retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture
must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box

current draw under normal conditions. All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and
cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the
rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before
applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the
fixture

s requirement. Check the fixture or device carefully to make sure that
if a voltage selection switch exists that it is set to the correct line voltage you
will use.

Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied. All
fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
