MOUNTING AND WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

MOUNTING AND WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

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 electric shock.

2.Remove cap nuts (A) from back plate (B) and remove universal mounting plate or cross bar (C), leaving mounting screws (D) in place (see fig. 1).

3.Secure universal mounting plate or cross bar (C) to outlet box (E) with outlet box screws (F) (not included).

4.Identify color coding of fixture wires (see fig. 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 (G from fig. 1) over wires and twist until there is a firm connection. If wire connector (G) easily comes off, reattach and check again for a firm connection.

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

8.Partially thread green grounding screw (H) into side hole (I) on universal mounting plate or cross bar (C) (see fig.1).

9.Wrap ground wire from fixture around green grounding screw (H) leaving enough excess wire to then connect ground wire and outlet box wire with wire connector (G), if applicable.

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

11.Tuck wires inside outlet box (E) (see fig. 1).

FIXTURE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Warning: This fixture is for indoor use only.

1.Position back plate (B) over mounting screws (D) by aligning back plate openings (J) with mounting screws (D).

NOTE: Position back plate with power switch (K) pointed downward.

2.Secure with cap nuts (A).

3.Install glass shade (L) and plate (if applicable) into holder(s). Secure with thumb screws or ring(s) (O), whichever is applicable.

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

5.Turn power back on at circuit box.
