1. Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient installation, operation, and maintenance of your DEKO-LIGHT SMD-68 Dimmable LED Recessed Ceiling Light. The SMD-68 series offers high performance with an integrated, dimmable power supply (230V direct connection), eliminating the need for separate GU10 sockets or retrofit solutions. Please read these instructions thoroughly before installation and retain them for future reference.
2. Safety Instructions
- Electrical Safety: Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
- Power Disconnection: Always disconnect the main power supply before attempting any installation, maintenance, or repair work.
- Voltage: Ensure the supply voltage matches the product's specified voltage (220-240 V/AC, 50/60 Hz).
- Environment: Do not install in excessively humid or high-temperature environments beyond the specified operating range (-5 to 40 °C).
- Damage: Do not use the product if it is damaged. Contact customer support for assistance.
- Modification: Do not attempt to modify the product. Unauthorized modifications can lead to electric shock, fire, or product damage.
3. Package Contents
Please check the package for the following items:
- 1 x DEKO-LIGHT SMD-68 Dimmable LED Recessed Ceiling Light
No additional components are included unless specified on the product packaging.
4. Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your recessed ceiling light:
- Prepare the Installation Area: Ensure the power supply to the installation area is switched off at the main circuit breaker.
- Create Cutout: Using the specified cutout diameter of 68mm, create a circular opening in the ceiling. Ensure there is sufficient space above the ceiling for the light's installation depth of 41.3mm.
- Wiring: Connect the light's integrated power supply directly to the 230V AC mains using appropriate terminal connections. Ensure correct polarity (Live, Neutral, Earth if applicable).
- Insert Light: Gently push the recessed light into the cutout. The spring clips on the sides will secure the light in place.
- Test: Restore power and test the light's functionality, including dimming.

6. Maintenance
The DEKO-LIGHT SMD-68 requires minimal maintenance:
- Cleaning: Ensure the power is off before cleaning. Wipe the light with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- No User-Serviceable Parts: The LED light source is integrated and not replaceable by the user. Do not attempt to open or repair the fixture.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your DEKO-LIGHT SMD-68, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Light does not turn on:
- Check if the main power supply is connected and switched on.
- Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct.
- Ensure the wall switch is in the 'ON' position.
- Light flickers or dims incorrectly:
- Ensure you are using a compatible dimmer switch (leading-edge or trailing-edge).
- Check for loose wiring connections.
- The dimmer may be overloaded; ensure the total wattage of connected lights does not exceed the dimmer's capacity.
If the problem persists, contact a qualified electrician or Deko-Light customer support.
