Maintenance Tips
- Use correct 12V transformer/driver to prevent flicker, damage, or reduced lifespan.
- Avoid touching LED lens with bare hands—oils can reduce optical clarity and heat performance.
- Ensure proper fixture ventilation; enclosed overheating can shorten LED lifespan.
- Check dimmer compatibility (LED-rated dimmers only) to avoid flickering or buzzing.
- Keep fixtures dust-free to maintain full light output and beam quality.
- Do not exceed rated voltage (12V) to protect internal LED circuitry.
- Turn off power before replacing to avoid electrical shock or pin damage.
- Inspect pins (G5.3 base) periodically for corrosion or looseness for stable contact.
