Getting It Out Of The Box
Congratulations on your purchase of the fresh and y Aria™ Prole WW! Now that
you’ve got your Aria™ Prole (or hopefully, Proles!), you should carefully unpack the
box and check the contents to ensure that all parts are present and in good condition.
If anything looks as if it has been damaged in transit, notify the shipper immediately
and keep the packing material for inspection. Again, please save the carton and all
packing materials. If a xture must be returned to the factory, it’s important that it be
returned in the original factory box and packing.
Powering Up!
All xtures must be powered directly o a switched circuit and cannot be run o a
rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
AC Voltage Switch - Not all xtures have a voltage select switch, so please verify that
the xture you receive is suitable for your local power supply. See the label on the
xture or refer to the xture’s specications chart for more information. A xture’s
listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. Check the
xture or device carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection switch exists that it is
set to the correct line voltage you will use.
Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line
voltage applied. Damage to your xture may result if the line voltage applied
does not match the voltage indicated on the voltage selector switch. All
xtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Ground (Earthing).
Getting A Hold Of Us
