Curing Times
The quality of the drying result highly depends on the share of pre-curing time in the total curing time.
The higher the share of pre-curing (flashlight), the better might be the drying result. Too fast drying
may lead to small pores / bubbles. As reference value a ratio of 1/3 pre-curing (flashlight) to 2/3 full-
curing (continuous) is recommended. All values are reference values. For exact values please contact
your paint supplier.

Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning of tubes and reflector plate should be done by using a piece of soft cloth or
cotton with alcohol (Note: cleaning must be done after the device is disconnected from power
supply and cooled down). Don’t start the device until the alcohol has evaporated, otherwise it
may lead to ignition.
The device has to be protected by a 16-Ampere-fuse. A fuse with characteristic C for high start-
ing currents is recommended.
The device should be well grounded for safety. The grounding device should be connected to
the proper output port under correct direction. Unauthorized alteration or change of output
port is strictly prohibited. Use of any outlet converter is also not permitted. For any uncer-
tainty, please find a professional electrician to check whether the grounding is correct. Please
make sure the device is well grounded to avoid electric shocks.
If the cable is damaged, contact the manufacturer, service provider or a professional to replace
it in order to avoid injuries and accidents. Please replace damaged cables and power lines as
soon as possible to avoid electric shocks.
For replacing an emitter tube, ask the repair service center or a technician to do so.
If an emitter tube does not start working, it may result from a loose socket/cable. Switch off
the device and check the sockets.
