Important Notes

Please read before installing.

1.

CAUTION:

To avoid overheating and possible damage to other

equipment, do not use to control receptacles, fluorescent lighting 

fixtures, or transformer-supplied appliances.

2.

Do not use control with a fan and light that operate with the same

switch.

3.

When no “grounding means” exist within the wallbox then the NEC

®

2008, Article 404.9 allows a control without a grounding connection

to be installed as a replacement, as long as a plastic, noncombustible

wallpate is used. For this type of installation, cap or remove the green

ground wire on the control and use an appropriate wallplate such as

Claro

®

or Fassada

®

series wallplates by 

Lutron

.

4.

Use control with a ceiling paddle fan only. Use only one ceiling pad-

dle fan per control.

5.

For new installations, wire a test switch before installing the control.

6.

Set multi-speed fans to their highest setting before installing controls.

7.

Do not wire controls in a circuit with a GFCI breaker/receptacle.

8.

Use only one control in a 3-way circuit.

9.

Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.

10.

Clean control with a 

soft damp cloth only

. Do not use any chemical

cleaners.

Multi-Unit Installations

When combining controls in one wallbox, remove all inner side sections
before wiring (see below). Use pliers to bend each side section up and
down until it breaks off. Reduction of control capacity is not required.

Remove Switch Mounting Screws. Pull Switch from Wall.

Verify the Application.

Disconnect Switch Wires.

not used in a single pole circuit.

Wire the Control.

3-Way Circuit: 

• Connect the green ground wire

on the control to the green or
bare copper ground wire in the
wallbox (see Important Note 3).

• Connect the black wire on the
