Exo Terra PT-2235 Mode D'emploi page 7

Note: For safety purposes it is recommended that either two T8
bulbs or two T10 Bulbs be installed. Do not install a combination
of T8 and T10 bulbs.
3. Insert the bulb into the end cap so that the pins align with the
internal sockets. Push while inserting the bulb into the end cap
to ensure a positive connection.
4. Once the fluorescent bulbs have been inserted into the end
caps, position the bulbs on top of the metal screen cover of the
terrarium (not over the glass as UVB light does not penetrate
glass). Ensure that the surface of the screen cover is flat and
even so that the bulbs will not roll. Ensure that the bulbs are
positioned over the top metal screen portion of the terrarium and
NOT over any glass, plastic parts, or other flammable material.
Failure to do so could result in a possible fire hazard.
5. Keep unit out of reach of children. Keep unit away from curtains
or other flammable objects.
Maintenance:
Warning:
• Disconnect the plug of this light unit, and any other
electrical equipment, used for the terrarium, paludarium or
aqua-terrarium before placing your hands in the water; and/or
performing any maintenance of any kind.
• Whenever installing, removing or changing fluorescent tubes
or maintaining, installing or removing the Exo Terra® Light
Unit or any other equipment, always ensure that it is
unplugged.
• The electrical supply cords of this lighting system cannot be
replaced. If any of the cords are damaged the entire unit
should be discarded
Cleaning the Unit:
1. Do not place the light unit housing near filter outputs or expose it
to water spray or humidity. Do not submerge in water.
2. Ensure that the heat vents are kept free and clear of any
obstruction, dust and debris. Use a cloth to wipe away any
debris that may obstruct the heat vents.
3. No special maintenance is required for the Exo Terra® Light
Unit, other than periodic cleaning with a cloth (never use harsh
chemical products or detergents). To remove calcareous
deposits (bulb sockets), it is recommended to use a mild acid
such as vinegar, followed by a thorough wipe down with a damp
cloth to remove any residues.
4. It is strongly recommended to always follow all the precautions
and procedures outlined in both the Important Safeguards and
Installation Instructions sections.
