2. Safety Information
Please read all safety warnings and instructions carefully before installing or operating the LED strip. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
- Always disconnect power at the main circuit breaker before installation or maintenance.
- This product is designed for 24V DC operation. Ensure you use a compatible 24V LED driver (NOT INCLUDED). Connecting to an incorrect voltage will damage the strip.
- Do not bend the LED strip sharply or twist it excessively, as this may damage the internal circuitry.
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits.
- Do not submerge the LED strip in water unless explicitly rated for such use. This product has an IP65 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, but not full submersion.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Do not cover the LED strip with materials that may impede heat dissipation, as this can lead to overheating and reduced lifespan.

3.2. Installation Steps (Surface Mounted)
- Preparation: Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Measure the desired length for your LED strip. Remember the strip can be cut at 50mm intervals.
- Cutting (if necessary): If shortening the strip, identify the scissor icon marks located every 50mm along the strip. Carefully cut the strip only at these designated marks using sharp scissors. After cutting, apply the provided end caps to the cut end(s) to maintain the IP65 rating.
- Mounting Bracket Placement: Position the mounting brackets along the measured path. Mark the screw holes with a pencil. Ensure even spacing for secure installation.
- Secure Brackets: Drill pilot holes if necessary and secure the mounting brackets using the provided screws.
- Insert LED Strip: Carefully press the LED strip into the secured mounting brackets. Ensure it sits snugly and evenly.
- Connect to Driver: Connect the 2.5m driver connection cable (with JB4 connector) from the LED strip to a compatible 24V DC LED driver (NOT INCLUDED). The JB4 connector ensures correct polarity.
- Power On: Once all connections are secure and verified, restore power to the circuit.
Note: For recessed mounting, appropriate channels or profiles (not included) may be required.
4. Operating Instructions
The Sensio Flexible LED Strip Roll is designed for straightforward operation once installed.
- Power On/Off: The LED strip will illuminate when power is supplied to the connected 24V DC driver. Control power via the switch connected to your driver's input.
- Dimming: This LED strip is dimmable. To utilize the dimming feature, you must connect it to a compatible Sensio dimmable receiver and dimmer switch (both sold separately). Follow the instructions provided with your dimmable receiver and switch for proper setup and operation.
- Color Temperature: This specific model provides a Warm White light at 3000K. Other models are available in Natural White (4000K) and Cool White (5000K).

5. Maintenance
The Sensio Flexible LED Strip Roll requires minimal maintenance to ensure long-lasting performance.
- Cleaning: Ensure the power is off before cleaning. Gently wipe the surface of the LED strip with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the strip and its connections for any signs of damage, wear, or loose connections. Address any issues promptly.
- Heat Dissipation: Ensure the LED strip is not covered or obstructed in a way that prevents proper heat dissipation. Good airflow contributes to the longevity of the LEDs.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Sensio Flexible LED Strip, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| LED strip does not light up. | No power supply; incorrect voltage; loose connection; faulty driver; damaged strip. | Check power source. Ensure 24V DC driver is connected and functional. Verify all connections are secure. Test with a known good driver. Inspect strip for visible damage. |
| LED strip flickers or dims inconsistently. | Unstable power supply; incompatible dimmer/driver; loose connection; overloaded driver. | Check power supply stability. Ensure dimmer/driver compatibility. Secure all connections. Verify driver wattage capacity is sufficient for the strip length. |
| Portion of the strip is not lighting up. | Damage to that section of the strip; faulty connection within the strip. | Inspect the non-illuminated section for physical damage. If cut, ensure end caps are properly sealed. If damage is internal, the strip may need replacement. |
