FAQs

What is the minimum and maximum hole diameter for installation?

The VariFit technology allows for installation in hole diameters ranging from 50 mm to 140 mm.

Can I use this panel in my bathroom?

Yes, the panel has an IP44 rating, making it suitable for use in damp rooms like bathrooms.

Do I need a special dimmer switch for the 3-step dimming?

No, the 3-step dimming is activated using a regular commercial light switch by repeatedly switching it on and off.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Product specific warranty information should be checked with the retailer. Typically, Paulmann products come with a standard warranty period.

How do I reset the memory function?

The memory function retains the last setting until the next activation. To reset or change the setting, simply switch the light off and on again, cycling through the dimming levels to reach your desired setting.

What is the color temperature of the light?

The light color temperature is 3000 Kelvin, which is considered warm white.

What is the cavity depth requirement?

For hole diameters larger than 85 mm, a cavity depth of at least 30 mm is needed. For hole diameters larger than 68 mm, a depth of at least 55 mm is needed.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check the main power supply and ensure the light is correctly wired. Verify the wall switch is functioning.

Dimming function not working

Ensure you are using a standard ON/OFF light switch and activating the dimming by repeated switching cycles (ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON). If using a dimmer switch, it may not be compatible with the 3-step dimming feature.

Panel is loose after installation

Re-adjust the VariFit clamping springs to ensure they are firmly gripping the mounting surface. Check if the hole diameter is within the adjustable range (50-140 mm).

Light flickers

Check electrical connections for tightness. Ensure the power supply voltage is stable and within the specified range (230V).
