Safety Instructions
Turn off the power before installation, removal, wiring, maintenance and
inspection. Failure to turn off power may cause an electrical shock or
fire hazard.
When wiring, use proper size wires (AWG16 - AWG14) to meet voltage
and current requirements. Tighten the terminal screws to the recommended
tightening torque (1.0N•m). Operating with loose terminal screws may
cause overheating and fire.
Installation Instructions
Panel Mounting
Remove the locking ring and check if the rubber gasket is properly aligned.
Then insert the AP22M unit, align the "TOP" marking with the recess into the
panel cut-out, and tighten the locking ring.

Noise
External noise may cause the LED chips to deteriorate, leading to a reduction
in brightness, a change in color, or malfunction. We recommend the following
solution if this problem exists. However, please note that this solution will
vary depending on the operating environment and the application.
