• This product may cause interference to radio equipment and should not be installed near
maritime safety communications equipment or other critical navigation or communication
equipment operating between 0.45 - 30 MHz.
• DO NOT use the system when either its lamp or its power cord is damaged. Replace the
power cord only with original certified cords. Contact your local retail store if the power cord
is damaged.
• DO NOT modify cords. Modifications to the cords can lead to unwanted electromagnetic
effects which makes the product not comply with legal requirements.
• Avoid coiled cords. Coiled cords may lead to electromagnetic interference.
• DO NOT use the fixture near flammable, explosive or reactive substances.
• Always install lamp before connecting the fixture to the main power supply.
• Allow 30 minute cool down before handling lamp.
• Allow 30 minute cool down before handling reflector.
• Wear safety glasses and provided glove when installing lamps or servicing the system.
• DO NOT expose any component of this lighting system to condensing humidity, fog or direct
spray to avoid breakage and/or thermal shock.
• Make sure system is properly supported with supporting chains and/or hooks.
• DO NOT pull the cord to unplug the system, pull the plug only.
• DO NOT lift the system by any cords.
• DO NOT hang system by cord.
• DO NOT mount luminaire directly touching any surface (maintain at least 3" from the
top of the luminaire to mounting surface).
• DO NOT operate in ambient temperatures above 95°F/35°C. Note: Maintain the
temperature within the growing space below 86°F/30°C, otherwise ventilation/cooling
system may be required.
• Note: Until the lamp has achieved at least 10 hours of operation, the lamp should never be
turned off sooner than 2 minutes after starting lamp. The lamp may require 10-30 minutes
cooling time before restarting.
• Before you dim or boost your DE lamp, make sure that you run it at nominal value (100%)
for at least 100 hours to stabilize the lamp. Failing to so do may lead to sub-optimal light
