WARNING:
Disconnect electrical power from
unit before beginning switch installation.
Failure to do so could result in personal
injury or damage to the electrical controls.
Determine the location for the RAISE/
LOWER switch. The wiring lead is 72" long.
• Drill a 3/16" hole into the desired location.
– If switch is mounted into a tile surface, drill
the hole between tiles. Use locally approved
caulking to cover any gaps.
• Center the mounting bracket over the hole
and mark pilot holes. Remove and drill pilot
holes.
• Mount the metal switch bracket with screws
(not provided, choose screws for your type
of countertop or use locally approved
adhesive).
• Tie a knot in the lead as close to the switch
as possible. This will prevent the lead from
being pulled away from the switch.
• Thread the wire lead through the hole in
the top of the countertop.
• Pull wire through hole from underside of
countertop and thread the wire lead into
the end of the wire box.
• Peal film from the back of the switch trim to
expose the adhesive.
• Press trim onto the mounting bracket to set
the adhesive.
• Peal film from the back of the RAISE/
LOWER pad to expose adhesive. Align with
impression and press to set adhesive.
• Remove protective coating from the top of
the trim frame.
Important:
Do not connect wire leads to white
connector until you have threaded the lead
through the countertop hole and through the
end of the wire box.
• Push wire metal leads into the white connec-
tor plug. Pull wire through box leaving
about 2" additional length. See illustration.
• Place plastic strain relief over wire, the wire
should be flat and fit into the area. Do not
pinch or twist the wire. Snap the strain relief
closed.
• Push the strain relief into the hole on the
wire box. It will snap into position.
• Secure wire box to vent with screws
provided.
