Before you start
Please read these instructions carefully before fitting your new light and retain for reference.
Switch off the mains and remove the appropriate fuse or switch off the appropriate circuit breaker before
commencing installation. Ensure no one has access that would enable the supply to be inadvertently

Check the packaging and make sure that you have all the required parts.
Follow each assembly step in order to prevent incorrect assembly
This is a class II, double insulated light, (denoted by the symbol
) and the fitting does not require an
Earth.
Any earth cables present must be connected together, to ensure earth continuity of the circuit, and isolated
from the Live and Neutral terminal connections, if necessary by wrapping the earth terminal and connections
with 2 layers of good quality insulation tape.
If the glass covers are broken or cracked then they must be replaced immediately to preserve the water
ingress protection, please consult your retailer. This is represented by the symbol

1. Decide on the position of the light fitting / or remove existing light fitting. Take a note of the position of
the electrical connections. Ensure there is a solid mounting surface, preferably a wooden joist or joist
bridge to support the weight of the light fitting.
2. Diagram A. Remove the back plate, by undoing the 2 side screws / silicone washers, retain these
for re-use.
3. Make a small hole in the silicone grommet in the back plate, pass the mains cable through this
grommet and then use the back plate as a template to mark the screws holes. Fix the back plate to
the mounting surface making sure that the silicone washers are used under the screw heads. This is
to ensure the water ingress protection of the fitting.
4. Diagram B. Support your fitting and then connect the house wiring according to the wiring diagram
shown. Open the terminal block box and take out the long tailed grommet, sliding it up the house
supply cable. Cut and strip the cable and connect it to the terminal block as shown. The connections
to the light fitting have been made already. Re-fit the long tailed grommet into the end of the box so
that it forms an additional layer of insulation where the sheath of the supply cable has been stripped
back. Close the box.
5. Diagram C - Re-position the fitting over the back plate and secure with the 2 side screws / silicone
washers. Make sure that all the internal cables and connections are inside the back plate taking care
not to trap or strain the internal cables.
6. Diagram D - Fit the correct bulbs, as stated on the product label. Never exceed the maximum
wattage stated. Carefully place the glass shades – using a gentle twisting motion -over the bulbs
onto the silicon ring on the spot light heads. Make sure that the rubber threaded seals are kept in
place (this is to ensure water ingress protection is maintained).
7. Re-connect the power and test the fitting.
