5. Operating Instructions
The Beghelli BEG4103 emergency light operates automatically. When main power is present, the unit charges its internal battery (if applicable) and remains in standby mode. Upon a power failure, the light will automatically switch to emergency mode, providing illumination from its internal power source.
5.1. Functional Test (Touch Control)
The fixture features a "Tactile" control method, which typically refers to a test button. To perform a functional test:
- Ensure the main power supply to the fixture is active.
- Locate the touch-sensitive area or test button on the fixture.
- Briefly press or touch the control. The emergency light should illuminate for a short period (e.g., 3-5 seconds) to confirm battery and lamp functionality.
- Release the control. The light should return to standby mode.
Regular functional tests (e.g., monthly) are recommended to ensure the emergency light is operating correctly.
6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your emergency light.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure power is disconnected before cleaning.
- Battery Check: For emergency lights with internal batteries, it is recommended to perform an annual discharge test. Disconnect the main power supply to the fixture and allow it to operate in emergency mode until the battery is fully discharged. Reconnect power and allow the battery to recharge for at least 24 hours. This helps maintain battery health.
- LEDs: The integrated LED light source is designed for long life and is generally not user-replaceable. If the LEDs fail, the entire fixture may require replacement or professional servicing.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the fixture for any signs of physical damage, loose connections, or discoloration.
