Attention Installer.
This manual contains important information about the installation, operation and safe use of
this product. This information should be given to the owner/operator of this equipment.
Always disconnect power to the pool light at the circuit breaker before servicing the light. Failure to
do so could result in death or serious injury to installer, serviceman, pool users or others due to
electrical shock.
Never operate this underwater light for more than 10 seconds unless it is totally submerged in water. Without total
submersion, the light assembly will get extremely hot, which may result in serious burns or in breakage of the lamp or
lens. This may result in serious injury to pool users, installers, or bystanders, or in damage to property.
Use only the special pilot screw provided with this underwater light. This screw mounts and electrically
grounds the housing securely to the mounting ring and wet fixture housing. Failure to use the screw
provided could create an electrical hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users,
installers or others due to electrical shock. This procedure can be performed with the water in the pool.
