Initial Operation

Carefully read the complete operating manual and the safety instructions before using the
product in order to ensure proper commissioning.
Check the device for damage before using it for the first time. If the device is damaged, do not
operate it and consult an expert or our service team.

Assembly

The assembly and the installation of the device must be carried out by a specialist who is
familiar with the hazards and the relevant regulations. Repairs, operation and maintenance of
the product may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
When choosing a location for your device, make sure to avoid vibration, dust, hot and cold
temperatures and dampness. Furthermore, no powerful transformers or motors must be set up
in the vicinity of the device.
The light effect may only be operated in locations with an ambient temperature of less than
45°C.
The device must be mounted out of normal reach.
Illuminated objects must be at least 0.5m away from the device's light emission. Easily-
flammable materials such as decorative fabrics must have at least a distance of 1m to the
device. Otherwise such objects might catch fire!
When mounting the product make sure that the power cord is neither jammed nor damaged by
sharp edges.
During installation and service work, the area underneath the place of installation must be
cordoned off.
The installation surface or mounting fixture needs to be designed in a way, that it can take 10
times its load capacity for at least 1 hour without permanent damaging deformation.
It is also essential that the device is secured by means of a second safety restraint that is
independent of the actual mounting supports when installing it in an elevated position. If the
main supports fail, no part of the installation should be able to fall down.
During mounting, all the relevant regulations (in particular BGV C1, in former times VGB 70 and
EN 60598-2-17) must be observed.
