Set-up Instructions
To prevent damage during shipping, the Verilux® bulb is surrounded
by protective padding. Carefully remove and dispose of the protective
padding. Check to ensure that the bulb is fully seated and has not
come loose from the socket during shipping. There should be no gap
between the bulb and socket.
How Light Enchanced Learning Works
When it comes to maximizing study time, the SmartLight™ is an ideal
study partner. This lamp is designed with Verilux’s patented Natural
Spectrum® Daylight, a type of full spectrum lighting that replicates
key wavelengths of natural daylight, to help students read faster with
greater comprehension, study longer without eyestrain, and improve
productivity, focus and concentration. Research using full spectrum
lighting in a school setting resulted in significantly greater student
achievement when compared to other light sources. And naturally lit
study environments have also proven to positively impact students’
abilities to understand study materials, resulting in increased math
and reading test scores. The SmartLight combines over 50 years of
research to scientifically tune light to the needs of the human eye. At
home, college or office, the SmartLight is the perfect study partner.
Scientifically Tuned to the Human Eye™
The back of the human eye has light receptors, called cones and rods,
located in the retina. Cones respond to different color wavelengths and
rods handle depth perception and contrast.
Under typical interior lights the rods are not well stimulated, which can
cause visual fatigue. The SmartLight stimulates the rods to respond
more efficiently and provides optimal wavelengths for the cones
which helps you read faster with greater comprehension, study longer
without eye strain, and improve focus while studying.
With the SmartLight, your eyes can see superior color representation
as if you were outside and therefore can function with more clarity and
less effort.
We hope you enjoy the benefits of our longstanding efforts to create
the finest lamps and lighting in the world.

CHECK
SOLUTION
Has the plug come
loose?
Insert plug securely into wall outlet.
Is the bulb old?

Come On
Check bulb for blackening/darkening at bottom of spiral where it joins the
base (an indicator of bulb life) and replace bulb.
Be sure the bulb is securely seated into socket, repeat the bulb
installation process.
Is the bulb connected

Sometimes when a new bulb is turned on for the first time the tube will
darken, but this will fade after a few minutes.
With older bulbs, darkening of the tube indicates end of bulb life (this
doesn’t affect operation except to reduce the amount of light available
since the phosphor in that area has become inactive). Bulb replacement
is recommended.
