OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE: TIPS AND ADVICE
Keep Your Fermob Lamp Operating At Its Best
Fermob lights are quality products that require a few use and storage precautions in order to preserve all their properties and thus extend their life to the maximum.
Advertisement
• Store in a dry and ventilated area when not in use,
• Regularly clean (more so in areas with high levels of humidity),
• Recharge in a weatherproof environment with a temperature between +0 and +40°C,
• Only use the charging and power supply equipment provided,
• Do not let the lamp’s battery run flat,
• Opt for frequent, short-duration charges.
A battery ’s lifespan depends on several factors:
• The environment in which the product is used (temperature, humidity, etc.),
• The environment in which the product is charged (temperature, humidity, etc.).
Winter Storage
• Clean and restore as required,
• Store your lamp with its battery partially charged, in a dry, well-ventilated spot, sheltered from direct sunlight.
Clean The Surfaces Of Your Lamp
To preserve their original appearance, most of our materials require basic precautions. They can be damaged, to a varying extent, depending on the product type, by:
• mechanical factors: wear and tear, scratches, impact, distortion, etc.
• chemical factors: acids, bases, solvents, etc.
Our surfaces must therefore be cleaned in accordance with the following principles :
• Systematically carry out a preliminary test on non-visible and restricted areas to determine compatibility (e.g. underneath the product),
• Do not use abrasive products or products which may affect the condition of the surface (abrasive sponges, wire wool, pads, scouring creams or powders, dyed textiles which may leave marks, etc.),
• Do not use aggressive chemicals (solvents, alkaline detergents, etc),
• Beware of retention zones in which cleaning products can be trapped, leading to further damage,
• Comply with the conditions of use of the products used (dilution, diffusion, application time, etc.).
POLYETHYLENE, POLYCARBONATE & GLASS MAINTENANCE
Our recommendations are as follows :
Use soapy water for very stubborn dirt.
Apply with a soft sponge or a soft cloth made of a non-abrasive material. Rinse with water.
Wipe carefully with a microfibre cloth to prevent limescale marks.
For indoor lights or with wall-mounted power supply*: use a clean, damp cloth * Remember to turn off wall switch & cut power before cleaning.

Abs
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is a relatively rigid, lightweight, impact-resistant and mouldable thermoplastic polymer (a type of styrenic polymer, to be exact).
Battery Use Cycles
The battery’s capacity gradually decreases with the use of the light. This is a natural phenomenon. A use cycle includes a complete discharge and recharge of the battery (if the battery is discharged to 50% and then recharged to 100%, this is equivalent to 1/2 cycles). On average, Fermob lights vary between 300 and 500 cycles of use per battery.
Bypass
A bypass is a circuit that avoids a device or system.
LUMINOUS FLUX - LUMEN (Lm)
In photometry, luminous flux is a measure of the power of a light source as perceived by the human eye. It’s the most commonly used indicator of the total amount of light emitted by a light source in all directions.
LED - LIGHT EMITTING DIODE
An electronic and optical component that converts electrical current passing through it into light. LED technology has several benefits :
• Cost-efficient
• Eco -friendly
• Instant lighting
• Long life (25,000 to 100,000 hours)
• No hazardous materials present (e.g. mercury)
Polyethylene
Polyethylene is one of the most common thermoplastic resins in use today. It is known for its excellent impact resistance.
COLOUR TEMPERATURE - KELVIN (°K)
Measures the colour temperature of the light. It indicates whether white light is warm (yellow hue) or cool (blue hue). It varies depending on the source. The higher thie figure, the more bluish-white the colour temperature, while light with a lower colour temperature tends towards the red end of the scale.
ALTER THE COLOUR TEMPERATURE TO CREATE THE RIGHT LIGHTING MOOD.
This feature lets you adjust the colour temperature to the task at hand. Warm white (2,700 to 3,300°K) creates a comfortable mood that’s perfect for relaxing. Neutral white (4,200 to 4,500°K) is more soothing and energising. Cool white (5,500 to 6,500°K) is closest to natural daylight, with a slightly blue hue that boosts focus and concentration.
