is required for safety. THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE INSTALLATION CODE BY A 
PERSON FAMILIAR WITH THE CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF THE PRODUCT AND THE HAZARDS INVOLVED. 

WARNING: Make certain power is OFF before installing or maintaining fixture. No user serviceable parts inside.  
CAUTION: For proper weatherproof function all gaskets must be seated properly and all screws inserted and tightened 
firmly. Apply weatherproof silicone sealant around the edge of the ceiling mounting box and/or junction box. This is 
especially important with an uneven ceiling surface. Silicone all plugs and unused conduit entries.

The fixture is suitable for outdoor applications in wet locations 
either ceiling or wall mounted.
