Assembly & Installation

Follow these steps for safe and correct assembly. Recommended tools: Phillips screwdriver, pencil, spirit level, drill.

  1. Plan Mounting Location: Choose a solid wall or ceiling away from curtains and heat sources. Ensure proximity to a power outlet.
  2. Mount Bracket: Hold bracket against wall, mark screw holes. Drill holes, insert wall plugs, and secure bracket with screws.
  3. Connect Light (if required): For hardwired models, connect wires (Live, Neutral, Earth) to household wiring following local electrical codes. For plug-in models, proceed to step 4.
  4. Attach Light Fixture: Align the fixture with the bracket and secure it as per instructions (e.g., twist-lock or screw fastening).
  5. Final Check: Ensure all connections are secure and the fixture is stable.

CAUTION! If unsure about electrical work, consult a qualified electrician.

Operation & Controls

Operation is simple via the main power switch or an in-line switch on the cord.

To Turn On: Plug into wall outlet and press the power switch to the ON (I) position.

To Turn Off: Press the power switch to the OFF (O) position.

Dimming (if applicable): Use with a compatible trailing-edge dimmer switch. Do not use with standard leading-edge dimmers as this may cause flickering or damage.

NOTE: Allow a few seconds for the LED to reach full brightness after switching on.

Mounting Options

The PILSKOTT is designed primarily for wall mounting.

  1. Wall Mounting (Standard): Use the provided bracket. Ensure wall material can support the fixture's weight.
  2. Surface: Mount on a flat, vertical surface. Do not mount on sloped or uneven surfaces without proper adaptation.

Tip: Use a spirit level to ensure the fixture is straight before final tightening.

Care & Maintenance

Unplug the light from the power outlet before any cleaning.

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe the diffuser and body. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or sprays.
  2. LED Replacement: Most models have non-replaceable integrated LEDs. If replaceable, ensure the replacement LED matches the specifications (socket type, wattage, voltage).
  3. Inspection: Periodically check the power cord, plug, and mounting for any signs of damage.

WARNING! Never immerse the light fixture in water or other liquids.
