Installation in 6 Simple Steps

1. Switch off the power at your consumer unit before starting any work.
2. Mark the position where you'd like to mount the panel, ensuring spacing aligns with room layout and illumination needs.
3. Cut the hole (for recessed):
   • 6W panel → hole diameter 55-90 mm
   • 12W → 60-135 mm
   • 18W → 60-185 mm
   • 24W → 60-260 mm
4. Connect the wires:
   • Use the built-in driver
   • Attach live (brown), neutral (blue), and earth (green/yellow), if applicable
   • Ensure all joints are secure with a terminal connector
5. Mount the panel:
   • For recessed: insert spring clips
   • For surface: use the supplied adjustable rails
6. Turn the power back on and test the light for correct operation and stability.

Tips for a Professional Finish

Make sure you:

• Double-check that wiring is turned off before starting work
• Use properly rated connectors and cable-rated for ceiling installation
• Respect IP ratings—these panels are IP20 (indoor use only)
• Space multiple panels evenly to ensure consistent lighting without dark spots
