Important Notice for Installer

To achieve proper aesthetic installation of the Acenti products, 
the wall surface surrounding the wall box opening must be fairly 
fl at and free of irregularities. The wall box must be level and 
recessed or fl ush to the wall surface. The Acenti installation 
system allows for adjustments that will correct minor fl aws that 
may be present in the installation area.

This device must be installed with the Acenti

TM

 Alignment Plate. 

The Alignment Plate is packaged with the Acenti

TM

 Wallplate, 

which is sold separately from this device.

The Alignment Plate will function properly only if it is mounted to 
a fl at wall surface as described above.

•  Leviton recommends to temporarily position the Alignment  

Plate prior to wiring the device. If the wall box wires extend at 
least 6 inches out of the wall box, it is also possible to install 
the Alignment Plate after the device has been wired 

(refer to 

Wallplate instruction sheet).

•  The Alignment Plate must be installed with the tab towards 

the bottom.

•  Leviton recommends the following methods to 

temporarily

 

hold the Alignment Plate – use of device mounting screw, 
use of wall box wires, or use of electrical tape 

(refer to the 

following fi gures):
