Cleaning and Care

CLEANING AND CARE

WARNING!  

All cleaning should be performed with power completely removed from the luminaire. Never 

remove protective covers when luminaire is powered. Wear appropriate protective eye wear and gloves 
when cleaning the fixture. All service and maintenance, other than described herein, should be performed 
by a qualified technician or Authorized Service Center. AT NO TIME SHOULD THE LED BE TOUCHED.

Special Cleaning and Care Instructions

Being a solid-state fixture, and unlike most fixtures, the AP-150 RGBW Par LED Luminaire requires very
little routine maintenance by the user.

The  AP-150  RGBW  Par  LED  Luminaire  requires  special  care  when  it  comes  to  cleaning  front  lens
assembly. Additional care needs to be taken with the plastic components because they are much easier to
scratch or damage than glass.

The following is a list of cleaning materials required to care for your AP-150 RGBW Par LED Luminaire:

• Lint free lens tissue

• Lint or powder free gloves

• Reagent grade isopropyl alcohol*

• A mild soap solution.

Note:  

*Reagent grade isopropyl alcohol is good to use on the AP-150 RGBW Par LED Luminaire plastic 

optics with anti-reflection coatings.

If the lens is still dirty after using isopropyl alcohol, for instance if fingerprints or oil is just redistributed and
not cleaned off the optic, then a mild soap and water solution can be used to gently wash the lens. Repeat
the cleaning with isopropyl alcohol to eliminate streaks and soap residue.

WARNING!  

Under no circumstances should ammonia-based cleaners, acetone, or other harsh solvents 

be used on or near the AP-150 RGBW Par LED Luminaire. These types of cleaners or solvents can 
permanently damage the optics or housings of the fixture.

If you have any questions regarding the use or care of your AP-150 RGBW Par LED Luminaire, please
contact Altman Lighting technical support or your local Authorized Dealer.

Front Lens Cleaning

To clean the exterior front lens:

Step 1. Turn off luminaire and allow to cool completely.
Step 2. Apply a small amount of reagent grade isopropyl alcohol to lint-free lens tissue.
Step 3. Wipe all debris, dirt, fingerprints, etc. from lens.
Step 4. Using a second lint-free lens tissue, wipe off any alcohol residue.

Service and Maintenance

For  all  other  service  and  maintenance  issues,  please  contact  your  local Altman  Lighting  office  or  an
Authorized Service Center.

WARNING!  

Disassembly, alterations, unauthorized service, etc. will void the product warranty. Contact 

your local Altman Lighting office or an Authorized Service Center for technical support and service.
