RISK OF BURNS

Controlling Appliances:

Exercise extreme caution when using Z-Wave devices to control appliances. Operation of the Z-Wave device may be in a different room than the controlled appliance, also an unintentional activation may occur if the wrong button on the remote is pressed. Z-Wave devices may automatically be powered on due to timed event programming. Depending upon the appliance, these unattended or unintentional operations could possibly result in a hazardous condition. For these reasons, we recommend the following:

1.Assign Z-Wave controlled appliances to device numbers

10 – 18 on the GE Z-Wave remote. The likelihood of unintentionally turning on the appliance will be reduced significantly because the “Shift” button will need to be pressed before pressing device numbers 10-18.

2.Z-Wave devices controlling appliances should be removed from “All” control setting. Instructions on how to do this are included in the manual for your GE Z-Wave remote.

3.Do Not include Z-Wave devices in Groups or Scenes if they control appliances.

4.Do Not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters or any other appliances which may present a hazardous condition due to unattended or unintentional or automatic power on control.

5.Double check programs for accuracy before using them.
