Operating Instructions

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power, loose connection, damaged adapter. | Check power outlet. Ensure all connections (light to controller, controller to adapter, adapter to wall) are secure. Inspect adapter for damage. |
| Light settings reset after power outage. | This is expected behavior for some modes. | Re-set your desired mode and time after power is restored. The 24/7 mode may need to be re-synchronized with the current time. |
| Suction cups do not hold. | Dirty surface, worn out suction cups. | Clean the glass surface and suction cups thoroughly. If cups are old or damaged, replace them. |
| Light appears dim or colors are off. | Algae buildup on light, incorrect brightness/color setting. | Clean the light bar. Verify brightness and color settings in DIY mode. In 24/7 mode, brightness is automatic. |
