Installation Instructions
- Prepare the Mounting Surface: Choose a flat, stable surface for mounting. Ensure there is sufficient space for the light and its wiring.

- Drill Holes: Carefully drill pilot holes for the mounting screws. Ensure not to drill too deep to avoid damaging underlying structures.
- Wiring:
- Disconnect all power to the circuit before beginning wiring.
- Connect the positive (+) wire from the power source to the positive wire of the light.
- Connect the negative (-) wire from the power source to the negative wire of the light.
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits and corrosion, especially in marine environments.
- If using a PWM LED dimmer, connect it according to the dimmer's instructions.
- Mount the Light: Secure the light fixture to the mounting surface using the provided screws. Do not overtighten.
- Test Functionality: Restore power to the circuit and test the light's operation.
For detailed wiring diagrams or specific marine electrical standards, consult a professional marine electrician.
Operating Instructions
The Lumitec NevisLT Light is designed for straightforward operation.
- Power On/Off: The light is controlled by an external switch connected to its power supply. Toggle the switch to turn the light on or off.
- Dimming (if applicable): If connected to a compatible PWM LED dimmer, adjust the dimmer control to vary the light intensity.
- Color Selection (if applicable for multi-color models): This specific model (101296) is a white light. For multi-color Nevis models, cycling the power switch typically changes the color output.
The NevisLT provides a wide 180-degree spread of bright, even light, making it suitable for illuminating large areas.
