Product Information
Full details
This Paulmann 29104 LED reflector is designed for users who need focused, neutral white light for accentuating specific areas or objects. Its key benefit is the 3-step dimming function controlled by a standard light switch, offering versatility without requiring special dimmers. A caveat is its 'G' energy efficiency rating, meaning it consumes more energy compared to higher-rated bulbs.

Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up
Check that the power is on and the bulb is securely seated in the GU5.3 fitting. Try the bulb in another compatible fitting to rule out fixture issues.
Dimming function not working correctly
Ensure you are using a standard ON/OFF light switch. Cycle the switch ON-OFF-ON quickly to test the different dimming steps. If issues persist, consult an electrician.
Flickering light
This can sometimes occur with incompatible dimmer switches (though this bulb is designed for standard switches) or loose connections. Ensure the bulb is properly seated and check wiring connections if comfortable doing so, otherwise consult a professional.
Light is too dim/bright
Cycle the light switch ON-OFF-ON to find the desired brightness level. The bulb has three preset levels.
