WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:

•  To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.

•  If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician.

•  To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, fluorescent lighting, a motor- or a transformer-operated appliance.

•  Use with incandescent or 120V halogen fixtures only.

•  Vizia™ RF dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Vizia™ or Vizia™ RF remotes for multi-location dimming.

•  Use only one (1) Vizia™ RF dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 Vizia™ coordinating remotes without LEDs or Vizia™ RF controllers. The remote(s) will turn the light on at the 

brightness level selected at the dimmer.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:

•  Dimmer may not operate with dioded lamps (Sylvania Designer 16™ or Philips PAR-16™).

•  Total minimum load must exceed 40W.

•  Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.

•  Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2”.

•  Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.

•  Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.

•  Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.

IMPORTANT:

 For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw 

terminals from the old switch being removed will usually be a 

different color (Black) or labeled Common. Tag that wire with 

electrical tape and identify as the common (Line or Load) in both the 

dimmer wall box and remote wall box.

Changing the color of your Dimmer:

Your Dimmer may include three color options. The Dimmer ships 

with the White frame attached. To change color of frame, proceed 

as follows:

 Installing Dimmer by itself or with other devices:

If installing Dimmer in a single device application, proceed with the 

INSTALLING YOUR DIMMER

 section. If installing Dimmer in a 

multi-device application, proceed as follows:

MULTI-DEVICE APPLICATION:

In multi-dimmer installations, the reduction of the dimmer’s capacity 

is required. Refer to the chart for maximum load per dimmer.

 INTRODUCTION

Leviton’s Vizia

TM

 RF components are designed to communicate 

with each other via Radio Frequency (RF) to provide remote 

control of your lighting. Using RF technology allows Leviton 

to provide the greatest signal integrity possible. Each module 

in Leviton’s Vizia

TM

 RF component line is a Z-Wave

TM

 enabled 

device. In a Z-Wave

TM

 network, each device is designed to act 

as a router. These routers will re-transmit the RF signal from 

one device to another until the intended device is reached. This 

ensures that the signal is received by its intended device by 

routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots. The 

Scene Capable Plug-in Lamp Dimming Module is compatible with 

any Z-Wave™ enabled network, regardless of the manufacturer 

and can also be used with other devices displaying the Z-Wave™ 

logo. 

CAUTION:

Remember to exercise good common sense when using the 

Timer features of your remote, especially when scheduling 

unattended devices. There can be some unexpected 

consequences if not used with care. For example, an empty 

coffee pot can be remotely turned on. If that should happen, your 

coffee pot could be damaged from overheating. If an electric 

heater is turned on by remote control while clothing is draped 

over it, a fire could result. 

DO NOT USE

 the remote for the control 

of high power heating appliances such as portable heaters. This 

device will not control lighting that is used with electronic low-

voltage and high frequency power supply transformers, nor high 

pressure discharge lamps (HID lighting). This includes mercury-

vapor, sodium vapor and metal halide lamps.

•   Soft fade ON/OFF 
•   Scene capable
•   ON/OFF LED and Brightness level LED 
•   Two way communication 
•   RF reliability 
•   Ease of installation – No new wiring
•   Compatible with other Z-Wave™ enabled devices
•   No Neutral wire required

 FEATURES

Back Wire (either hole may 

be used)

Back wire openings use #14-12 

AWG solid copper wire only.

•  Make sure that the ends of the wires from the wall box are 

 

  straight (cut if necessary)

.

•  Remove insulation from each wire in the wall box as shown.
• 

For Single-Pole Application, go to Step 4a.

• 

For 3-Way Coordinating Remote (no LEDs) Application, go  

  to Step 4b.

Side Wire Connection

Side wire terminals accept 

#14 AWG solid copper wire only.
