Main risks

• Electric shock when handling live wiring.
• Ceiling light or panel falling due to inadequate fixing, with risk of injury and damage.
• Overheating due to insufficient ventilation, use of unsuitable bulbs, or covering the unit.
• Fire caused by short circuits, loose connections or pinched cables.
• Exposure to moisture or water jets in unsuitable areas, with risk of electric shock or product failure.
• Diffuser (glass or plastic) breaking, with risk of cuts.
• Glare or eye strain due to inappropriate wattage or dimming; flicker if the power supply or the dimmer is incompatible.
• User falls during installation due to unstable ladders.

Safe use

• Switch off the power at the consumer unit before installing, cleaning or changing a bulb; avoid working with wet hands.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions and use screws and wall plugs suitable for the ceiling or wall material (plaster, brick, concrete, suspended ceiling).
• Check that the fixings can support the weight of the product; if it is bulky or heavy, carry out the installation with two people.
• Before drilling, check that there are no hidden cables or pipes in the area.
• Do not cover the ceiling light with fabrics, decorations or insulation; leave the ventilation clearance specified by the manufacturer.
• Use only bulbs of the recommended type and wattage; on models with integrated LED do not attempt to replace internal components.
• Use compatible switches and dimmers when the product allows; avoid dimmers if compatibility is not specified.
• If you notice a burning smell, sparks, unusual buzzing or persistent flicker, switch off the power and stop using the product.
• In bathrooms or outdoors, choose models with protection appropriate to the moisture level and avoid direct exposure to water.
• Keep children and pets away during installation and collect screws and small parts.

Storage and maintenance

• Store the product before installation in a dry, clean place protected from impacts; keep the packaging to prevent scratches on the diffuser.
• Always disconnect the power before cleaning or adjusting the ceiling light.
• Clean the diffuser with a soft, dry cloth; do not spray cleaners or water directly onto the unit and avoid abrasive products.
• Check screws and fixings periodically; retighten if you notice any looseness.
• Inspect the wiring and housing: if you observe cracks, discolouration or signs of heat, do not use it until the issue is resolved.
• If the diffuser breaks, switch off the power, collect the fragments with gloves and replace with a compatible spare.
• If water or moisture gets inside, do not power the product until it is completely dry and has been checked.

Restrictions of use

• Do not install outdoors or in damp areas without the appropriate degree of protection indicated by the manufacturer.
• Do not use dimmers, timers, sensors or smart-home systems that are not compatible with the model.
• Do not cover the unit or block its ventilation slots; do not recess-mount a surface-mounted model or vice versa.
• Do not modify the wiring, driver or housing; do not bypass safety devices.
• Do not install on weakened ceilings or suspended ceilings without the appropriate fixings; do not hang objects from the ceiling light.
• Do not use these products as emergency lighting or safety signage.
• Do not allow children to handle the product; installation should be carried out by someone with basic electrical knowledge or by a qualified installer if you are not confident.
