b. While holding the fixture upright, place the glass lens with the gasket on top of the fixture. Please note that the lens gasket is not symmetrical. Therefore, it must be installed correctly so that the lens can seal to the fixture housing. Place the gasket on the lens so that the thick molded side of the gasket will mate with the housing when the lens is installed, see Figure 10. On the small light, replace the diverger by tucking the tabs between the lens and gasket.
NOTE Be sure to face the dull side of the diverger down towards the PCB.
c. Position the lens and gasket on the fixture. Place the face ring assembly
over the lens and align the pilot screw with the small arrow mark on the face

7. Reinstall the Jandy Pro Series Light into niche fixture.
a. Coil the extra four (4) feet of cord around the fixture or into the base of
the niche and place the light assembly into the niche.
b. Engage the retainer tab on the bottom of the face ring, then pivot the top
of the fixture inward and tighten the special pilot screw.
WARNING
Use only the special pilot screw provided with this underwater light. This screw mounts and electrically grounds the housing securely to the mounting ring and wet niche. Failure to use the screw provided could create an electrical hazard, which could result in death or serious injury to pool or spa users, installers or others due to electrical shock.
8. If pool is empty, fill the pool until the underwater light is completely submerged in water before operating the light for more than 10 seconds. Turn on main switch or circuit breaker, as well as the switch, which specifically operates the underwater light, to check for proper operation.
WARNING
Never operate this underwater light for more than 10 seconds unless it is totally submerged in water. Without total submersion, the light assembly will get extremely hot, which may result in serious burns or in damage to the light. This may result in serious injury to pool or spa users, installers, or bystanders or in damage to property.

Section 8. Twelve (12) Volt Installation
A separate 12-Volt AC Transformer is required on all 12-Volt Models. For Jandy Pro Series WaterColors Light use a 150-watt multi-tap 12-volt system per light.
NOTE For optimum performance Jandy Pro Series recommends to use one transformer per 12-volt light.
To ensure maximum safety, it is strongly recommended that a transformer that has been listed or recognized by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) for the application be used.
