2. Safety Information

To prevent injury or damage to the product, please adhere to the following safety guidelines:

• Ensure the power supply is disconnected before installation, maintenance, or troubleshooting.
• Use only the provided 24V low voltage power adapter. Using an incompatible power source may damage the lights and pose a safety risk.
• The LED strip lights are IP68 waterproof, suitable for outdoor use and resistant to splashes and rainfall. However, avoid submerging the power adapter or controller in water.
• If the strip is cut, ensure the cut end is properly sealed with glue to maintain its waterproof integrity. Failure to do so will compromise the IP68 rating.
• Do not bend the LED strip sharply or apply excessive force, as this may damage the internal circuitry.

4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of your LED strip lights:

1. Plan Your Layout: Before peeling the adhesive, unroll the strip and lay it out in your desired location to confirm the length and placement. Identify the power source location.
2. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the installation surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Dust, dirt, or moisture can compromise the adhesive backing.
3. Apply the Strip: Carefully peel off the protective film from the adhesive backing and press the LED strip firmly onto the prepared surface. Apply pressure evenly along the strip.
4. Secure with Buckles/Straps: For enhanced stability and long-term outdoor use, utilize the provided mounting buckles and straps. Install buckles at regular intervals (e.g., every 3-4 feet) or as needed to secure the strip, especially on vertical or uneven surfaces.
5. Cutting the Strip (Optional): If the strip is too long, it can be cut at designated cutting marks (usually indicated by a copper pad and a scissor icon). Important: After cutting, apply the provided adhesive glue to the cut end to reseal it and maintain its IP68 waterproof rating. Failure to do so will expose the internal components to moisture.
6. Connect Power: Connect the LED strip to the controller unit, and then connect the controller unit to the 24V power adapter. Ensure all connections are secure. The power adapter interface uses a waterproof cable.
7. Power On: Plug the power adapter into a suitable outdoor-rated electrical outlet.

• Waterproof Integrity: If the strip was cut during installation, regularly inspect the sealed end to ensure the glue remains intact and no moisture has entered. Reapply glue if necessary.
