IMPORTANT! Always shut off power to the circuit before starting installation work. In some countries electrical installation work may only be carried out by a authorized electrical contractor. Contact your local electricity authority for advice.

The lamp is only suitable for connecting directly to the mains.
The mounting instruction must not be discarded.

In the Nordic Countries, outdoor lights must be mounted by an authorised electrician.

Guarantee
The Nordlux Outdoor lamps in copper, brass, tombac and galvanized are guaranteed for up to 15 years. This guarantee applies to extensive corrosion in the form of holes in the metal caused by rust.
The guarantee is subject to presentation of receipt.
There is not guarantee on the components which have been damaged by wear and tear or mistreatment of the lamps

Stainless steel
Remember to take care of your lamp. Just follow the guidelines below.
The shiny, uniform and decorative surface of stainless steel makes it very suitable for outdoor use.
It is an alloy consisting of iron, chrome and nickel. During bath pickling, a thin, rustproof oxide layer forms on the surface.
The surface is continually vulnerable to atmospheric conditions, and from other effects of the close environment. This means that the lamp must be regularly maintained if its surface is to remain shiny and untarnished by rust.
Before setting it up, treat your lamp with acid-free oil, and dry it off with a soft cloth. Repeat this three or four times a year.
Stainless steel lamps are not recommended for use in aggressive environments such as coastal, agricultural or industrial areas.

Copper, Brass and Tombac fixtures
Our copper, brass and tombac fixtures are made from respectively solid copper, brass and tombac. The mechanical machining will leave small scratches in the surface, as well as residues of rinse aid. This rapidly disappears in the patina process. After the first rain showers the copper / brass / tombak surface will appear stained, but the aerated air and moisture will soon make the lamp appear with dark brownish color.
Over the years, the material copper will get a beautiful patina-green color and brass / tombac will get a darker and more uniform color. The uniformity of the patina surface, as well as the rate at which the process

Hot-galvanized lamps
The zinc treatment of the steel lamps is executed manually in plants.
The temperature of the melted zinc is about 460 degrees. When the lamps are dipped in melted zinc a reaction between the metalls occurs, which develops alloys in the surface.
The lamp and the components of the lamp are manually dipped in the hot zinc. This treatment leaves variations in the coating in the form of partly an uneven surface and partly minor formations of drops.
Thin »zine curtains« might also occur on the surface and they show as a thin film which hangs down from the edge of the lamp. This film can easily be removed or brushed off with a soft brush.
Condensation
Condensation is a natural phenomenon arising under specific atmos- pheric conditions. Damp heat and cold air meet, which causes conden- sation of water on the surface.
When water heats up it leads to rising water vapour, which will be able to affect electric components.
Condensation is not included by Nordlux warranty, unless it is possible to prove that a technical /production error in the lighting causes entry of water.
In case of condensation please check:

• If the lighting is mounted according to instructions. Washers should seal tightly. Make sure to tension screws and lenses.
• In garden lightings rising damp from the ground may cause condensa- tion in the metal post. This problem can be defeated by filling sealing material into the metal post.

Aluminium fixtures
Our aluminium light fixtures are made from die-cast and/or extruded aluminium, where the light fixture’s design determines whether both types of materials, or just one of them, are used for different parts of the same light fixture. Aluminium light fixtures in raw aluminium are subsequently coated with a special clear coat, which seals the surface to safeguard against corrosion. Painted aluminium light fixtures are powder-coated and have a uniform and smooth surface. To avoid the light fixture tarnishing, it is recommended to clean and wipe the light fixture after mounting, and repeat this process 3-4 times each year. This is done with a regular cleaning agent. Black light fixtures which are bleached by strong sunlight can also benefit from treatment with silicone spray as needed, to maintain the black color. Mounting light fixtures in coastal, agricultural or industrial areas is not recommended, as these aggressive surroundings may cause the light fixture to corrode, which may entail spalling, bubbles in the surface and a whitish incrustation on the light fixture’s surface.
-It is highly important that drainage holes are kept free of impurities if any.
BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE BOLLARD AGAIN DO REMEMBER TO WIPE OFF ALL PARTS!

INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these instructions carefully before attempting to install this fitting. It is advisable to keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference. If this fitting is installed by a contractor, the contractor should ensure that the customer has a copy of these instructions.

SENSOR SPECIFICATIONS

NOTE! If triggered within this period, another 1 min. is added to time already run.
Manual override:| Can be activated by switching off-on off-on (twice) using the fused spur switch. This will switch light on for 3.5 hours.
Max. detection range:| Up to 8 metres approx. depending on weather conditions and mounting height. NOTE! The 8m detection range applies when a person is walking across the detection area, not walking towards the sensor. If a person is walking towards the sensor and 1.5m to the left or right of it, the detection range is typically between 4m and 6m
Mounting height:| 1.5 to 2 metres approx.
Ambient operating temp. range:| -20° to +35° Celsius

OPERATION

NORMAL POWER-UP

On initial power-up there is a 30 second warm-up period which allows the PIR (sensor) to stabilize.
Walk-test Mode
During the first 10 seconds of the warm-up period (above) the unit can be put into walk-test mode by switching the mains power OFF ON OFF ON. The PIR (sensor) will now detect movement and switch the lamp on for 2 seconds duration for each detection
made. This will give the user an indication of the area covered by the PIR sensor. If there is no detection for a duration of 30 seconds then the unit will automatically enter Normal Auto Mode (see below).
Normal Auto Mode
The PIR (sensor) will only detect and switch the lamp on if the ambient light indicates that it is between dusk and dawn. The lamp will be illuminated for the pre-set time of 90 Seconds (the timing is re-set if additional triggers are detected).
Manual Override Mode
With the unit in Normal Auto Mode, manual override can be activated by switching the main power OFF ON OFF ON. The lamp will now stay illuminated for 3-5 hours before automatically reverting to Normal Auto Mode.
NOTE
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND USING LOW ENERGY SAVING LAMPS IN THIS FIXTURE.

TROUBLESHOOTING

When replacing the lamp or servicing the fitting, turn the power off at the mains and allow the lantern to cool.

•Lamp not fitted correctly or broken
•Incorrect wiring| •Check power and fuse
•Check lamp
•Check wiring
Unit will not work when in normal operation| •Area too light, e.g. lighting nearby| •Re-position lantern if required
Sensing range too short| •Unit is fixed too high, or angle of
approach into detection bands is incorrect
•Other lighting interfering with the sensitivity of the PIR sensor| •Move the unit to a lower height and/or change the angle of approach
•Move lantern away from other lighting
Lamp on all the time| •The manual override has been activated
•Wrongly wired| •Turn manual override off
•Check wiring
Lamp false triggers| •Lantern badly positioned
•High winds| •Reposition lantern
•Temporary situation. If annoying, switch lantern off
Cannot operate Test Mode| •Waited for more than 10 seconds after power-up before trying to activate| •Switch OFF-ON OFF-ON within 10 seconds of power-up
Cannot switch off Test Mode| •PIR is being triggered| •Ensure nothing crosses the detection area for more than 40 seconds
If Normal Mode lamp stays on for more than 1 minute| •PIR (sensor) has been triggered again within the 1 minute time period (see specification)| •Light will automatically switch off approximately 1 minute after the last signal the PIR receives
