• Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Never connect an LED
  product to dimmer packs, occupancy sensors, timing devices, or other related
  control devices. LED fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit.
• Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not restrict
  fixture ventilation. Allow for some volume of airspace around fixture. Avoid
  covering LED fixtures with insulation, foam, or other material that will
  prevent convection or conduction cooling.
• Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not exceed
  fixtures maximum ambient temperature.
• Only use fixture in its intended location.
• LED products are Polarity Sensitive. Ensure proper Polarity before installation.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): ESD can damage LED fixtures. Personal
  grounding equipment must be worn during all installation or servicing of the unit.
• Do not touch individual electrical components as this can cause ESD,
  shorten lamp life, or alter performance.
