5. DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE
The appliance is designed to be fixed to the edge of the
bathtub. The assembly has been designed in order to
reduce installation time.
The electrical connections are all on connector to better
manage the installation and the eventual technical assi-
stance.
The device consists of:
- Lamp body complete with arm and on/off
switch
- Power supply
6. INSTALLATION
The installation of this product is simple and does not
require any special equipment.
Proceed as follows:
•
The box includes the lamp body complete with arm for
fixing on the tub and cable with on/off switch in addition to
the power supply.
•
Fix the lamp to the edge of the tub by gently approaching
without forcing the black fixing screw. Connect the power
supply jack to the lamp cable. Finally, connect the power
supply to the power outlet.
The lamp is ready for use.
The power supply unit is used to supply the lamp with low
voltage power via the 230 V mains in "safety socket"
mode.
The power supply must be positioned so that it is protec-
ted from splashes of water.
It is recommended to install under the surface where the
tank is located.
It is also advisable not to keep it too close to any sump or
other water treatment equipment in the tank.
The power supply unit is connected to the mains via a plug
and to the lamp cable via a DC jack in a non-tight manner.
Now the installation is complete.
