INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING - To reduce the risk of FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS: Do not overdrive fixtures with greater
than 12 volts or fixture over-heating and short lamp life will occur. Do not overload the transformer by
installing (or re-lamping) higher wattage lamps than planned. Note: Total wattage of all lamps connected to one
transformer must not exceed the capacity of that transformer. Do not install luminaire within 10 feet (3.04m) of a
pool, spa, or fountain.
SAFETY WARNING: When relamping, be sure electrical supply is OFF. Low voltage fixtures can become
very hot depending on the lamp wattage used. Glass lenses and metal areas above & around the lamp can
become hot enough to blister hands. Use discretion when touching fixture and be sure to allow fixture to cool
before relamping. When relamping fixture avoid touching the lamp envelope with bare hands. If touching the
lamp is necessary during installation, clean the envelope with alcohol and dry with a clean, soft cloth before
turning ON. Contamination of the envelope may reduce lamp performance. To maintain light efficiency and
prevent fixture-overheating, glass lenses and enclosure must be kept clean and free of dirt, dust, leaves, trash
(combustible materials) and mineral deposits from water. Particular care should be taken not to locate fixtures
where small children can reach them if higher wattage's are used.
NOTE: Keep the lamp free from impact while burning, as this may deform the filament and shorten the lamp life.
NOT INTENDED FOR INDOOR USE. All electrical work should be done by a qualified electrician.
KEEP THIS SHEET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

KLV415 EXTENSION MODULE
The KIM 9" long Extension Module is an essential
component to a well planned landscape lighting system.
Because low voltage fixtures are small they can easily
become engulfed by maturing ground cover or
shrubbery. The Extension Module functions by raising
the fixtures to a proper height above the foilage for
efficient operation. It can be used with adjustable
accent lights, path lights, or spread lights. The
Extension Module should be installed during the initial
fixture installation. If added later, the fixture-to-cable
connection must be broken and rewired.
