Important Notes
Please read before installing.
1. Caution: Use only with permanently-installed 120 V halogen or incandes-
cent fixtures. To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment,
do not use to control receptacles, fluorescent lighting fixtures, motor-driven
appliances, or transformer-supplied appliances.
2. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
3. Only one dimmer can be used in a 3-way circuit.
4. When no “grounding means” exist within the wallbox then the NEC
® 2008,
Article 404.9 allows a dimmer without a grounding connection to be
installed as a replacement, as long as a plastic, noncombustible wallplate is
used. For this type of installation, cap or remove the green ground wire on
the dimmer and use an appropriate wallplate such as Claro
® or Fassada®
series wallplates by Lutron.
5. For new installations, install a test switch before installing the dimmer.
6. Protect dimmer from dust and dirt when painting or spackling.
7. Recommended minimum load is 40 W.
8. It is normal for the dimmer to feel warm to the touch during operation.
9. Clean dimmer with a
soft damp cloth only . Do not use any chemical
cleaners.
Multigang Installations
When installing more than one control in the same
wallbox, it may be necessary to remove all inner
side sections prior to wiring (see diagram). If pre-
installed, remove the Lutron
® wallplate and
wallplate adapter from dimmer. Using pliers, bend
side section up and down until it breaks off.
Repeat for each side section to be removed.
Removal of dimmer side sections reduces maxi-
mum load capacity. Refer to chart below for maxi-
mum dimmer capacity.
Do Not Remove
Outside Sections
Each Control Has Inside
Sections Removed
Middle Control Has Two
Side Sections Removed
