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.
Do not attach to surfaces which are damp, freshly painted or otherwise electrically conductive (e.g.
metallic surfaces).
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.
Make connections to the electrical supply in accordance with the following code:
This fitting is double insulated, do not connect any part to earth.
You are advised at every stage of your installation to double-check any electrical connections you
