5.3 Batteries/rechargeable batteries
Ensure that the battery is inserted with the correct polarity.
To prevent battery leakage, remove the battery if you do not plan to use the product for
an extended period. A leaking or damaged battery may cause acid burns if it comes into
contact with skin. Always use protective gloves when handling damaged batteries.
Batteries must be kept out of the reach of children. Do not leave batteries lying around, as
there is a risk that children or pets may swallow them.
Batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire. Never attempt to
recharge non-rechargeable batteries. This may cause an explosion!

1. LED strip (rolled)
2. Power adapter
3. Infrared sensor (with connection
cable)
4. Remote control
6.1 Preparation for mounting
Follow the information in the “Safety instructions”.
Mount the product so that it is out of the reach of children.
Only mount the product on a stable surface. Attach the LED strip
(1)
to a metal surface to
ensure that it can cool down sufficiently.
Never install the product in areas containing explosive, flammable or corrosive chemicals.
The product is powered by a 12 V/DC voltage. Never use a higher or alternating
voltage.
6.2 Installation and connection
Pay attention to the information in the "Preparation for mounting" section.
6.2.1 Securing the infrared sensor
1. Ensure that the IR sensor
(3)
is placed near to a mains socket.
Æ
Ensure that the infrared sensor is not hidden or covered, otherwise the LED strip
(1)
may
not respond to the remote control commands.
The infrared sensor can be mounted using the adhesive tape on the rear of the sensor.
Remove the protective film from the back of the sensor.
Attach the sensor to the mounting surface. Ensure that you secure the sensor to a clean
surface that is free from grease, oil, silicon and dirt.
6.2.2 Securing the LED strip
The conductors must not be damaged or interrupted when mounting the
LED strip!
When mounting the LED strip on metal surfaces, the mounting surface
should be isolated from the LED strip (1) to prevent short circuits on
exposed solder contacts.
Take precautions against electrostatic discharge (ESD) when mounting the
product.
The LED strip can be mounted using the adhesive tape on the rear of the strip. Start by
mounting the LED strip at one end.
Peel off approximately 30 cm of protective film on the back of the LED strip.
Attach the LED strip to the mounting surface. Ensure that you secure the strip to a clean
surface that is free from grease, oil, silicon and dirt.
Repeat this step until the LED strip is fully secure.
Æ
WARNING: Do not bend the LED strip! This may damage the soldered joints.
To shorten the LED strip, separate the strip at the marked points using a pair of scissors, a
wire cutter or other similar tool. Alternatively, use a box cutter to score along each side of
the marked separation points, and then carefully separate the LED strip.

To use the LED strip
(1)
, insert the connector on the infrared sensor
(3)
cable into the
socket on the LED strip.
Plug the power adapter
(2)
into a mains socket, and then insert the connector on the power
adapter
(2)
into the socket on the infrared sensor cable.
Æ
Do not cover the infra-red sensor
(3)
on the top of the product with opaque objects.
Turn the LED strip on and off using the remote control. Refer to "Using the remote control"
for detailed instructions on how to use the remote control.
8 Using the remote control
8.1 Inserting/changing the remote control battery
Æ
Only replace the battery with a battery of the same type (see "Technical data").
Remove the transparent plastic film in the battery compartment before using the remote
control for the first time.
If the remote control no longer functions properly or the range decreases, replace the
battery with a new battery of the same type.
Remove the battery holder on the bottom of the remote control by pulling outwards. To do
this, slide the lock on the end of the battery holder to the right and then remove the battery
holder. Pay attention to the diagrams on the back of the remote.
Remove the old battery.
Insert a new 3 V CR2025 button cell battery with correct polarity into the battery holder
(observe the plus/+ and minus/- signs on the battery holder).
Slide the battery holder with the newly inserted battery back into the correct position.
Ensure that it clicks into place properly.
8.2 Using the remote control to operate the LED strip
You can control the LED strip using the remote control
(4)
. To turn off the LED strip, point
the infrared sensor on the remote control at the infrared sensor
(3)
on the LED strip, and
then press the button. The wave symbol on the top of the remote control should point at
the infrared sensor. To turn on the LED strip, press the button.
Press the button to increase the brightness.
Press the button to decrease the brightness.
9 Cleaning and care
Important:
– Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical
solutions. These may damage the housing and can cause the product to malfunction.
– Do not immerse the product in water.
This product does not require maintenance. The SMD LEDs are not replaceable.
Regularly check the product for signs of damage, e.g. damage to the coating of the LED
strip or the housing.
Always disconnect the product from the power supply before cleaning it. Before cleaning,
unplug the power adapter from the mains socket and let the product cool down.
Do not immerse the product in water.
Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
