MOUNTING AND WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: For fixtures labeled for outdoor and wet location use, provide a water-tight seal between the fixture and the mounting surface by using silicone or similar caulking.

NOTE: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) does not require all fixtures to have ground wires. These fixtures meet all UL specifications.

1.Turn off power at circuit box to avoid possible shock.

2.Thread mounting screws (A) into the cross bar (B) (see figure 1).

3.Secure cross bar (B) to outlet box (C) with outlet box screws (D) (not included). NOTE: Mounting screws must be level for fixture to hang straight.

4.Identify color coding of fixture wires (see figure 2 on page 11).

5.To connect wires, take black fixture wire (group A from fig. 2) and place evenly against black outlet box wire. Do not twist wires.

6.Fit wire connector (E from fig. 1) over wires and twist until there is a firm connection. If wire connector (E) easily comes off, reattach wire connector (E) and check again for a firm connection (see figure 1).

7.Repeat steps 5 and 6 with the white (group B from fig. 2) fixture wire and outlet box wires.

8.Partially thread green grounding screw (F) into side hole (G) on cross bar (B) (see fig. 1).

9.Wrap ground wire from fixture and ground wire (metal or green wire) from outlet box (C) around green grounding screw (F) on cross bar (B).

10.Tighten green grounding screw (F). Do not over tighten.

11.Tuckwires inside outlet box (C).

FIXTURE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1.Place back plate (H) over mounting screws (A) (see fig. 1).

2.Secure into place with cap nuts (I).

3.Install lamp(s). Do not exceed recommended wattage.

4.Secure glass shade (J) into holder with thumb screws (K.)

5.Turn power back on at circuit box.
