FAQs

Can I install this in a shower area?

Yes, its IP65 rating means it is protected against water jets, making it suitable for wet rooms and bathrooms.

How do I change the light colour?

There is a selection switch located on the LED gear tray inside the fixture; you can change this at any time during maintenance.

Will the microwave sensor work through walls?

Microwave sensors can sometimes detect movement through thin walls or glass; you may need to adjust the sensitivity dial to prevent unwanted triggering.

Does it require a special battery for the emergency mode?

The emergency battery is included with the unit and is designed to recharge automatically during normal operation.

What is the diameter of the unit?

The unit has a diameter of 36cm and a projection of 9.4cm.

Troubleshooting

Light stays on constantly

Adjust the sensitivity or time settings on the internal microwave sensor module.

Emergency indicator light is not glowing

Check that the battery pack is properly connected and that the mains power is reaching the unit.

Light flickering or not turning on

Verify the CCT switch is firmly set to one of the three temperature positions; a loose switch can cause intermittent connectivity.
