Important Notes
Please read before installing.
1. Caution: To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not use to
control receptacles, fluorescent or neon lighting fixtures, transformer-supplied appliances,
solid state fan motors, or exhaust fans. For exhaust fans use Lutron fully variable fan speed
controls.
2. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
3. When no “grounding means” exist within the wallbox then the NEC
® 2005, Article 404.9
allows a wall control 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 wall control and use an appropriate wallplate such as
Lutron’s
Claro
®
series wallplates.
4. The
Maestro
®
IR dual fan/light control system consists of a Wall Control and a Canopy
Module. Both must be installed correctly before attempting to control the fan/light fixture. Do
not attempt to mix Lutron controls with those from other manufacturers, or mix Lutron
controls not labeled for use together.
5. This system is not compatible with fans having a control system built into the motor.
6. Do not paint Wall Control or Canopy Module.
7. Do not use where total lamp wattage is less than 40 W or greater than 300 W.
8. Operate between 32 °F (0 °C) and 104 °F (40 °C) room temperature. For indoor use only.
9. Wall Control may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.
10. Recommended wallbox depth is 2.5 in (64 mm) minimum.
11. Clean Wall Control with a
soft damp cloth only
. Do not use any chemical cleaners.
12. This system cannot be used to change the direction of the fan. To change the fan direction,
stop the fan, and then change the position of the switch located on the body of the fan.
13. To maximize light bulb life, use bulbs recommended for fan or “rough service” use.
14. Do not use pull chains to operate fan/light after installing this system.
15. Canopy Module must be installed within a fan canopy enclosure.
16. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the 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.
IR Quiet Fan Speed and Incandescent/
Halogen Dimmer Single-Location System
Fan/Light
Warning: For use with one ceiling paddle fan and light only. Do not use with an
exhaust fan or more than one fan.
One ceiling fan only No exhaust fans
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 radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Multiple Gang Application
Maestro IR®
fan controls may be ganged together with Maestro IR® dimmers, but
should not be ganged with other
Maestro IR®
fan or fan/light controls. If ganged with
Maestro IR
® dimmers, button presses on a Dimmer IR transmitter will affect all
light controls; button presses on a Fan IR transmitter will affect only the fan
control.
• Pressing the ON FULL button will cause each control to fade to its highest level,
regardless of whether some are on and some are off.
• Pressing the OFF button will cause all controls to turn off.
• Pressing the RAISE or LOWER buttons will change the control level on all units at the
same rate until the button is released or until the controls have reached their
maximum or minimum level. If any units are off when the RAISE button is pressed,
they will turn on at the minimum control level.
• To save your favorite control level, adjust all the controls to the desired level, then
press and hold the FAVORITE button for about 3 seconds until the LEDs begin to
flash. Once your favorite level is set, pressing the FAVORITE button will cause each
control to return to
your programmed favorite level.
