Maintenance

Cleaning:

• Always unplug the light from the power outlet before cleaning.
• Wipe the light fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• The light is IP67 waterproof, meaning it is protected against water splashes and dust. However, do not submerge it in water.

Figure 8: The IP67 waterproof rating protects against splashes, but the light should not be submerged.

Storage:

When not in use for an extended period, store the light in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

• Light not turning on: Check if the power adapter is securely plugged into both the light fixture and the electrical outlet. Ensure the power button on the controller is pressed.
• Timer not working correctly: Verify that the desired timer duration (8H, 10H, or 12H) is selected. If issues persist, try unplugging and re-plugging the power to reset the controller.
• Lights too dim or too bright: Use the 'D' and 'N' buttons on the controller to adjust the brightness levels in both daytime and night modes.
• Inconsistent light output: Ensure the light fixture is clean and free from water spots or debris that might obstruct light emission.
