The device can be damaged if it is operated with the incorrect voltage or if
high voltage peaks occur. In the worst case, excess vol‐tages can also cause a
risk of injury and fires. Make sure that the voltage specification on the
device matches the local power grid before plugging in the device. Only
operate the device from professionally installed mains sockets that are
protected by a residual current circuit breaker (FI). Close the Always connect
the device directly to the power grid. Never connect it to a dimmer. As a
pre‐caution, disconnect the device from the power grid when storms are
approaching or it the device will not be used for a longer period.

Features
The LED floodlight is particularly suitable for decorative lighting outdoors. The device is characterized by:
- Control via infrared remote control (included)
- Choice of 46 colours
- Built-in automatic show programmes
- Outdoor use due to protection class IP65
- Removable ground spike
- Pressure compensation valve for a long service life
- Robust and elegant housing made of aluminium
Information about protection class IP65
- For technological reasons, the light output of LEDs decreases over their lifetime. This effect increases with higher operating temperature. You can extend the service life of the illuminants by providing adequate ventilation and operating the LEDs with the lowest possible brightness.
- Equipment with protection class IP65 are dust-tight and completely protected against contact (first code number). They are also protected against splash water from any angle (second code digit). That is why this equipment can also be used outdoors. Event technology equipment is generally only designed for temporary use however (event lighting) and not for permanent use outdoors.
- The specified protection class does not make a statement about the weather resistance of the equipment (resistance to changing ambient conditions as well as against the effects of sun‐light and UV rays).
- The seals and screw connections of the equipment must be checked regularly to ensure a fault-free operation. In cases of doubt, consult a specialist workshop in due time.
Installation and starting up
Unpack and check carefully there is no transportation damage before using the
unit. Keep the equipment packaging. To fully protect the product against
vibration, dust and moisture during transportation or storage use the original
packaging or your own packaging material suitable for transport or storage,
respectively.
WARNING!
Risk of injury from falling devices that were inadequately secured!
If devices are not properly secured during assembly, they can cause severe
injury and considerable damage by falling.
When installing and operating, make sure to follow the standards and
regulations that apply in your country.
Always secure the device with a secondary safety attachment, such as a safety
cable or a safety chain.
NOTICE!
Potential property damage due to unsuitable stands!
If the device is mounted on an unsuitable stand, there is a risk that the
stand will fall over and cause damage.
Only use stands whose maximum bearing capacity is at least as high as the
weight of the device. Always ensure that the stand is stable.
NOTICE!
Risk of overheating due to bad ventilation!
If the device is badly ventilated, the device can overheat.
Do not operate the unit at ambient temperatures outside the specified
tempera‐ture range (see chapter “Technical data” of the user manual).
Always ensure sufficient ventilation at the operating location.
Mounting options
- You can install the device in hanging or standing positions. When in use, the device must always be attached to a solid surface or an approved mount. Use the openings provided on the bracket for attaching.
- Always work from a stable platform whenever installing, moving or servicing the unit. While you do this, the area underneath the device must be cordoned off.
- The safety cable must be attached to the bracket.
- Please note that this device must not be connected to a dimmer.
Connecting the DMX IP65 con‐nectors
Proceed as follows to connect the DMX-IP65 connectors
- Insert the plug completely and straight into the coupling.
- Make sure that the flexible sealing ring has complete contact.
- Turn the union nut straight onto the thread of the coupling. Hand-tighten the union nut.
Infrared sensor for the remote control
Align the infrared sensor in such a way that there are no objects between
the remote control and the infrared sensor that could cause interference.
Create all connections while the device is off. Use the shortest possible
high-quality cables for all connections. Take care when running the cables to
prevent tripping hazards.
Inserting the battery into the remote control
Push the lock of the battery holder towards the centre of the housing and pull
out the battery holder like a drawer. Insert the batteries. The battery is
correct if the positive pole points to the housing base of the remote control.
Slide the battery holder back into the remote until it clicks into place.
When shipping, the battery is already installed in the remote and protected
against discharge by a transparent plastic film. Remove the plastic film
before initial use.
NOTICE!
Risk of fire due to incorrect polarity!
Incorrectly inserted batteries may cause fires and destroy the device and the
bat‐teries.
Observe the markings on the batteries and on the device.
Ensure that proper polarity is observed when inserting batteries.
NOTICE!
Possible damage due to leaking batteries!
Batteries can leak and cause permanent damage to the device.
Take the batteries out of the device if it is not going to be used for an
extended period of time.

Cleaning
Optical lenses
Clean the optical lenses, that are accessible from the outside, regularly in
order to optimize the light output. The frequency of cleaning depends on the
operating environment: wet, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause
more accumulation of dirt on the optics of the device.
- Clean with a soft cloth using our lamp and lens cleaner (item no. 280122).
- Always dry the parts carefully.
Protecting the environment
Disposal of the packing material
Environmentally friendly materials have been chosen for the packaging. These
materials can be sent for normal recycling. Ensure that plastic bags,
packaging, etc. are disposed of in the proper manner.
Do not dispose of these materials with your normal household waste, but make
sure that they are collected for recycling. Please follow the instructions and
markings on the packaging.
Observe the disposal note regarding documentation in France.
Disposal of batteries
- Batteries do contain some hazardous chemicals so they should not be thrown away with the normal household waste. They should be returned to the manufacturer for disposal or recycled elsewhere in accordance with your local regulations.
- Only dispose of lithium batteries when they are empty. Remove lithium batteries from the device before disposal if this is possible without destroying it. Protect used lithium batteries against short circuit, for example by taping the poles. Dispose the built-in lithium batteries together with the device. Check for an appropriate collection facility.
- Dispose of the batteries and rechargeable batteries at relevant collection points or through your local waste facility.
