6. Maintenance

The Silverlite Legental LED Mini Puck bulb requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Cleaning: Always turn off the power to the fixture before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the bulb and fixture. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
• No User-Serviceable Parts: The bulb contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the bulb.

7. Troubleshooting

• Flickering: If the bulb flickers, ensure it is not connected to a dimmer switch or a ceiling fan with an internal device that controls both speed and light on the same wire (e.g., some Hunter ceiling fans). This bulb is non-dimmable. If dimming functionality is required, please purchase a dimmable version of the bulb.
• Bulb Not Lighting:
  1. Check that the power to the fixture is on at the circuit breaker and the wall switch.
  2. Ensure the bulb is correctly inserted and securely locked into the GU24 socket.
  3. If the issue persists, try the bulb in a different compatible fixture to rule out a fixture problem.
