This is a 4-pack. Depending on the size of your room, you may need additional packs; consult a lighting designer for spacing requirements.
Check all electrical connections at the terminal block to ensure they are secure and correctly wired.
Verify that the spring clips are properly engaged against the back of the ceiling board and that the cutout size is correct.
Inspect the rubber gasket to ensure it is seated correctly and that the unit is flush against the ceiling surface.
For installation, ensure your existing ceiling hole matches the 8.6cm diameter precisely. Because these are fire-rated fittings, never use oversized holes as it will compromise the fire protection capability. Always disconnect the mains power supply before starting any work. If you are not experienced with electrical wiring, it is strongly recommended to hire a qualified electrician to perform the installation. For maintenance, clean the external black trim with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or harsh scouring pads, which could scratch the matte finish or damage the seal. Periodically check the bezel for any signs of loose fitting or water accumulation.
