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.
