The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment located near devices.IMPORTANT : la gamme et la performance du système de contrôle sans fil dépendent hautement de la chose suivante : (1) la distance entre les artifices; (2) la disposition de la maison; (3) les murs séparant des artifices; et (4) l'équipement électrique se positionnait près des artifices.Installation Instructions1 Turn OFF the power by switching off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse and testing that the power is off before wiring!2 Ensure that the Dimmer capacity matches the load requirements. In multi-Dimmer installations, a reduction of the Dimmer's capacity is required to allow the Dimmers to be installed side-by-side in the same wall box. The Dimmer capacity depends on the number "ganged" in the wall box as follows: • 1 gang = 600 W / VA maximum• 2 gang = 500 W / VA maximum per dimmer• 3 or more gang = 400 W / VA maximum per dimmerIf installing in multi-gang scenarios, use pliers to remove the inner-side break-away tabs: Bend each one back and forth until it breaks off. Remove the inner-side tabs ONLY on any device side that will be adjacent to another device. DO NOT remove tabs on any side that will become the outer side of a group of devices.3 Identify your wiring application and see the appropriate diagram in "Sample Wiring Configurations."• Single-Location Scenario—Power Source at Wall Box• Single-Location Scenario—Power Source at Light Fixture4 Prepare wires by removing the pre-cut insulation from the appropriate Dimmer leads. Wire insulation should be stripped back 5/8 of an inch from the wire end (as shown).5 Connect the Dimmer wires to the wall box wires using the wire nuts according to the relevant wiring diagram. See “Sample Wiring Configurations.” 6 Mount the Dimmer into the wall box by partially securing the wall box screws attached to the Dimmer. Ensure that the word "Top" on the Dimmer frame is facing up. Bend the wires in a zigzag pattern so that they easily fold into the wall box.

WARNING! Ground the Wireless Dimmer in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) requirements. Although the dimmer's aluminum yoke plate and green ground wire are directly bonded together inside the dimmer, DO NOT rely solely upon the yoke plate's contact with a metal wall box for adequate grounding. Use the dimmer's ground wire to make a secure connection to the safety ground of the electrical system.AVERTISSEMENT : Risque de Décharge électrique. Fondez [l'artifice] conformément au Code Électrique national (NEC) les exigences. Bien que la plaque de joug en aluminium du variateur et le fil de garde vert soient directement bonded ensemble intérieurs au variateur, ne dépendez pas uniquement sur le contact de plaque de joug avec une boîte murale en métal pour les bases adéquates. Utilisez le fil de garde du variateur pour faire une connexion sûre à la terre de sécurité du système électrique.IMPORTANT! Not grounding this product according to the preceding may result in an installation less immune to damage caused by electrical disturbances, such as lightning, and void the warranty.IMPORTANT : Pas les bases de ce produit selon la précédence peuvent s'ensuivre dans une installation moins immunisée pour nuire provoqué par les troubles électriques, comme la foudre et le vide la garantie.7 If you are using the Control4 push-on (screw-less) wall plate that shipped with your Dimmer:a. For a single-gang scenario, attach the black plastic sub-plate using the provided sub-plate screws.IMPORTANT! Tighten the screws until the back side of the metal yoke plate is even with the wall surface, but no farther. Over-tightening can damage the dimmer and cause mechanical malfunction. Do NOT use a power screw driver to install this device as this may lead to over-tightening.IMPORTANT : Serrez les vis jusqu'à ce que la face arrière de la plaque de joug en métal soit même avec la surface murale, mais pas plus loin. Le fait desurserrer peut nuire au variateur et provoquer le mauvais fonctionnement mécanique. N'utilisez pas de chauffeur de vis de pouvoir pour installer cet artifice comme cela peut causer le fait de surserrer.b. If you are installing in a multi-gang scenario, only partially tighten the mounting screws, leaving about 1/8 of an inch gap between the wall and the yoke plates prior to attaching the black plastic sub-plate. This allows each device in a multi-gang scenario to conform to the sub-plate, creating a single assembly. Secure the multi-gang sub-plate to all devices using the provided sub-plate screws. Then secure the assembly by tightening the wall box screws the remaining 1/8 of an inch. Do not over-tighten any of the screws, or you will misalign the flat plane of the multi-gang wall plate.c. With the wall plate's removal slot facing down, push the wall plate onto the Dimmer's black plastic sub-plate.8 If you are using a Decora-style screw-on wall plate:a. Do not attach the Dimmer's black plastic sub-plate.b. Align the Dimmer to the wall box and fasten it with screws.c.
