Before you start:
• Always ensure that the vessel's power source and battery are disconnected or isolated prior to installation.
• A qualified professional should carry out both the electrical and mechanical installation.
• For best underwater illumination, LUMISHORE recommends installation 4" to 12" (100-300mm) below the
minimum load water line.
• Choose a location - The light must be mounted on a flat (not curved) surface. For underwater installs mount
on transom or side hull only.
• A hole will be drilled to allow the cable to be inserted; care must be taken to ensure there is unrestricted
access inside the hull.
• When installing three or more lights, equal spacing 2.5'- 3' is recommended to give a consistent light pool.
• The light is temperature sensitive and must not be located close to the exhaust outlet or other heat source.
• SMX53 Lights operate on 12V or 24V DC. Never connect a light directly to the mains AC voltage, or DC voltage
other than that specified.
• For Installation on boats up to 15m (50 ft). Isolation kit (39-0203) MUST be used on boats with conductive
hulls.
• The light cables can be extended. Ensure the correct cable gauge is used to avoid issues with voltage drop.
Follow ABYC recommendations for no more than 3% voltage drop at 12V, and 10% at 24V. Consult a qualified
electrical installer, or contact Lumishore for further information.
• Ensure the lights are tested, and working as expected before the boat goes back in the water. DO NOT switch lights
on when covered.
