Warning
Do not touch the product with wet hands.
Doing so may result in electric shock.
Make sure that the product is free of moisture
or any liquid. Exposure to water may result in
fire or electric shock.
This product generates high temperatures.
Do not touch the product while it is turned on or
immediately after it is turned off, or burning may
result. Provide cooling with a fan or other ventilation
if the product is to be used in a closed space.
Caution
Please use designated power sources with
stable voltage. Sharing a power source with
inverters, motors, etc. may cause malfunction.
Make sure that connected lighting is within the
power rating of this product. Not doing so may
cause product failure.
Do not bundle product cables with high-voltage
lines or power lines. Doing so may cause
the product to malfunction. Keep the product
cables as far away from such lines as possible.
Before moving the product, disconnect cables.
Damaging the cables may result in f ire or
electric shock.
Do not bend or jam cables when wiring the
product. Doing so may cause product failure.
Make sure to hold and pull from the plugs when
disconnecting the cables. Not pulling from the
plugs may damage the cable and result in fire
or electric shock.
Use a dry cloth to remove dust or other foreign
matter from the plug electrodes. Failure to do
so may result in fire.
Make sure that the length of the extension
cable is less than 5 m. If the extension cable is
longer than 5 m, the light intensity will decrease
due to the DC resistance of the cable.
