INSTALLATION & OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS –

4” (10,2 CM) NON-IC RECESSED LIGHTING KIT

MODELS: CER4R, CER4G10R, CER4G24R

3 in. (7,6 cm) min. gap

Fig. 1

UNPACK THE FIXTURE

Check the contents of the box. You should receive:

Insulation

WARNING: First disconnect electricity at the circuit breaker or the fuse

box. Disconnecting power by using the wall switch is not sufficient to

prevent electrical shock.

Choose the location for the fixture(s), keeping in mind the 6” (15,2 cm) depth

clearance, accessibility for the electrical supply, and the ½” (1,3 cm)

clearance from the joists, floor boards, or any other combustible material.

REMODEL INSTALLATION

MAKING THE HOLE/RUNNING THE SUPPLY WIRING TO THE HOLE

1. Cut a 4 ¼” (10,8 cm) hole into the ceiling after choosing the appropriate

location. A template is provided to assist in making the hole. (Fig. 2)

2. Clear out any insulation necessary to maintain the 3” (7,6 cm) spacing

specified in the “CAUTION” section found in the beginning of these

instructions. (See Fig. 1)

3. Run armored cable (BX) or non-metallic (NM) cable (also known as

Romex) from your circuit breaker or fuse panel to the 4 ¼” (10,8 cm) hole,

providing 6” (15,2 cm) to 8” (20,3 cm) of slack extending below the hole.

Cable having up to 12 AWG wiring may be used. (Fig. 3) (WARNING -

Use cables having wires rated 90°C or more.)

CAUTION

Before assembling your lighting fixture, refer to the “ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONS” section. If you feel you do not have electrical wiring

experience, refer to a do-it-yourself wiring handbook or have your fixture

installed by a qualified licensed electrician.

NOTE: This fixture is a Non-IC type housing. Do not install insulation

within 3 in (7,6 cm) of the housing. (Fig. 1) In addition, the housing

must be installed at least ½” (1,3 cm) away from any combustible

material, such as a wood joist or floorboard. The ceiling surface is

exempt from this requirement and may be in contact with the bottom

part of the housing.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

1. To ensure the success of the installation, be sure to read these

instructions and review the diagrams thoroughly before beginning.

2. All electrical connections must be in accordance with local code and

ordinances. If you are unfamiliar with methods of installing electrical

wiring, secure the services of a qualified licensed electrician.

3. Before starting the installation, disconnect electricity at the circuit breaker

or the fuse box. Disconnecting power by using the wall switch is not

sufficient to prevent electrical shock.

4. 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 is designed to carry a maximum load of 1800

watts. We recommend that the total wattage of all the lights and

appliances on that circuit, not exceed 80% or 1440 watts, of the maximum

electrical capacity.

5. This fixture is designed to be used on ceiling surfaces that are 3/8”

(1,0 cm), 1/2” (1,3 cm), or 5/8” (1,6 cm) thick. It cannot be used on

any other ceiling thickness.

Out of the box, this product can be use in REMODEL applications. In a

remodel application, a ceiling surface already exists and there is no access

above the surface to the ceiling joists. To install this fixture, a hole must be

made in the existing ceiling from the room side. Then, electrical wiring must

be run to this hole and connected to the fixture. The fixture is, finally,

inserted into the ceiling hole, which secures itself to the ceiling surface,

using special remodel clips (provided). To use this product in NEW-

CONSTRUCTION applications, a Commercial Electric plaster frame and

Commercial Electric hanger bars must be purchased, separately. In a

new construction application, the ceiling surface has not yet been installed

and the ceiling joists are still exposed and accessible.

. When the “foot” of each remodel clip touches the ceiling, push the remodel clip through the “I” shaped opening. (Fig. 5) Housing Remodel clip Foot CEILING JOIST INSTALLATION 1. Raise the plaster frame and hanger bar assembly to the desired location between the two ceiling joists. Adjust the width of both hanger bars to the distance between the joists. Position the assembly so that the mounting clips of the hanger bars cup underneath the bottom edges of the joists.

DROP CEILING INSTALLATION NOTE: Drop ceiling installations are similar to new construction installations, except the hanger bars are attached to the T-bars of a drop ceiling grid, instead of ceiling joists, as described below. T-BAR INSTALLATION (Fig. 12) 1. Install a ceiling tile onto the T-bar grid at the installation location. Using the provided template and a keyhole saw make a hole at the desired location in the ceiling tile. 2.
