Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Verify that the power plug is securely connected to the mains outlet and the driver is properly connected to the light fitting. Check the fuse or breaker for the circuit.
Light flickers
Ensure all connections between the light, driver, and plug are secure. If the flickering persists, the driver or LED unit may be faulty.
Cannot change light color temperature
Ensure the power to the light is switched off at the wall. Locate the small switch on the back of the light fitting and try moving it firmly to the desired position. Ensure the switch is fully engaged.
