11. Maintenance and cleaning It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.
