Important Safety Information

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals that are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to http://www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Always turn off power to the fixture at the circuit breaker or wall switch before installing or removing the bulb.
Do not use this bulb with dimmers unless the dimmer is specifically rated for CFLs. Incompatible dimmers can damage the bulb and void the warranty.
Avoid touching the glass portion of the bulb with bare hands during installation to prevent oil residue, which can shorten bulb life. Use a clean cloth or gloves.
If the bulb breaks, follow local guidelines for mercury cleanup and disposal. CFL bulbs contain a small amount of mercury. Visit epa.gov/cfl for more information on safe cleanup and disposal.

Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for safe and proper installation of your Sunlite CFL bulb:

Turn Off Power: Ensure the power to the light fixture is completely turned off at the circuit breaker or wall switch before beginning installation.
Cool Down: If replacing an existing bulb, allow the old bulb to cool completely before removal to prevent burns.
Install Bulb: Carefully screw the Sunlite 00632-SU Mini Spiral CFL Bulb into the E26 medium base socket. Turn clockwise until it is snug, but do not overtighten.
Restore Power: Once the bulb is securely installed, restore power to the fixture at the circuit breaker or wall switch.

This bulb is suitable for use in various indoor fixtures, including ceiling fixtures, lamps, pendants, and wall fixtures.

Operating Instructions

Operating your Sunlite CFL bulb is straightforward:

Once installed and power is restored, simply use the fixture's switch to turn the bulb on or off.
CFL bulbs may take a short period (typically a few seconds to a minute) to reach full brightness, especially in colder environments. This is normal operation.

Maintenance

The Sunlite 00632-SU CFL bulb requires minimal maintenance due to its long lifespan:

Cleaning: To clean the bulb, ensure the power is off and the bulb is cool to the touch. Gently wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
Disposal: When the bulb reaches the end of its life, it should be recycled properly. CFL bulbs contain a small amount of mercury. Do not dispose of them in regular household trash. Check with your local waste management facility or recycling centers for appropriate recycling options in your area.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Sunlite CFL bulb, consider the following:

Bulb does not light up:
- Ensure the bulb is securely screwed into the socket.
- Verify that the power to the fixture is on and that the wall switch is functioning correctly.
- Check your home's circuit breaker to ensure it has not tripped.
- Test the bulb in another working fixture to rule out a faulty fixture.
Flickering:
- Some flickering may occur during initial warm-up, especially in cooler temperatures. This is typically temporary.
- Ensure the bulb is not used with an incompatible dimmer switch.
- Persistent flickering could indicate a faulty bulb or an issue with the fixture's wiring.
Reduced Brightness:
- CFLs may experience a slight, gradual reduction in brightness over their very long lifespan.
- If the bulb is significantly dimmer than expected shortly after installation, ensure it is receiving adequate power.
