1 Ensure that the pool meets the requirements of the current National Electrical Code and all
local codes and ordinances. A licensed or certified electrician must install the electrical
system to meet or exceed those requirements before the underwater light is installed. Some of
the requirements of the National Electrical Code which the Pool's electrical system must meet
are as follows.
a) The lighting circuit must have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), and must have an
appropriately rated circuit breaker.
b) The Junction Box (or, for 12 volt models, the low voltage transformer) must be located at least
20CM above water level, at least 10CM above ground level, and at least 120CM from the
edge of the pool; see Figure 1.
c) The light fixture and all metal items within 152CM of the pool must be properly electrically
bonded.
d) The wet niche must be properly installed so that the top edge of the underwater light's lens is
at least 45.5 below the surface of the water in the pool; see Figure 1.
e) The wet niche must be properly electrically bonded and grounded via the No.8 AWG ground
connector located at the rear of the niche; see Figure 1.
NOTE: The pool or spa electrical system can be verified with a pool and Spa Electrical
Qualification Test kit. The electrical system inspection using this kit must be performed by
trained and certified personnel.
2 To be certain that pool's electrical system meets all applicable requirements, the electrician
should also consult the local building department.

• Do not leave the lights directly under sunlight. Fill the pool with fresh water as soon as
possible after the lights are installed.
• Before switching on the lights, check whether the lights are fully submerged underwater
and the circuit boxes are running properly.
• This unit does not need any kind of maintenance. If it is not working properly, please
contact EMAUX authorized dealer where you purchase the unit from.
• Warranty will be voided if the Emaux Underwater Light was dismantled by unauthorized
personnel.
Maintenance of the Lights
• Do not leave the lights “on” above water for longer than 1 minute.

WARNING
Never operate this Underwater Light for more than 10 seconds unless it is totally
submerged in water. Without total submersion, the light assembly will get extremely
hot, which may result in serious injury to pool users, installers, or bystanders, or in
damage to property.
Use only the special stainless steel pilot screw provided with Underwater Light. Failure
to use the screw provided could create an electrical hazard which could result in
death or serious injury to pool users, installers or others due to electrical shock.
around the light; see Figure 1. This 120CM of cord around the light allows the light to be
serviced after the pool is filled with water.
2 Cut the cord at the Junction BOX, leaving at least 15CM of cord to make connections.
3 Strip 15CM of the outer cord jacket to expose the three insulated wires. Be careful not to
damage the insulation on the three (3) inner wires.
4 Connect all three (3) wires to the corresponding circuit wires in the Junction Box, and secure
the Junction Box cover in place.
5 Replace the light assembly into niche and tighten special pilot screw.
6 Fill the pool until the underwater light is completely submerged in water before operating the
light for more than 10 seconds. Turn on main switch or circuit breaker, as well as the switch
which operates the underwater light itself, to check for proper operation.
