To ensure your LITHONIA LIGHTING LLXC Chicago Approved LED Combo Sign and Emergency Light is ready for any situation, regular testing of the emergency lights is crucial. Here's how:

1. Testing the Lights:

   • Locate and press the TEST switch on the unit.
   • Observe the charge (LED) indicator. It should turn OFF, and the emergency lights should activate.
   • The emergency lights should remain illuminated throughout the test.

2. Interpreting the Results:

   • If the emergency lights DON'T come on:
     • Confirm the charger indicator light is ON, showing the battery is connected.
     • Verify the circuit breaker supplying AC power is ON.
   • If the emergency lights appear DIM:
     • This could indicate the battery isn't fully charged. Allow it to recharge for a full 24 hours, then retest.

3. Additional Information:

   • The system includes a solid-state transfer switch, disconnecting the lights from the battery if it discharges.
   • After testing, the automatic charger will recharge the battery to its full capacity.

Following these steps helps you maintain the functionality of your LITHONIA LIGHTING LLXC emergency lighting, providing safety and peace of mind.
