warranty.

Installation

a)

Installing or replacing a lamp

CAUTION: Only install a lamp when the device is unplugged from the mains and replace it if it has been

damaged in any way.

The lamps can become hot during operation, so you should let them cool down for at least 10 minutes
before replacing them

Do not install lamps with a higher wattage as they generate higher temperatures than those for which
the device is designed.

Use two lamps (240V/15W) with an E14 socket.

Procedure

Unplug the VDL4DL2 from the mains.

Locate and remove the screw from the ring that holds the plastic ball in place.

Turn the plastic ball anticlockwise gently while holding the ring between the base and the ball.

Remove the old lamp and insert a new one, screwing it clockwise to fix it.

Screw the plastic ball back in place.

Reseat the screw in the ring.

Note: Do not operate the device with an open cover!!

b)

Mounting the Device

Remark: Please consider the contents of EN 60598-2-17 and local regulations during installation.

The supporting structure for the device must be able to carry 10 times the required weight for one hour
without deformation of that structure.

Do not stand directly below the device when mounting, removing or servicing it. Have a qualified
technician check the installation once a year and once before you bring the device into service.

Procedure

Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.

The VDL4DL2 can be used freestanding or suspended from a ceiling using the hanger at the base.

Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating work load limits, determining the
installation material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not
attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result
in injuries.

Respect a min. distance of 50cm between the VDL4DL2s light output and the illuminated surface

Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. In general, lighting effects should not be
connected to dimming packs.

Put the power switch in the ON position. The device will produce colourful light beams at a steady pace.

Put the ON/OFF button in the OFF-position to deactivate the device.
