Cleaning your product
- Wipe off your product with a normal detergent, on a damp cloth
DO NOT use alcohol or thinner for cleaning your light – this could damage the lens.
Troubleshooting
If the light does not function:
- Check that you have a supply Voltage between 10 and 32 Volt DC.
- Check that the polarity is right (you will not damage the Lopolight by accidentally wiring the polarity wrong).
End-of-life signaling
Your Lopolight product has a microprocessor inside that ensures that the light has the required intensity over a 50.000-hour projected lifetime. The light will signal to you when it is getting to the end of its useful life. The following signals can be observed:
- All OK: 5 seconds after turning on the light it will go dark for 0,1 seconds and turn on again. This is just a check for you to assure that the microprocessor is working.
- Less than 2000 working hours left: The dark period is extended to 2 seconds: you should change the light at your next service within the next 12 months.
- Light Expired: The dark period is extended to 5 seconds: You should change the light immediately. (The light will still be working, even in the expired state)
