your own responsibility to ensure that this fitting is fit
for the purpose for which you have intended it. Eterna
Lighting cannot accept any liability for loss, damage or
premature failure resulting from inappropriate use.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
This product is designed and constructed according to
the principles of the appropriate British Standard and
is intended for normal domestic service. Use of this
fitting in any other environment, for example where
prolonged periods of use may be expected and/or
higher than normal ambient temperatures, may result
in a foreshortened working life.
The lamp supplied with this fitting is a consumable
part and therefore may be outside of any warranty
offered.
Switch off the mains before commencing installation
and remove the appropriate circuit fuse.
When working at heights, please use a suitable
platform.
Disconnect the fitting from the electrical supply before
flash or high voltage testing.
Suitable for indoor use only.
This product is suitable for use in living areas, and
Bathroom zones 1, 2 and dry (Outside) zones only
(see diagram below and current IEE Wiring Regulations
for details). If being fitted in a bathroom a 30mA RCD
must be used.
This product is suitable for installation on surfaces with
normal flammability (indicated by the “F” in a triangle)
e.g. wood, plasterboard, masonry. It is not suitable for
use on highly flammable surfaces (e.g. polystyrene,
textiles).
Before making fixing hole(s), check that there are no
obstructions hidden beneath the mounting surface
such as pipes or cables.
The chosen location of your new fitting should allow
for the product to be securely mounted (e.g. to a
ceiling joist) and safely connected to the mains supply
(lighting circuit).
If the location of your new fitting requires the provision
of a new electrical supply, the supply must conform
with the requirements of the Building Regulations
making reference to the current edition of the IEE
Wiring Regulations (BS7671).
This product is designed for permanent connection to
fixed wiring: this should be either a suitable lighting
circuit (protected with a 5 or 6 Amp MCB or fuse) or a
fused spur (with a 3 Amp fuse) via a fused connection
unit. We recommend that the supply incorporates a
switch for ease of operation.
Make connections to the electrical supply in
accordance with the following code:
Live - Brown or Red
Neutral - Blue or Black
Earth - Green and Yellow
Where this product is used to replace an existing light
fitting, it will be necessary to remove any existing
ceiling rose to allow clearance for installation. If this
is the case, carefully note the existing position of each
set of wires (see diagram below). Where more than
a single set of L, N and E wires exist these must be
transferred to a separate approved junction box or
terminal block (not supplied) which must be insulated
and placed within the ceiling.
Additional red wires may be present in your ceiling
that are connected to the ring live circuit. Do not
connect your fitting to these wires. If these wires are
not terminated in a ceiling rose, join them together in
a separate terminal block (not supplied) and place in
the ceiling. Where more than a single set of L, N and
E wires exist these must be transferred to a separate
approved junction box or terminal block (not supplied)
which must be insulated and placed within the ceiling.
When making connections, ensure that the terminals
are tightened securely and that no strands of wire
protrude. Check that the terminals are tightened onto
the bared conductors and not onto any insulation.
