Stainless Steel PIR Lantern G03131P Care & Instruction Manual Please read and retain these instructions for future reference Issue 1 25/2/2019 1
This light fitting must be installed in accordance with the Institution of Electrical Engineers (BS 7671) Wiring Regulations and the current Building Regulations. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. WARNING If in doubt about the installation of this light fitting or difficulty is experienced consult a qualified electrician. Ensure that the power is switched off at the fuse box, and remove the relevant fuse or circuit breaker before installing this fitting.
Selecting a location 1. Select a suitable location for your lantern where it will not cast heavy shadows, obstruct headroom or any outward opening doors. 2. Avoid positions that are exposed to very heavy rain or snow. 3. Ensure that there is sufficient space above the lantern to be able to unscrew and remove the glass cover. 4. The chosen location should allow for the product to be securely mounted and safely connected to the mains supply (lighting circuit).
Securing the light fitting to the wall 1. Isolate the lighting circuit to be used and remove the circuit fuse or switch off the circuit breaker at the consumer unit (fig.1). 2. Remove any existing light fitting from the wall. 3. Unscrew the domed nuts and separate the back plate from the light fitting. Gently pull the terminal block to separate from the back plate (fig. 2). Fig. 2 Fig. 1 4. 5.
6. 7. Using the point of a brad awl or screwdriver, make a small hole in the centre of the cable grommet and feed the cable and insulation through the grommet (fig. 4). Check the fixing bolts are still in position, before securing the back plate to the wall using the screws supplied (fig. 4). Fig. 5 Fig. 4 8. Ensure that gasket is in position and make the electrical connections (fig. 5) - see section ‘Connecting to the mains supply’. 9.
Connecting to the mains supply Connect this unit to a lighting circuit protected by a 5-Amp fuse or 6Amp miniature circuit breaker. If this unit is to be connected to a ring main, a fused connection unit fitted with a 3-Amp fuse should be installed. The colours of current incoming UK supply cables should conform to those shown below.
Any existing mounting plate or rose must be removed before installing this fitting. When installing, a ‘loop in’ wiring system may be encountered. If these are encountered, the wires from the existing rose or loop must be transferred to the terminal block as per the diagram below. It is recommended that a qualified electrician carries this out, only attempt to connect the fitting if electrically competent. Notes This product must be earthed – if no earth wire is available, consult an electrician.
Fitting and replacing the bulb (not included) 1. Switch off the lantern and allow the fitting to cool completely. 2. Carefully unscrew the glass cover and place to one side (fig. 8). Take care of the glass cover supplied, as replacements are not available. 3. Remove (unscrew) any spent bulb and replace with one of the same type (Max 60W E27 (Edison screw) GLS or 8 – 10 W LED Energy Saving bulb). Handle the new one carefully and screw in firmly, taking care not to cross threads (fig. 9).
Motion detector range The PIR detects heat or movement in a fan shaped arc of approximately 110˚ for a distance up to 7 metres. The detection distance will depend on the installation height and the weather conditions. Each time movement is detected the lamp will illuminate. Activation time interval The length of time that the lamp will illuminate can be set between 10 seconds and 5 minutes (from last time movement is detected). Adjust the left hand control using a flat head screwdriver.
Activation light level The sensor can be set to activate whenever heat or movement is detected (irrespective of daylight level) or only to operate in the hours of darkness. Adjust the right hand control using a flat head screwdriver. Turn knob fully anticlockwise for the sensor to operate in daylight. Turn knob to the midpoint for sensor to operate at dusk.
Care instructions The glass cover can be removed from the light fitting and washed in warm soapy water. Ensure it is dried thoroughly before refitting. Do not use abrasives as these may scratch the surface. Wipe external surfaces of the light fitting with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasives as these may scratch the surface and NEVER use a wet cloth or immerse in water.
