FAQs

What type of bulbs do I need for the Solis spotlight?

You need two GU10 bulbs, with a maximum wattage of 50W per bulb. These are not included with the fixture.

Can I use LED GU10 bulbs?

Yes, you can use LED GU10 bulbs. They often offer energy savings and longer lifespans compared to traditional halogen bulbs. Ensure they do not exceed the 50W maximum equivalent.

Is this spotlight suitable for a bathroom?

No, the Solis spotlight has an IP20 rating, which means it is only suitable for dry indoor environments and not for areas with high humidity like bathrooms.

What are the dimensions of the spotlight bar?

The bar has a length of 22cm and a width of 7cm. Each spotlight extends approximately 15cm from the bar.

Can I dim the lights with this fixture?

The fixture itself does not include a dimmer. Dimming capability depends on the GU10 bulbs you choose and whether your existing wiring supports dimming.

How do I adjust the direction of the spotlights?

Each spotlight head can be manually rotated 360 degrees and tilted up or down to direct the light beam as desired.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the power supply is active. Check that the GU10 bulbs are correctly installed and not faulty. Verify electrical connections if recently installed.

One spotlight is not working

Try swapping the GU10 bulb with a known working bulb to determine if the bulb is the issue. Check the connection within the spotlight socket.

Flickering light

This could be due to a loose bulb connection or a faulty bulb. Ensure the bulb is seated correctly. If the problem persists, try a new bulb. Compatibility with dimmer switches might also be a factor if used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This fixture requires installation by a qualified electrician. Ensure the main power is switched off at the breaker before installation. The unit is designed for 220-240V mains power. Two GU10 bulbs, each with a maximum wattage of 50W, need to be purchased separately and installed into the designated sockets.

Compatibility: The Solis spotlight is compatible with standard GU10 bulbs. It is rated IP20, meaning it is suitable for indoor use in dry locations only. It is not compatible with dimmer switches unless specified by the bulb manufacturer.

Care: To clean, ensure the power is off and the fixture has cooled down. Wipe the aluminium body with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the powder finish.
