A separate power supply unit is required to operate the luminaire.

For connection to external LED-power supply unit – accessory 13 145 or 13 171 – the luminaire is equipped with a 2-pin connector.
Note operating instructions of the LED-power supply units.
LED are high-quality electronic components!
Please avoid touching the light output opening of the LED directly during installation or relamping.
The recessed housing is fixed in the recessed opening by screwing it to the ceiling from below.
Installation in suspended ceilings:
A recessed opening of 142 mm with a minimum depth of 105 mm is required.
The lateral clearance between the recessed housing and parts of the building must be at least 50 mm.
Make the appropriate cutout in the suspended ceiling. The ceiling cutout must have an all-round chamfer of 45°, depending on the thickness of the ceiling panel.
Remove the ceiling mounting plate by turning it upwards and out of the thread of the adjusting sleeve, move it through the ceiling cutout and place it on the suspended ceiling.
Secure the ceiling mounting plate with screws (Ø 3.5 to 4 mm) suitable for gypsum plasterboard panels from below through the suspended ceiling.
When doing so, hold the ceiling mounting plate through the ceiling cutout.

Place the enclosed centre-plate made of rigid polystyrene foam on a plain surface with the chamfer facing upwards.
Position the adjusting sleeve above the centreplate and press it in so that it is flush with the surface – see drawing.

Make sure to use this centre-plate in order to guarantee the correct installation of the luminaire in the ceiling!
Turn the adjusting sleeve into the thread of the previously fitted ceiling mounting plate until it is exactly flush with the ceiling.
Fill the 45° chamfer of the ceiling cutout with standard filler and smooth it so that it is flush.
Allow the filler to set completely! Press the centre-plate about 5 mm upwards into the adjusting sleeve and then pull it down carefully to remove it from the adjusting sleeve.
Connect to the LED power supply unit.
