3. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly install your under cabinet lighting system:

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the installation surface (e.g., under cabinet, shelf) is clean, dry, and free from grease or dirt. This will ensure optimal adhesion of the LED strips.
  2. Measure and Cut (Optional): The LED strips are cuttable. If shorter lengths are required, cut the strips only at the designated cut marks (usually indicated by copper pads).
  3. Connect Strips: Use the provided short or long connectors to link the LED strips together, forming the desired layout. Ensure proper alignment of the pins.
  4. Attach LED Strips: Peel off the protective backing from the adhesive tape on the back of each LED strip. Carefully press the strips onto the prepared surface, ensuring firm contact along the entire length.
  5. Connect Controller and Power: Connect the LED strips to the controller, and then connect the 12V power adapter to the controller. Plug the power adapter into a standard electrical outlet.
