Pre-Installation
Safety Information
All electrical connections must
be in accordance with local and
National Electrical Code
(N.E.C.) standards.
WARNING: Do not install in
a ceiling with spray foam
insulation.
Check if the power source is suitable for the
added electrical load. Power should be
supplied by a 110/120 volt, 60 Hz single
circuit. A standard 120 volt, 15 amp branch
circuit carries a maximum load of 1800 watts.
The total wattage of all the lights and
appliances on that circuit, should not exceed
80% (1440 watts) of the maximum electrical
capacity.

Installation
NOTE: Do not make the hole
larger than specified by the
template. An oversize hole
may not allow for proper
installation.
NOTE: Do not install this
fixture in ceiling surfaces
thicker than 0.75 in.
WARNING: Use only cables
that are rated for 90°C or
higher.
NM
or BX
This is an IC type fixture and may safely come in direct contact or completely covered
with thermal insulation that has an R-value of 3.85 or less. Some insulation types that
meet this requirement are blanket batting/roll and blown-in loose fill. Any part of this
fixture may safely come in direct contact with combustible materials such as ceiling
joists or floor boards.
To install this power supply wiring (NM cable) needs to be installed from the power
source to the hole.
This fixture is designed for ceiling surfaces that are 0.75 in. thick or less.
This fixture is suitable for wet or damp locations such as a shower stall or bathtub
enclosure, but the area above the ceiling surface must be a dry location.
To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or
other sharp objects.
Dimming

following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

Preparing the location
Choose the location for the fixture, taking into
consideration the 6 in. depth clearance
requirement, the location of ceiling joists and the
accessibility for the electrical supply. Mark the
selected location with a circle using the provided
template.
Using a keyhole saw make a 6.25 in. hole in the
ceiling surface.
Run non-metallic (NM) cable (Romex) or an
armored cable (BX) from your circuit breaker or
fuse panel to the hole.
Provide 6 to 8 inches (15.2 – 20.3 cm) of slack
below the hole. Wires between 0 AWG and 12
AWG may be used instead of NM or BX.
Open the side door of the fixture’s (A) junction box by loosening the bottom screw.
Remove one of the round knockouts located on the top or sides of the junction box if
you are using BX cable or a rectangular knockout on the back of the junction box if you
are using NM cable.
Insert about 5 or 6 in. of the NM cable into the junction box through one of the provided
strain-relief slots.
Remove 3 in. of the cable’s outer sheath and the plastic or paper over-wrap.
Strip approximately 3/8 in. of insulation from the ends of all supply wires.
Attach the black supply wire to the black fixture wire using a wire nut (C).
Attach the white supply wire to the white fixture wire using a wire nut (C).
Connect the fixture ground wire and the supply ground wire using a wire nut (C).
