General Information for Luminaires and Lighting Systems

Instructions for Use

Luminaires and lighting systems are designed for safe and efficient illumination of living spaces, offices, commercial areas, outdoor areas, and architectural applications. Use the luminaire exclusively according to its intended use and the technical specifications of the respective product.

  • The installation and electrical connection of permanently installed luminaires may only be carried out in compliance with applicable safety regulations and only when the power is switched off.
  • Only use suitable and compatible light sources, power supplies, control gear, adapters, and accessories according to the technical specifications.
  • Never exceed the permissible electrical load, power, or voltage of the respective lighting system.
  • For outdoor luminaires, pay attention to the specified degree of protection (IP protection class) and only use them in suitable areas.
  • Battery-powered luminaires must be protected from extreme temperatures, open flames, and strong sunlight. Only charge batteries with suitable chargers.
  • Damaged luminaires, cables, plugs, power supplies, or electrical components must not be operated further and must be replaced.
  • Do not cover luminaires during operation unless expressly intended by the manufacturer.
  • Keep ventilation openings and heat dissipation surfaces clear to ensure adequate cooling.

Care and Cleaning Instructions

Regular and proper cleaning contributes to the long service life, optimal light output, and preservation of the high-quality surfaces of luminaires and lighting systems.

  • Before any cleaning, switch off the luminaire and completely disconnect it from the power supply or charger.
  • Allow luminaires and lamps to cool sufficiently before cleaning.
  • Clean housings, covers, shades, reflectors, and track systems with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
  • Remove dust and dirt regularly to ensure optimal light output.
  • Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, abrasive cleaners, alcohol-based cleaners, solvents, or sharp objects, as these can damage surfaces, coatings, and seals.
  • Electrical contacts, plug connections, and electronic components must not come into contact with water or other liquids.
  • For outdoor luminaires, seals, screw connections, and fastenings should be regularly checked for a secure fit and damage.
  • Battery-powered luminaires should be charged regularly during prolonged periods of non-use to preserve battery life.

Disposal instructions

Luminaires, LED modules, electrical components, power supplies, ballasts, track luminaires, and accessories with electronic components may not be disposed of with normal household waste.

  • Please take old electrical appliances to designated collection and return points for waste electrical and electronic equipment.
  • Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries must be disposed of separately from the luminaire at appropriate collection points.
  • Packaging materials such as cardboard, paper, and suitable plastics should be fed into the respective recycling loop.
  • Please observe national and local regulations for the environmentally sound disposal of electrical and electronic equipment.

Proper disposal enables the recovery of valuable raw materials and reduces environmental pollution. Please also refer to our disposal instructions
