An IP44 rating means the fixture is protected against solid objects greater than 1mm (like wires) and is protected against water splashes from any direction.

Does the 5-year guarantee cover all types of damage?

Are the mounting screws included?

Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Check that the bulb is screwed in correctly and is not burnt out. Verify that the power supply is on and that wiring connections are secure. Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped.
Flickering light
This could indicate a loose bulb or a faulty wiring connection. Ensure the bulb is tight and check all electrical connections.
Visible corrosion on the fixture
Clean the affected area gently with a soft cloth. If corrosion is significant or widespread, contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician, as this may affect the product's integrity and warranty.
