2. Safety Information

• Always disconnect the vehicle's battery before performing any electrical work to prevent electrical shock or short circuits.
• Ensure all wiring connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent moisture ingress and electrical hazards.
• Mount the lights securely to prevent them from becoming loose during vehicle operation, which could cause a hazard.
• Verify that the operating voltage of the lights (10-30V DC) matches your vehicle's electrical system.
• Do not look directly into the light beam when the lights are on, as this can cause eye damage.
• Consult local regulations regarding auxiliary lighting installation and usage on public roads.

3. Package Contents

Upon opening the package, please verify that all components are present and undamaged:

5. Setup & Installation

This section provides general guidelines for installing your Nilight LED Pods. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with vehicle electrical systems.

5.1. Mounting the Lights

1. Choose a Location: Select a mounting location on your vehicle that provides optimal light projection and does not obstruct your primary lighting or vehicle sensors. Ensure the location is sturdy enough to support the lights.
2. Position the Brackets: Use the provided adjustable mounting brackets. These brackets allow for horizontal or vertical mounting without affecting the light's beam pattern.
3. Secure the Lights: Attach the brackets to the desired location using appropriate fasteners (not always included, depending on vehicle type). Then, secure the LED pods to the brackets using the supplied bolts, nuts, and washers. Tighten all fasteners to ensure the lights are firmly in place.
4. Adjust Angle: The brackets allow for angle adjustment. Position the lights to achieve the desired beam direction.

5.2. Wiring Connections

The lights operate on 10-30V DC. A wiring harness (not included with this specific product variant) is typically used for safe and convenient installation, including a switch and fuse.

1. Power Source: Connect the positive wire of the LED pods to a fused 12V or 24V power source (e.g., directly to the battery via a relay and switch, or to an existing auxiliary circuit).
2. Ground Connection: Connect the negative wire of the LED pods to a reliable ground point on the vehicle chassis.
3. Switch Integration: If using a separate switch, ensure it is rated for the current draw of the lights and properly wired into the circuit.
4. EMC Protection: These lights feature built-in EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) to minimize radio interference and flickering.

6. Operating Instructions

Once properly installed and wired, operating the Nilight LED Pods is straightforward:

• Power On/Off: Activate the lights using the connected switch (if applicable).
• Beam Pattern: These lights produce a 10° super spot beam, designed for long-distance illumination.
• Brightness: Each light provides 1300 raw lumens, with an effective lumen output of 948LM, ensuring significant brightness for off-road or auxiliary use.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your LED pods.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the lens and housing with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the lens.
• Inspection: Regularly check mounting hardware for tightness and signs of corrosion. Inspect wiring for any fraying, cracks, or loose connections.
• Waterproof Integrity: The lights are IP67 rated. Ensure the seals remain intact. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at close range to the light seals.
• Heat Dissipation: The aluminum housing is designed for efficient heat dissipation. Ensure the fins are free from excessive dirt or debris that could impede cooling.
