SETTING UP YOUR LIGHTSTRIP

Shortening your lightstrip

1. Decide how long you need your lightstrip to be. When measuring, make sure that you start from the side of the tape that has the controller box connected to it. The part of the tape that you cut off will no longer light up.
2. Locate the nearest cut line, and cut with a pair of scissors.
   Cut lines are about 1.3 in. (3.3 cm) apart.
   WARNING: Do not cut the silver solder markings. Only cut in the center of the copper-colored pads, as shown.

Attaching your lights

Adhesive backing

Note: You can secure your lightstrip in place with its adhesive backing or cable clips.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the lightstrip, do not sharply twist or bend the lightstrip 90° or more

1. Peel the adhesive backing off the lights, then attach the lights where you want them.
2. Optional: Attach the double-sided tape (not included) to the back of the light control, then attach it where you want it.

Notes:

• Make sure that the lightstrip is unrolled, otherwise it can damage the lightstrip or cause a fire.
• Every surface is different, and additional adhesive may be used if the LED tape detaches from the surface. Small pieces of clear tape can be used.

Cable clips

1. Make sure that your mounting location is clean, dry, and free of oils.

2. Remove the adhesive backing on a cable clip, and push it firmly where you want to mount your lightstrip.
   

3. Align the lightstrip with the cable clip.
