Hive Light
Dimmable smart E14 bulb.
Getting started:
1 Add your Hive Light
You can do this using your Hive app.
Using the Hive app:
- Open the Hive app on your smartphone or tablet. You may be asked to log in.
- Tap on Manage > Install a device > Install Hive devices > Other Hive Devices > Start.
2 Fit the bulb into the light fitting and switch the light on
Ensure the wall switch for the light is switched off before fitting the bulb. Your Hive Light is fitted in the same way traditional household bulbs are.
Once fitted, switch the light on at the wall and the bulb will then flash on and off to show that it is searching for your Hub.
Once your Hive Light appears on the screen, it will flash once more to confirm it’s connected.
You can now name it and press Save to complete setup.
3 That’s it!
You’ve finished setting up your Hive Light and you can now control it remotely.
Remember: To turn your Hive Light on or off remotely, it must be switched on at the wall.
Your Hive Light should not be dimmed using a wall mounted dimmer switch as it may cause buzzing or flickering.
Use in dry location only.
Usage
Your Hive Light is designed for indoor use only. Not suitable for emergency lighting.
Maintenance
Disconnect your Hive Light before cleaning and keep it away from water and other liquids at all times. The Hive Light does not contain any serviceable parts so do not attempt to open it.
