5. Operating Instructions
The Pureline LED Pool Replacement Bulb offers multiple colors and light shows, controlled by cycling the power to the bulb.
- Turning On/Off: Use your existing pool light switch to turn the bulb on or off.
- Changing Colors/Light Shows: To cycle through the 7 fixed colors and 9 light shows, simply turn the light switch off and then back on within a short period (typically 1-2 seconds). Each quick toggle will advance to the next color or show.
- Selecting a Specific Color/Show: Once your desired color or light show is displayed, leave the light on for more than 10 seconds to set it. The bulb will remember this setting for the next time it is turned on.
6. Maintenance
The Pureline LED Pool Replacement Bulb is designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance.
- Cleaning: Periodically inspect the pool light fixture for algae or debris buildup. Turn off power before cleaning. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently clean the lens of the fixture. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Seal Integrity: Regularly check the integrity of the fixture's gasket and seals. If any signs of wear, cracking, or leakage are observed, replace the gasket immediately to prevent water intrusion and damage to the bulb.
- Bulb Replacement: With a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, frequent bulb replacement is not expected. When replacement is eventually needed, follow the installation steps carefully, ensuring power is off and a new waterproof gasket is used.
