Electrical Installation

This must be done by a qualified electrician.

Turn OFF power at the main circuit breaker and verify it is off with a voltage tester.
Remove the existing light fixture (if any).
Identify the wires in your ceiling: Live (Brown/Black), Neutral (Blue/White), and Earth (Green/Yellow).
Connect the fixture wires to the ceiling wires using the provided plastic connectors: Fixture Live (Brown) to Ceiling Live; Fixture Neutral (Blue) to Ceiling Neutral; Fixture Earth (Green/Yellow) to Ceiling Earth.
Secure all connections and tuck wires neatly into the ceiling box.

WARNING! Incorrect wiring can cause electric shock, fire, or damage. If in doubt, consult an electrician.

Mounting to Ceiling

After wiring is complete, mount the fixture.

Attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling electrical box using the screws provided with the box (not included).
Align the fixture's keyhole slots with the screws on the mounting bracket.
Lift the fixture and hook it onto the bracket. Twist slightly to lock into place.
Secure the fixture with the provided fixation screws if required.
Install any light bulbs if not pre-installed (LED module is typically integrated).

Operation & Dimming

Once installed, restore power and test.

On/Off: Use the wall switch connected to the light circuit.
