4. Setup and Installation

1. Prepare the Surface: Clean the desired installation surface thoroughly. Ensure it is dry, smooth, and free of dust, oil, or grease for optimal adhesion.
2. Measure and Cut (Optional): If a shorter length is required, locate the designated cutting marks on the LED strip. These are typically indicated by a copper pad and a scissor icon. Cut only at these marks. Warning: Cutting at any other point will damage the strip permanently.
3. Apply the LED Strip: Carefully peel off the protective backing from the adhesive tape on the back of the LED strip. Press the strip firmly onto the prepared surface, ensuring even contact along its entire length.
4. Connect the Power Adapter: Connect the LED strip's connector to the power adapter's output. Then, plug the power adapter into a standard electrical outlet (220-240V).
5. Remote Control Battery: The remote control comes with a pre-installed CR 2035 button cell battery. If the remote does not respond, check if the battery tab needs to be removed or if the battery needs replacement.

5. Operating Instructions

The Grundig RGB LED Light Strip is controlled using the included infrared remote control. Ensure the remote is pointed towards the receiver on the LED strip's power cable for proper function.

  • SMOOTH: Gradually changes between colors.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Ensure the power is off and unplugged before cleaning. Gently wipe the LED strip with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Remote Control Battery Replacement: If the remote control stops responding, the CR 2035 button cell battery may need replacement. Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote, remove the old battery, and insert a new one with the correct polarity (+ side up).
• Storage: If storing the LED strip for an extended period, ensure it is clean and dry. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
