4. Safety recommendations and warnings
Warning! Carefully read the warnings below before using or working with the product!
• Always adhere to the local rules and regulations when installing or using the fixture.
• This product may cause interference to radio equipment and should not be installed near maritime safety communications
equipment or other critical navigation or communication equipment operating between 0.45 - 30 MHz.
• Do not use the fixture when either its lamp or its power cord are damaged. Replace the power cord only with original
certified cords. Replace the lamp only with lamps specified by Gavita (see paragraph 3.3).
• The use of other lamps may damage the product and lamp and will void the warranty.
• Modifications to the cords can lead to unwanted electromagnetic effects, which makes the product not comply with legal
requirements.
• Do not expose the fixture to:
-condensing humidity, heavy mist, fog or direct spray;
-(ambient) temperatures outside the specified range;
-dust and contamination;
-direct sunlight during use or HID light that could heat up the ballast.
• Always disconnect the fixture from mains before performing any maintenance.
• Always allow for a cool down period of at least 30 minutes before touching the lamp or reflector. Touching the lamp or the
reflector when the lamp is lit or immediately afterwards will result in severe burns!
• Never touch the lamp with bare hands as this will cause damage to the lamp.
• Do not use the fixture near flammable, explosive or reactive substances. The lamp and the reflector of the fixture reach
temperatures of >85 °Celsius.
• Do not use sulfur vaporizers or water misters. Sulfur and calcium deposits on your reflector will decrease its efficiency.
• The installation and use of the fixture is the responsibility of the end user. Incorrect use or installation can lead to failure
and damage to the fixture. Damage to the fixture and electronic circuitry as a result of incorrect installation and use
revokes the warranty.

water to rinse the reflector;
-Clean the electronic ballast and the outside of the fixture using a dry or damp
cloth.
• Check the lamp monthly for discolorations or black markings. Always replace a
damaged lamp.
Note: Before initial use, the lamp could have black markings. This will disappear
when the lamp runs on full power. If not, replace the lamp.
• Regularly check the wiring of the product to ensure it is undamaged.
10.1. Placement and replacement of the lamp
Caution! Do not touch the lamp with bare hands as this will damage the lamp.
Always use a fabric glove to handle the lamp.
Caution! Only use lamps specified by Gavita (see paragraph 3.3).
Note: Gavita recommends replacing the lamp after 10000 lighting hours.
• Switch off mains power.
• Hold the lamp with a fabric glove to prevent it from falling. Use a protective glove
if the lamp is damaged.
• Open the lamp holders by sliding them outwards (7).
• Carefully take the lamp out of the fixture (8).
• Install the new lamp with the getter (A) near the ballast (9), with the glass
vacuum seal pointed downwards (Philips lamp) or sideways (Gavita lamps).
