CHECK THE COMPATIBILITY LIST FIRST. IF THE BALLAST CAN’T BE FOUND IN THE LIST,
PLEASE BYPASS THE BALLAST OR CONTACT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. DO NOT INSTALL THE
TUBE IF THE BALLAST IS NOT ON THE LIST.
b. CAUTION RISK OF FIRE – IF THE LAMP OR LUMINAIRE EXHIBITS UNDESIRABLE
OPERATION (BUZZING, FLICKERING, ETC.), IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF POWER, REMOVE LAMP
FROM LUMINAIRE AND CONTACT MANUFACTURER.
c. DO NOT INSTALL THIS LAMP IN A PRE-HEAT LUMINAIRE. d. THIS LAMP ONLY
OPERATES ON ELECTRONIC BALLASTS. IF LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT WHEN THE LUMINAIRE IS
ENERGIZED, REMOVE LAMP FROM LUMINAIRE AND CONTACT LAMP MANUFACTURER OR
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
e. THIS DEVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH EMERGENCY EXITS.
f. Warning — risk of fire or electric shock. Led retrofit kit installation
requires knowledge of luminaires electrical systems. If not qualified, do not
attempt installation. Contact a qualified electrician.
g. Warning — risk of fire or electric shock. Install this kit only in the
luminaires that have the construction features and dimensions shown in the
photographs and/or drawings and where the input rating of the retrofit kit
does not exceed the input rating of the luminaire.
h. Do not make or alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical
components during kit installation.
i. Warning — to prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to
edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects.
j. Warning for single-ended power input: To avoid potential fire or shock
hazard, do not use this retrofit kit in luminaires employing shunted bi-pin
lampholders. Note: Shunted lamp holders are found only in fluorescent
luminaires with Instant-Start ballasts. Instant-start ballasts can be
identified by the words “Instant Start” or “I.S.” marked on the ballast. This
designation may be in the form of a statement pertaining to the ballast
itself, or may be combined with the marking for the lamps with which the
ballast is intended to be used, for example F40T12/IS. For more information,
contact the LED luminaire retrofit kit manufacturer.
k. Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lampholder terminals
to make new connections at lampholder terminals. Instead, installers should
cut existing lampholder leads away from the lampholder and make new electrical
connections to lampholder lead wires by employing applicable connectors.
I. THE RETROFIT KIT IS ACCEPTED AS A COMPONENT OF A LUMINAIRE WHERE THE
SUITABILITY OF THE COMBINATION SHALL BE DETERMINED BY AUTHORITIES HAVING
