6. Operating Instructions

The LEONLITE 5CCT Hardscape Light features selectable color temperatures to suit your preference and environment.

6.1 Changing Color Temperature (CCT)

The color temperature can be changed by cycling through the available options. This is typically done via a switch or button on the fixture or by rapidly turning the power off and on from the transformer, depending on the specific model's design for CCT selection. Refer to the product's specific CCT selection mechanism, often a small button or a power cycle sequence.

• The available color temperatures are: 2200K Amber Warm, 2700K Soft White, 3000K Warm White, 4000K Cool White, and 5000K Daylight.
• The light includes a memory function, which means the selected color temperature will remain the same even after the power is turned off and on.
