Operating Instructions
Motion Sensor Functionality
The Konstsmide Parma 7235-600 is equipped with an integrated motion sensor (PIR sensor) that detects movement within its range and activates the light.
Image: A detailed close-up of the motion sensor unit positioned at the bottom of the Konstsmide Parma 7235-600 outdoor wall light. This sensor is responsible for detecting movement and activating the light.
- Detection Range: The motion sensor has a detection range of up to 8 meters and a detection angle of 180 degrees.
- Illumination Duration: The light will remain on for a duration adjustable between 5 seconds and 8 minutes after motion is detected.
- Adjustments: The motion sensor typically has adjustable settings for sensitivity (detection range) and time delay (illumination duration). These adjustment dials are usually located on the sensor unit itself. Refer to the markings on the sensor for specific adjustments.
- Placement Considerations: For optimal performance, ensure the motion sensor is not obstructed and is positioned to cover the desired detection area. Avoid placing it near heat sources or areas with constant movement (e.g., busy roads) that could trigger false activations.
Manual Override (if applicable)
Some motion sensor lights allow for a manual override to keep the light on continuously. This is typically achieved by quickly switching the light switch OFF and ON twice. Consult a qualified electrician if you require this functionality and it is not clearly indicated on the product or its packaging.
Maintenance
- Cleaning:
- Always switch off the power supply before cleaning.
- Clean the fixture regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
- Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the finish or acrylic glass.
- Gently wipe the motion sensor lens to ensure clear detection.
- Bulb Replacement:
- Ensure the power is off and the bulb has cooled completely.
- Carefully remove the protective glass cover (if applicable).
- Unscrew the old E27 bulb and replace it with a new E27 incandescent bulb (max 75W).
- Reattach the glass cover securely.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the fixture for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. If any issues are found, consult a qualified electrician.
