juwel MultiLux LED Manual

MultiLux LED light unit

The MultiLux LED is a high-performance LED light unit for your aquarium. The replaceable LED tubes enable maximum lighting of your aquarium and ensure an energy saving of up to 50% compared to T5 fluorescent lamps.
The light unit itself is waterproof and therefore allows you to maintain your aquarium with full lighting.

Installation of the MultiLux LED light unit

The water tightness can only be guaranteed if the tube holders have been firmly connected to their sockets and we recommend that you check this prior.
The MultiLux LED light unit may now be placed on the top frame of the aquarium and connected to the power supply. Then, attach the flaps and close the aquarium.
In that context, ensure that the top frame of the aquarium and the guide rails of the cover hatches are free of foreign objects, e.g. sand or gravel.

Notice:
If a defect occurs on the MultiLux LED light unit, it switches itself off automatically.
If a replacement of both LED tubes does not make the light function again, we recommend that you purchase a new light unit, which is available as a spare part.

Maintenance and Care of the MultiLux LED light unit

The JUWEL Aquarium MultiLux LED light unit requires little care and maintenance. Only clean the frame with a soft cloth and warm water.

Changing the LED tubes:
In order to fault-free functionality of the light unit, it is absolutely necessary to disconnect the power plug prior to replacing the LED tubes!
Only reconnect the MultiLux LED to the power supply after this!

1. Unscrew the tube holders and slide them over the LED tube.
2. Remove the LED tubes from the fittings.
3. Prepare the new LED tube for use by sliding the tube holders over the tube.
4. Insert the new LED tube into the fitting as shown in the illustration. Check the correct position.
5. Screw the tube holders on tightly.
6. Switch the light unit back on.

Safety notices:

• The connection line may not be repaired. Always replace the entire light unit in case of damage.

JUWEL End Caps
We recommend that the fitting rings be replaced every year to make sure that your JUWEL Aquarium light unit remains watertight. The fluorescent tubes should also be replaced when the T8 or T5 light units are being used.
All spare parts for the maintenance of your JUWEL light unit are available as original JUWEL Aquarium spare parts from your specialist dealer.

Notice: LED tubes

• The energy-saving LED DAY light medium with bright, invigorating light, ensures brilliant illumination of the aquarium and promotes plant growth at the same time.
• The energy-saving LED NATURE light medium produces a warm and natural light. The special light spectrum of the lighting medium promotes plant photosynthesis whilst highlighting the green colours in your aquarium.
• The energy-saving LED COLOUR light medium creates a stimulating red light in your aquarium. The special spectrum particularly emphasizes the many red and blue tones of your fish and plants.
• The energy-saving LED BLUE light medium was specially developed to simulate the lighting conditions on coral reefs at depths of around six metres. Corals are specifically encouraged to grow thanks to the special spectrum of light that LED BLUE produces.
• The energy-saving LED MARINE light medium impresses by being particularly bright. The special spectrum from the LED MARINE produces a bright white light that simulates the lighting conditions found in coral reefs.

The energy-saving LED light media in your MultiLux LED light unit helps you to achieve up to 50% energy saving compared with T5 tubes. The LED lighting media are available as an original JUWEL spare part.
