TROUBLESHOOTING
Your Verilux®desk lamp uses advanced micro-electronics to power
the revolutionary Trucolite™ bulb. These electronics are housed in a
specially designed ballast located at the power plug. The LED indicator
light on the ballast allows you to troubleshoot any problems with the
lamp’s function. When replacing your Verilux®ballast, take care to plug
in the power cord properly. The 4-pin plug was designed to fit in only
one orientation (See Assembly Instructions on page 5).
• Make sure all power connectors, cords, and plugs are inserted fully
and securely.
• Be sure the bulb is securely seated into the socket. (See page 8).
• Unplug the lamp for a few minutes (this allows the electronics in the
ballast to reset).
• Make sure there is power to the wall outlet or try another outlet.
WARNING: Do not block vents on ballast. Vents are necessary for
proper function of the ballast; blocking them may cause overheating of
the ballast and increase risk of fire.

CARE & CLEANING
Your lamp is made from high quality materials that will last for many
years with minimum care. You may want to periodically clean the lamp,
using a mild non-abrasive cleaner and soft cloth. When cleaning, make
sure you have turned off and unplugged the unit, and allowed sufficient
time for the unit to cool. All liquid should be properly wiped away and
dried prior to restoring power.
DO NOT USE SOLVENTS OR CLEANERS CONTAINING
ABRASIVES, OR AMMONIA BASED CLEANERS
Note: Do not use any cleaning agents, including window cleaner, on
the Optix®glare control filter. If needed, dust with a clean, dry cloth.
