2. Safety Instructions
- Always disconnect power before installation, maintenance, or repair.
- Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local wiring regulations.
- Ensure the power supply voltage matches the floodlight's requirements (220-240V AC).
- Do not look directly into the LED light source when it is illuminated, as this may cause eye strain or damage.
- The floodlight is rated IP65 for outdoor use, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. However, avoid submerging the unit.
- Do not modify the product in any way. Unauthorized modifications may void the warranty and pose safety risks.
- Keep flammable materials away from the floodlight during operation.
3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Mounting the Floodlight
The HOFTRONIC Stratos floodlight comes with a robust aluminum bracket for versatile mounting. It can be securely mounted on walls, ceilings, or other stable surfaces. Ensure the mounting surface can support the weight of the floodlight (5 kg).
- Mark the desired mounting position for the bracket.
- Drill appropriate holes for the mounting screws (not included).
- Securely attach the bracket to the surface.
- Attach the floodlight to the bracket using the provided hardware.
- Adjust the tilt angle of the floodlight and the PIR sensor as needed. The floodlight offers a 175° tilt angle for optimal light direction.

3.2 Electrical Connection
The floodlight is supplied with a 15 cm connection cable. Ensure proper wiring according to the color codes:
- Brown wire: Live (L)
- Blue wire: Neutral (N)
- Yellow/Green wire: Earth (E)
Use a suitable waterproof junction box for outdoor connections to maintain the IP65 rating.

3.3 PIR Sensor Adjustment
The integrated PIR motion sensor has a 120° detection angle and a detection range of up to 10 meters. The light sensitivity (dusk-to-dawn threshold) is adjustable from 5-2000 lux. Adjust the sensor's position and settings to optimize detection for your specific area.

4. Operating Instructions
Once properly installed and powered, the HOFTRONIC Stratos LED Floodlight operates automatically based on its integrated motion sensor and dusk-to-dawn switch.
- Dusk-to-Dawn Function: The floodlight will only activate when the ambient light level falls below the set lux threshold (adjustable).
- Motion Detection: When motion is detected within the sensor's range and the ambient light is low enough, the floodlight will turn on.
- Illumination Duration: The duration for which the light stays on after motion detection is typically adjustable via a control knob on the sensor (refer to the sensor unit for specific controls).
5. Maintenance
The HOFTRONIC Stratos LED Floodlight is designed for minimal maintenance due to its durable aluminum housing and IP65 rating.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the floodlight's surface and sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cable and housing for any signs of damage. If damage is found, disconnect power immediately and have the unit inspected by a qualified professional.
- Heat Dissipation: The floodlight features an improved heatsink for efficient heat dissipation. Ensure that the heatsink area at the back of the unit is not obstructed to maintain optimal performance and lifespan.
