Clean the resin casing with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is on at the mains. Verify all electrical connections are secure and correctly wired. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Light flickers intermittently

Inspect wiring connections for looseness. If the issue persists, the integrated LED may be faulty and require replacement of the unit.

Visible corrosion after prolonged use

Contact Firstlight customer support. While rare due to the anti-corrosion guarantee, inspect the specific area and provide details for warranty claim assessment.

Water ingress observed

Turn off power immediately. Check the seal around the diffuser and mounting points for damage or improper fitting. Ensure the IP54 rating is not compromised. Consult an electrician.
