NOTE:

 Your light unit is tested to IPx7.

This means that it can withstand temporary 
submersion. However, 

IT IS NOT A SUBMERSIBLE 

LIGHT

Light tubes (please read the general electrical 
safety instructions before installing the lights, 
fi lter or heater)

 Your new aquarium uses standard 

tubes (supplied). They are available as replacement 
parts from your local Aqua One dealer. Light tubes 
are not covered by the guarantee. Life expectancy 
is generally 10 months or more, however tubes 
loose their output gradually over time. To maintain 
the health of plant and aquatic life effected by the 
amount of light available we suggest changing 
them every 6 months. 

Locating the lights

 

Positioning of lights on aquarium (note some 
models have twin light units). The black end caps 
have brackets which slide over the aquarium trim. 
Please ensure light unit is fi rmly in place before 
switching on. The black hood covers help secure 
the lights in place. 
 

Removing Light Tubes

 

Switch light off, remove from mains supply and 
tank before disassembly of lights at any time. 
Unscrew the white end caps of the tube holders 
by turning anti clockwise (1). Both caps should 
be removed before the tube is slid out. Keep end 
caps as these are required for re-installing (2).  
 

Installing new tubes 

With the light unit unplugged and removed from 
the tank, slide the end caps over the tube both 
ends (1). Gently slide the tube pins into the end 
cap receptacles (3). Fully tighten the caps back 
on their threads (4). Be careful not to cross thread 
as this is a water tight seal. Only use hand tight. 
Ensure they are fully tightened. Test before re-
installing on to the tank.
