For easy installation, select an existing light operated by a wall switch for replacement.
IMPORTANT: Avoid mounting light control in an extremely dark area. This may cause the lights to stay on all the time.
For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 feet (2.4 m) above the ground.
Wire the Light Control
WARNING: Turn power off at the fuse or circuit breaker.
1.Remove the existing light fixture.
2.Install the mounting strap as shown using two screws that fit your junction box.
3.The plastic hanger can be used to hold the fixture while wiring. The small end of the plastic hanger can be threaded through the hole in the center of the cover plate. The small end then goes into one of the slots on the mounting strap.
