CAUTION! RISK OF OVERHEATING! The
lamps in the fairy lights have a power input of
0.455 W each. This wattage not only produces

Keep away from ponds and other water reser-
voirs. Install the rope light at least 2 metres away
from water containers. Avoid place that might
flood after heavy rainfall.
If using the rope light outdoors, make sure it is
connected to a socket which is protected with
a faulty voltage protection switch (FI or RCD)
for a maximum faulty voltage up to 30 mA.
The rope light is protected against splashes of
water (IP44) as long as the socket meets the
minimum protection standard.
Make sure the rope light is not laid down in
areas where lawn mowers, trimmers, scissors or
similar cutting tools are used.
