POND LIGHTS INSTALLATION
Check that the installation is done correctly before
switching on the appliance. The connection has to be
made in accordance with local regulations. Carefully check
that the leads are properly connected. If in doubt, consult a
qualifi ed electrician.
• Main secondary (low voltage cable) must not be buried
to a depth of greater than 6 inches (15.2 cm).
• The cord should be protected from abrasion, cuts and
any other damage.
• Do not use the pond lights for any other purpose other
than that for which it is intended.
• Do not use this appliance in swimming pools or other
applications where people are immersed.
• These pond lights are made to function completely
immersed in water at temperatures between 5°C and
35°C (40ºF and 95ºF). Do not use in conditions where
temperature drops below freezing (0°C / 32°F)
• All installer completed cable connections must be
located outside of the pond or fountain.
INSTALLING THE PRE-WIRED LIGHTS AND
TRANSFORMER
The lights and transformer are already connected to make
installation fast and easy. Simply keep the following in
mind before installation.
LOCATION OF THE TRANSFORMER
When planning where to install the transformer, make sure
that the power cord is long enough to extend from the
electrical socket into which you will plug the transformer
to the point where you will mount the transformer.
Transformer must be in sheltered location a minimum of
1 m (39") above ground.
LOCATION OF THE LIGHTS
When planning to install the lights, make sure that the
cord length between the lights and the transformer can be
extended suffi ciently to the desired location in or near the
pond.
MOUNTING THE TRANSFORMER
DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS!
There is a photocell sensor wired to the transformer that
causes the lamps to AUTOMATICALLY turn ON at dusk and
OFF at sunrise. Install the transformer in such a position
that its sensor is not blocked by shrubbery or other
obstructions, and is not directly in front of an artifi cial
lighting source that may shine directly upon it and cause
the unintentional switching on/off of the pond lights.
Mounting:
Mount the transformer horizontally on a solid
surface beyond the reach of small children and at least
1 m (39") above the ground.
Transformer Mounting:
Secure the transformer to the
mounting surface with either #8 x 1" round head wood
screws or if mounting on a concrete/brick surface use an
appropriate masonry anchors. Utilizing the two preformed
tabs extending from the transformer housing securely
fasten to the mounting surface.
PLUGGING IN THE TRANSFORMER
After the lights and transformer have been properly
installed, plug the transformer power cord into a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected socket.
WARNING
(for U.S.A. and Canada only): This appliance
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
As a safety feature, this plug will fi t in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fi t fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed
electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug
can be fully inserted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety
feature.
