• Turns off the light if the room becomes brighter, for instance due to opening a window
shade. You can control the brightness setting for this feature.
Selecting Where to Use the Auto Switch
The Lights Out™ Auto Switch can be installed on toggle-style light switches, including
switches that are part of a “ganged” multi-switch outlet.
Use the Auto Switch in a location where the light switch has a clear view of room occupants,
and where occupants are likely to be moving within range of the detector. Note that the Auto
Switch will turn the lights off if it does not detect motion within the selected time period. The
Auto Switch is especially useful in areas where a light is likely to be left on unnecessarily.
Ideal locations are entry ways, bathrooms, garages, offices, basements and playrooms.
The Auto Switch is
not
compatible with the following:
• Paddle-style switches
• Heavy-duty industrial-grade switches
• Toggle switches with side-to-side motion, rather than up-and-down motion
• “Three-way” switches (where the light is controlled by more than one switch)
• Dimmer switches
Assembly/Set-up
This product requires three AA batteries (not included).
Installing the Batteries
NOTE:
Use only with the specifically designated batteries (AA non-rechargeable alkaline or
lithium). Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
• Open the battery compartment cover (I) as shown in
figure 1
.
• Insert batteries in the orientation indicated, making sure to match (+) and (-) terminals to the
illustration inside the compartment, then close the battery compartment cover.
Instructions for Mounting to a Switch
NOTE: Do not install where more than one
light switch controls a single light fixture (a
“three-way” switch).
• Note whether the light turns on when the
switch is flipped up, or when the switch is flipped
down. The Auto Switch can be configured for
either case.
• Use a piece of tape (not included) to tape the
switch plate in place before the screws are
removed. See
figure 2
. You can skip this step if
the switch plate is held to the wall with more
than two screws (for example, when there is
more than one switch.)
• Remove the two screws from above and
below the switch you want to control.
• Orient the mounting plate as shown in
figure 3
, and line up the mounting plate holes
with the holes in the cover plate.
• Using the two screws supplied, lightly screw in
the mounting plate (j) over the switch plate as
shown in
figure 3
.
• Tighten both screws until just snug. Do not
over-tighten.

To reduce this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -), marked on the battery

"Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently
come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.
The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) prohibits
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting
individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulat-
ed from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

The Lights Out™ Auto Switch will reduce your electricity usage and save you money by
turning off a light when it is not needed. It uses motion and light detectors to automatically
control an existing toggle-style light switch.
The Auto Switch performs these functions:

• Turns off the light when no motion has been detected for a selectable time period.
• Does not turn on lights if the room is already illuminated with sunlight. You can control the
brightness setting for this feature.
