Setup and Installation
This section outlines the steps for installing your Ledvion Round LED Ground Spot. Ensure all safety instructions are followed.

- Electrical Connection:
WARNING: Disconnect power at the main circuit breaker before proceeding. The ground spot comes with a 1-meter connection cable (3 * 1.5 mm²) without a plug. Connect this cable to your main power supply using appropriate waterproof connectors (e.g., IP68 T-connector or straight connector, not included). Ensure all connections are secure and sealed to maintain the IP67 rating.

- Insert GU10 Bulb:
Unscrew the top ring of the ground spot to access the GU10 socket. Insert a GU10 LED bulb (max 15W, not included) into the socket. Securely reattach the top ring, ensuring the anti-glare glass is properly seated.

- Position and Secure:
Place the ground spot into the prepared hole. Ensure the top surface is flush with the ground level. Use the provided screws to secure the fixture if necessary, depending on your installation method (e.g., into a mounting base or directly into stable ground).
- Restore Power:
Once installation is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the main circuit breaker. Test the light to ensure it functions correctly.
