the issue persists, contact customer support.

8. User Tips

• Check Power Plug: Before purchasing or using, confirm that the power adapter's plug type (e.g., EU, US) is compatible with your local electrical outlets to avoid the need for additional converters.
• Optimal Placement: Position the light centrally over your aquarium for the most uniform illumination. Adjust the extendable brackets to ensure a snug and stable fit.
