Check for undue accumulations of dust, dirt or moisture.

Periodic inspection of the enclosure seal should be carried out to ensure that the seal is sound. If the luminaire has been
subject to abnormal conditions, for example, severe mechanical impact or chemical spillage, it must be de-energised until it
has been inspected by an authorised and competent person
6.1 Cleaning
The body of the luminaire may be cleaned with a mild solution of household detergent and water, after cleaning the body
should be washed and wiped with clean water.
The diffuser should not be polished or wiped with a dry cloth as a risk
of ignition due to electrostatic discharge may result
. Cleaning of the diffuser with any chemical or hydrocarbon solvent
based cleaner may result in severe damage.
7.0 Disposal of Material
General
Disposal of the luminaire as waste should be carried out in accordance with national regulations. Any disposal must satisfy
the requirements of the WEEE directive [2012/19/EU] and therefore must not be treated as commercial waste. The unit is
mainly made from incombustible materials. The control gear contains plastic, resin and electronic components. All electrical
components may give off noxious fumes if incinerated.
7.1 Battery Disposal
Nickel cadmium batteries are defined as 'controlled waste' under the hazardous waste regulations and the person disposing
needs to observe a 'duty of care'.
Batteries can be returned to the manufacturers for recycling. They must be stored and transported safely and any necessary
pollution control forms completed prior to transportation. Take care to fully discharge batteries before transporting, or
otherwise ensure that there can be no release of stored energy in transit. For further details refer to our Technical
Department.
To comply with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment directive 2012/19/EU the
apparatus cannot be classified as commercial waste and as such must be disposed of or
recycled in such a manner as to reduce the environmental impact.
