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.
