6. Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety information. If you do
not follow the safety instructions and information on proper handling in this manual, we assume
no liability for any resulting personal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the

a) General information
• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material
for children.
• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture,
ammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any
accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the
product.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices which are connected to the
product.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about operation, safety or connection of the device.
• Maintenance, modications and repairs are to be performed exclusively by an expert or at a qualied
shop.
• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical
support service or other technical personnel.

b) Persons and product
• Refer to the safety information and operating instructions for other devices (such as remote-controlled
sockets and timers) when connecting such devices to the light.
• Before connecting to the mains, make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the specications
on the nameplate. Never attempt to operate the product using another type of voltage, as this may
destroy the product.
• Never cover the product. The surface may get hot during use. Covering the product not only constitutes
a re hazard but may also cause it to overheat, which can damage the product.
• Keep the product away from ammable materials and objects.
• Do not hang or secure any objects (e.g. decorations) to the product.
• Do not install or use the product in rooms or in adverse environmental conditions that contain or may
contain ammable gases, vapours or dust. There is a risk of explosion!
• The LED strip is constructed according to protection class III.
• This product is not designed for use with an alternating current (transformers), as this may destroy the
LED strip!
• Do not place mechanical loads on the components of the LED strip.
• The power adapter is constructed according to protection class II. Only use a mains socket
(100 - 240 V/AC, 50/60 Hz) connected to the public supply net as a voltage source.
• Never pour any liquids over electrical products or put objects lled with liquid next to the product. If liquid
or an object does enter the interior of the product, power down the respective socket (e.g. switch off
circuit breaker) and then pull the mains plug from the mains socket. Discontinue use and take the product
to a specialist repair centre.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into a warm one.
The condensation generated could destroy the product. The plug-in power supply unit also involves
danger to life by electric shock! Allow the product to reach room temperature before connecting it to the
power supply and putting it to use. This may take several hours.
• Do not touch the power adapter if there are any signs of damage, as this may cause a fatal electric
shock! Switch off the mains voltage to the mains socket to which the power adapter is connected (switch
off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the safety fuse, then switch off at the corresponding
RCD protective switch, so that all poles of the mains socket are disconnected). Then unplug the power
adapter from the mains socket. Dispose of the faulty power adapter in an environmentally friendly way
and discontinue use. Replace it with a power adapter of the same design.
• The mains outlet must be located near to the device and be easily accessible.
• Only use the supplied mains adapter to power the product.
• Never connect or disconnect power adapters if your hands are wet.
• Never unplug the power adapter from the mains socket by pulling on the cable; always use the grips
on the plug.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the cable is not pinched, kinked or damaged by sharp
edges.
7
• Always lay the cables so that nobody can trip over or become entangled in them. This poses a risk of
injury.
• For safety reasons, disconnect the power adapter from the mains socket during storms.
• Attention, LED light:
- Do not look directly into the LED light!
- Do not look into the beam directly or with optical instruments!

8. Preparation for mounting
Read the "6. Safety instructions" section carefully before mounting the product.
Warning! The product must only be installed by a qualied electrician who is familiar with the relevant
regulations (e.g. VDE)! By carrying out improper work on the mains voltage you endanger not only yourself,
but also others! If you do not know how to mount the product, get a technician to do it for you; do not mount
it yourself.
• Mount the product in an area that is out of the reach of children.
• Only mount the product on a stable surface. Stick the LED strip to a metal surface to ensure that it can cool down
properly.
This product is powered by a low 12 V/DC voltage. Never use a higher or alternating voltage.

9. Mounting and connection
Read the information in the "Preparation for mounting" section.
The conductors must not be damaged or interrupted when mounting the LED strip!
When mounting the LED strip on metal surfaces, the mounting surface should be isolated from the LED
strip (1) to prevent short circuits on exposed solder contacts.
• Take precautions against electrostatic discharges (ESD) when mounting the product.
• The LED strip can be mounted using the double-sided adhesive tape on the rear of the strip (2). Start by mounting
the LED strip at one end.
• Peel off approximately 30 cm of protective lm on the back of the LED strip.
• Stick the LED strip to the mounting surface. Ensure that you secure the LED strip to a clean surface that is free
from grease, oil, silicon and dust.
• Repeat this step bit by bit until the LED strip is fully secure.
Caution: Do not bend the LED strip! This can damage the soldered joints.
• Separate the LED strip at the marked points using a pair of scissors, a wire cutter or other similar tool. Alternatively,
use a box cutter to score along each side of the marked points and then carefully separate the LED strip.
You are recommended to connect the power adapter (6) to a socket with a switch so that you can turn the
LED strip on and off without unplugging the power adapter. If the power socket is located far from the
mounting location, use an extension cable. These components are not included with the product.
10. Operation
• Plug the connection plug (4) on the power cable (5) into the connection socket (3) on the LED strip (1).
• To use the LED strip (1), plug the power adapter (6) into a suitable mains socket.
• Switch on the mains socket (if applicable).
• The LED strip will turn on.
• To turn the LED strip off, switch off the power socket.
• Unplug the power adapter from the mains socket.

11. Maintenance and cleaning
Never use aggressive detergents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, as these could damage the
housing or even impair the functioning of the product.
• You do not need to carry out maintenance work on the product. The SMD LEDs are not replaceable.
• Regularly check the product for damage, e.g. damage to the coating on the LED strip or the housing.
• Always disconnect the product from the power supply before cleaning it. Before cleaning, unplug the power adapter
from the mains socket and let the product cool down.
• Do not immerse the product in water.
• Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
