Safety

DANGER: Danger for children

• Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are not within reach of babies and young children.
• Choking hazard: Ensure that children do not detach any small parts (e.g. knobs or the like) from the unit.
• They could swallow the pieces and choke! Never let children unattended use electrical devices.

DANGER:

• Electric shock caused by high voltages inside
• Within the device, there are areas where high voltages may be present. Never remove any covers.
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not use the device if covers, protectors, or optical components are missing or damaged.

WARNING:

• Eye damage caused by high light intensity
• Never look directly into the light source.

NOTICE: Risk of fire

• Do not block areas of ventilation. Do not install the device near any direct heat source. Keep the device away from naked flames.

NOTICE: Operating conditions
This device has been designed for indoor use only. To prevent damage, never expose the device to any liquid or moisture. Avoid direct sunlight, heavy dirt, and strong vibrations. Only operate the device within the ambient conditions specified in the chapter ‘Technical specifications’ of this user manual. Avoid heavy temperature fluctuations and do not switch the device on immediately after it was exposed to temperature fluctuations (for example after transport at low outside temperatures). Dust and dirt inside can damage the unit. When operated in harmful ambient conditions (dust, smoke, nicotine, fog, etc.), the unit should be maintained by qualified service personnel at regular intervals to prevent overheating and other malfunction.

NOTICE: External power supply
The device is powered by an external power supply. Before connecting the external power supply, ensure that the input voltage (AC outlet) matches the voltage rating of the device and that the AC outlet is protected by a residual current circuit breaker. Failure to do so could result in damage to the device and possibly the user. Unplug the external power supply before electrical storms occur and when the device is unused for long periods of time to reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

Features

• Special features of the device:
• Decoration LED spotlight with RGB color mixing (6 × 3 W RGB LED)
• Three operating modes: Sound control, fade program, or automatic programme sequence
• The Micro-USB port for the power supply can be operated with a power bank or the supplied power adapter
• Compact dimensions and low weight
• Ideally suitable for use in party rooms

For technological reasons, the light output of LEDs decreases over their lifetime. This effect increases with a 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.

Installation

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 caused by falling objects: Makes sure that the installation complies with the standards and rules that apply in your country. Always secure the device with a secondary safety attachment, such as a safety cable or a safety chain.

NOTICE: Risk of overheating
The distance between light output and the illuminated surface must be more than 1.5 m (19.7in). Provide sufficient ventilation. The ambient temperature must always be below 40 °C (104 °F).

NOTICE: Use of stands
When mounting the device onto a stand, ensure that the stand is in a safe and stable position and that the weight of the device does not exceed the maximum permissible load capacity of the stand.

Mounting options
You can install the unit in a hanging position. When in use, the device must always be attached to a solid surface or an approved truss. Use the openings of the bracket provided for mounting.
