IMPORTANT WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualified
electrician if you cannot verify that the circuit is protected by a GFCI.
light fixture must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground-
fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and
should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI
should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI
fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the
light without the test button being pushed, a ground current is following, indicating the
possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this light. Disconnect the light fixture and have
the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using. Locate your pool
so that the wall is at least 10 feet from all electrical receptacles and at least 20 feet from all
receptacles not protected by a GFCI. It is also very important to locate the pool so that it is
not under any electrical wiring, that is less than 18 feet vertically above the pool wall and
within an area located 10 feet outside the pool walls. The pool must also never be located
under any lighting fixture or within five (5) feet measured horizontally from any fixture
mounted less than five (5) feet vertically above the pool water level.
NOTICE: The external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire cannot be replaced; if
the cord is damaged, the luminaire shall be destroyed.
