8. MAINTENANCE AND CLEAN-
ING THE UNIT
• Make sure the area below the installation place is
free from unwanted persons during setup.
• Switch off the unit, unplug the main cable and wait
until the unit had cooled down.
• All screws used for installing the device and any
of its parts should be tightly fastened and should
not be corroded.
• Housings, fixations and installation spots (ceilling,
trusses, suspensions) should be totally free from
any deformation.
• The main cables must be in impeccable condition
and should be replaced immediately even when a
small problem is detected.
• It is recommended to clean the front at regular
intervals, from impurities caused by dust, smoke
or other particles to ensure that the light is radi-
ated at maximum brightness. For cleaning, discon-
nect the main plug from the socket. Use a soft,
clean cloth moistened with a mild detergent. Then
carefully wipe the part dry. For cleaning other
housing parts use only a soft, clean cloth. Never
use a liquid, it might penetrate the unit and cause
damage to it.
