Lightstrip
Do not cut the Lightstrip. Do not bend pin connectors.
Maximum bend 90°, do not bend the Lightstrip on the LED.
Apply once. Do not remove and reapply. Extend up to 10m / 33'

Additional accessories
You can get extension cables to customize your LIFX Lightstrip to
suit dierent places. Cables help you run your lightstrip around
corners, across and through gaps and more.
Be careful when connecting the lightstrip into the connector
cable. The pins can be fractionally dierent in alignment and
forcing the pins in incorrectly will cause damage. Connect the
lightstrip with connector cable with the curved surface oriented
upwards to avoid damaging the pins.

Technical Requirements:
To control this HomeKit-enabled accessory, the latest
version of iOS or iPadOS is recommended. An internet
/ data connection is required while setting up Apple
HomeKit as you will need to connect your LIFX product
to your Wi-Fi access point / router. Controlling this
HomeKit-enabled accessory automatically and away
from home requires a HomePod, Apple TV, or iPad set
up as a home hub. It is recommended that you update
to the latest software and operating system. Use of the
Works with Apple HomeKit logo means that an electronic
accessory has been designed to connect specifically to
iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad, respectively, and has been
certified by the developer to meet Apple performance
standards. Apple is not responsible for the operation of
this device or its compliance with safety and regulatory
standards.
What type of Wi-Fi do I need ?
Like many devices, LIFX lights connect to the 2.4Ghz
band of Wi-Fi, not 5Ghz. If you have more than one
available network on your router, this could mean
you are connected to 5Ghz and need to try your
other network. Almost all Wi-Fi routers will have a 2.4
GHz band so if you only have one network you will
likely be on the right one to get started.
How do I reset a light to factory settings ?
Turn the light o and on at the switch 5 times, about
one switch a second (not too fast). The lights will
cycle through four colors or whites and stop on white
when the reset has been successful. This is how you
would remove a light from a network to then add it
to a new one.
FAQS
Connectivity, setup and troubleshooting
I’ve set up a new network / changed my password,
how do I re-connect my lights ?
If you’ve changed your Wi-Fi password or set up a
new router with a new password, you will need to
reset your lights and connect them through the app
as you did the first time you connected them. This is
so you can assign the new, correct password for the
security of each device.
How do I connect other devices and services like
Voice control or IFTTT ?
This can vary depending on the service you’d like to
use. You can find out about major partner products
LIFX work well with at LIFX.com. For advice on
connecting services you can find instructions for
these at go.LIFX.com

Installation requirements
& recommendation
This device should only be installed in light
fittings and fixtures that are designed to
accept each fitting. Lamps, fittings and fixtures
that are designed to accept smaller or lower
wattage light bulbs may result in the LIFX® bulb
operating below its optimal capacity. For optimal
performance it is recommended that LIFX®
bulbs be fitted into fixtures that provide sucient
air flow through and around the bulb. It is
recommended that the LIFX® bulb be installed
away from other devices designed to receive or
transmit radio signals. It is recommended LIFX®
bulb/s be installed and operated at a minimum
distance of 30 cm from the body. For lamps with
a weight significantly higher than that of lamps
for which they are a replacement, attention
should be drawn to the fact that the increased
weight may reduce the mechanical stability
of certain luminaires and may impair contact
making and lamp retention.

If the device is causing radio interference it is
recommended that the user try:
a. relocating the device to a dierent place;
b. adjust the antenna on the receiving
