Main risks

• Electric shock when handling connections or installing while the power is live.
• Overheating or risk of fire due to faulty connections, covering the panel, or blocking its ventilation.
• Panel falling due to inadequate fixings, with risk of injury and property damage.
• Cuts or impacts when handling metal profiles, and breakage of the diffuser.
• Glare, eye strain, or discomfort from flicker if using an incompatible dimmer or if it is oriented incorrectly.
• Short circuits and corrosion if installed in damp areas with a model not suitable for that environment.
• Deterioration of cables crushed or pinched between the panel, the ceiling, or the wall.

Safe use

• Switch off the circuit at the mains before installing, removing, or handling the panel.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions and use fixings and plugs suitable for the ceiling or wall material; verify that the surface can support the weight.
• Support the panel while making connections, and use a stable ladder and gloves to prevent falls and cuts.
• Do not cover the panel or its heat-dissipation area; leave space around it and avoid installing it near heat sources.
• Check compatibility with the mains supply and with accessories such as dimmers, sensors, or power supplies; use only recommended accessories.
• In humid areas, use only models specified for that environment and protect the connections as instructed.
• Avoid pinching cables with the ceiling or panel structure; keep conductors tidy and free of strain.
• If you are not electrically trained, consult a qualified installer.

Storage and maintenance

• Store the panels in their original packaging, in a dry, well-ventilated place, protected from impacts and without stacking weight on top.
• Disconnect the power before cleaning; use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not apply abrasive products or liquids directly to the panel.
• Clean the diffuser gently to maintain brightness and avoid scratches.
• Periodically check fixings and cables; re-tighten loose screws without over-tightening and replace damaged parts.
• Keep ventilation areas and the surroundings of the panel free of dust to aid heat dissipation.
• If you detect unusual flicker, a burning smell, clicking or crackling noises, or abnormal heating, disconnect immediately and do not use it until it has been inspected or replaced.
• Do not open or modify the panel or its power supply; internal interventions can damage the product and increase the risk.

Usage restrictions

• Do not install outdoors or in bathrooms or high-humidity areas unless explicitly specified for the model.
• Do not cover with insulating or decorative materials nor recess it into unventilated cavities if the product is not designed for it.
• Do not connect to incompatible dimmers, transformers, or sensors.
• Do not hang objects from the panel or use it as a suspension point.
• Do not use near easily flammable materials without the safety clearance recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not stare at close range when operating at high intensity, especially for children or people sensitive to light.
• Do not use the panel if the diffuser is broken, the wiring is damaged, or the housing is deformed.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets during installation and maintenance tasks.
