Warranty

  • This recessed luminaire is covered by a 3-year warranty valid for in-store replacement or refund only.
  • The warranty period starts from the date of purchase, not the date of installation. Please retain the proof of purchase.
  • The use of non-compatible dimmers may damage your recessed luminaire and will void your warranty.
  • Warranty will be void if there is any damage due to improper usage or modification to the recessed luminaire.
  • Failure to comply with the instructions in this manual may increase the risk of damage or injury and will void the warranty.

Installation Requirements

  • Before the installation, check the installation location in the ceiling has access to a socket outlet which is connected to a wall light switch and dimmer. If it does not, please contact a licensed electrician to arrange installation of the socket outlet, wall light switch and dimmer before continuing.

  • All wiring and installation of the recessed luminaire must adhere to the latest local and national wiring rules. eg. AS/NZS 3000 Electrical installations. If unsure, please contact a licensed electrician.

  • The front cover of the LED downlight is rated IP44 only after it is fully installed. This must be maintained during installation. NOTE: The recessed parts of the LED downlight is rated IP40.

  • Select a suitable location for installation;
    – The mounting point must support 2 times the weight of the recessed luminaire.
    – This recessed luminaire is suitable for indoor or outdoor use, provided that it is installed under cover or eaves.

  • This recessed luminaire is dimmable and has been tested at the date of publication with the dimmers listed in the specification section. The use of a LED dimmer such as the Lucci LEDlux SKU# 290998 or SKU# 290997 dimmer is highly recommended.
    NOTE: For the best dimming range, use the Lucci LEDlux SKU# 290998 dimmer and adjust the variable resistor at the minimum and maximum dimming positions on the dimmer during the installation.
    NOTE: Dimming may cause buzzing sounds or a slight flicker. There may be slight delays with the LED light startup or slight uneven light performance when more than one LED light fitting is linked together, switched ON or dimmed. This is not a product fault and as such is not covered under warranty.
    NOTE: Some dimmers have a minimum load of 20W. Ensure the dimmer position is on the maximum setting before turning on the LED light and adjust the dimmer down to your desired light level.
    NOTE: Testing cannot account for installation variables such as variation in mains supply voltage, cable capacitance, electrical noise, transients, surges and ripple control signals (commonly found in NSW & QLD).
    NOTE: The information provided is correct to the best of Beacon Lighting’s knowledge at the date of publication.

  • This recessed luminaire has an insulating ceiling type IC-4 rating. Building insulation material can safely be exposed continuously to temperatures up to 90°C may abut and cover the luminaire. (Please refer to the Clearance Information section and the IC-4 rating section in this instruction manual for further details.)

  • If loose-fill insulation or thermal insulation is not fixed into position or if there are loose combustible materials (e.g. leaves or combustible materials stored in the roof space), a barrier or guard is required as per the Clearance Information section in this  instruction manual.

  • The recessed luminaire must not be used if the diffuser has been cracked or damaged.

  • Take care not to pull any electrical wires during unpacking as this may damage the connection.

  • Lay out all the components on a smooth surface and make sure no components are missing before assembling. If parts are missing, return the complete product to the place of purchase for inspection or replacement.
