Unpacking Instructions

Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box and packing.

AC Power

To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart. A fixture’s listed current rating is its average

current draw under normal conditions. All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the

rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before

 

applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the

 

fixture’s requirement. Check the fixture or device carefully to make sure that

 

if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct line voltage

 

you will use.

Warning!

Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. All

 

fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
