Stainless Steel Face Ring Assembly Instructions - Pentair Underwater Light AmerQuartz Owner's Manual

Replace the lamp with a similar type and wattage. Failure to replace the lamp with the same type of lamp will damage
the light assembly and may cause an electrical hazard resulting in death or serious injury to pool users, installers, or
others due to electrical shock, and may also cause damage to property.
Always install a new lens gasket (part number 79101601) whenever disassembling the light. Failure to do so may permit
water to leak into the assembly which could cause:
(a) an electrical hazard resulting in death or serious injury to pool users, installers, or others due to electrical shock., or
(b) breakage of the lamp or lens, which likewise could result in serious injury to pool users, installers, or bystanders, or in
damage to property.
3. To remove light assembly, remove the special pilot screw at top of face ring, remove light assembly from niche, and
place assembly on deck.
Be sure to keep the special pilot screw from this underwater light. This screw mounts and electrically grounds the
housing securely to the mounting ring and wet niche. 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.
4. Disassemble light fixture and remove bulb.
a. For double-ended bulbs, push bulb towards spring loaded socket. When the other end of the bulb is clear of
the fixed socket, pivot the bulb out of the fixed socket and remove bulb, see Figure 2.
b. For 2 pin bulbs, pull bulb straight out of the socket. When replacing the bulbs in the 12-volt lights,
ALWAYS replace both bulbs at the same time, see Figure 2.
Be sure the power is OFF before installing or removing lamp. Allow the lamp to cool before relamping. This light fixture
uses a Quartz Halogen lamp. DO NOT touch the lamp with bare hands: This may severely reduce its life. Use the
plastic furnished with the replacement, a clean rag, or a tissue to eliminate fingerprints from getting on the lamp.
5. Install the new lamp(s).

This may result in serious injury to pool users, installers, or bystanders, or in damage to property.
8. Secure ring to light fixture. See Section IV, Stainless Steel Face
Ring Assembly Instructions.
