4.2 Connecting Power
Plug the provided power cord into the light and then into a compatible 110-130V power outlet. Ensure the connection is secure.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Light Spectrum
The TS600 features a full-spectrum LED design, including 730-740nm Red IR, 3200-4200Knm, and 5200-6800Knm spectra. This combination provides optimal light for all plant stages, promoting rapid growth from seed to flower and increasing yield and crop quality. Over 90% of the light energy can be absorbed by plants.

5.2 Recommended Hanging Heights
Adjust the light's height based on the plant's growth stage to optimize light intensity and coverage:
- Seedling Stage: Approximately 24 inches (60 cm) above the plants.
- Vegetative Stage: Approximately 14 inches (36 cm) above the plants.
- Flowering Stage: Approximately 12 inches (30 cm) above the plants.

5.3 Coverage Area
The TS600 is ideal for a 2x2 ft (60x60cm) grow tent, providing uniform light distribution and maximizing plant yield. When paired with a high reflectivity tent, it efficiently harnesses light for robust growth.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
Ensure the light is unplugged and cool before cleaning. Gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
6.2 Heat Dissipation
The TS600 features a high-reflective and noise-free fanless design with aluminum material for efficient heat dissipation. This design reduces heat loss and increases light intensity, allowing plants to receive more energy without the risk of burning.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your MARS HYDRO TS600 LED Grow Light, please refer to the following general advice:
- Light not turning on: Check the power cord connection and ensure the outlet is functional. Verify the voltage is within the specified range.
- Reduced light output: Ensure the light surface is clean and free from dust or debris.
- Overheating: While designed for efficient heat dissipation, ensure adequate airflow around the unit. Do not obstruct the heat sink.
For persistent issues, please contact MARS HYDRO customer support.
