Unpacking Instructions

Immediately upon receiving this product, carefully unpack the carton and check the contents to ensure

that all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the dealer immediately and

retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself

shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture must be

returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box and packing.

LED Expected Lifespan

LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time. HEAT is the dominant factor that leads to the acceleration

of this decline. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal or singular

optimum conditions. For this reason when all color LEDs are used at their fullest intensity, life of the LEDs is

significantly reduced. If improving your lifespan expectancy is of a higher priority, place care in providing

for lower operational temperatures. This may include climatic-environmental and the reduction of overall

projection intensity.
