Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the puck lights with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Battery Replacement: When lights dim or the remote becomes unresponsive, replace all 3 AA batteries in the puck light. For the remote, replace its button cell battery if needed. Ensure correct polarity.
- Storage: If storing the lights for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
- Indoor Use Only: These lights are designed for indoor and dry locations only. Do not expose to water or high humidity.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | Batteries are dead or incorrectly installed. | Replace batteries with new ones, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). |
| Remote control is not working. | Remote battery is dead or insulation tab is still present. Remote is too far or not pointed at the lights. | Remove the insulation tab. Replace the remote battery. Ensure remote is within range and pointed towards the lights' infrared sensors. |
| Lights are out of sync or not responding uniformly to the remote. | Interference or lights are not receiving the signal simultaneously. | Ensure the remote is pointed directly at the lights. Try operating lights individually by tapping, then use the remote for group control. If issues persist, try resetting by removing and reinserting batteries in all lights. |
| Lights dim quickly. | Low quality batteries or frequent use at high brightness. | Use high-quality alkaline batteries. Reduce brightness or use timer functions to conserve battery life. |
| Adhesive pads are not holding. | Surface was not clean or dry, or insufficient pressure applied during installation. | Clean the surface thoroughly. Use new adhesive pads and apply firm pressure for an extended period. Consider using the screw mounting option for a more secure hold. |
