Maintenance and care

The following sections describe maintenance work that is required for optimal and trouble-free operation. Regular maintenance extends the service life and ensures the function of the products over a long period of time.

• During maintenance and servicing, always disconnect the lighting from the mains. 
  If necessary, we recommend cleaning with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
• Permanent moisture as well as limescale and dirt deposits can negatively affect the light quality, performance and service life of the LED bars.
• For closed covers, we recommend using the CleanCover.
• For light sources that cool passively via the ambient air, choose a well-ventilated location. Complete enclosure leads to a build-up of heat and impairs the service life. With closed aquarium covers, the existing openings for cables and hoses are usually sufficient for ventilation; observe the heat development and create additional openings if necessary.
• Compared to fresh water, seawater is an extremely aggressive medium and only very few materials can withstand direct and permanent contact. In order not to shorten the life of the LED bars unnecessarily, appropriate precautions should be taken when using them in seawater. A glass cover on the aquarium is probably the best protection for the lighting. The water cooling system can only be used in marine environments with the TITAN extension!

In addition, the instructions in the operating manual must be observed.
