FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device
must not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: TO BE INSTALLED AND/OR USED IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPROPRIATE ELECTRICAL CODES AND
REGULATIONS.
WARNING: IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT ANY PART OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CONSULT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN.
CAUTION (For Incandescent Only): USE WITH INCANDESCENT OR 120V HALOGEN FIXTURES ONLY.
CAUTION (For Magnetic Low-Voltage Only):
1. USE WITH MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS, INCANDESCENT, OR 120V HALOGEN FIXTURES
ONLY. USE A LEVITON ELECTRONIC LOW-VOLTAGE DIMMER TO CONTROL ELECTRONIC (SOLID STATE)
LOW-VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS.
2. WHEN A MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE CIRCUIT IS OPERATED AT A DIM LEVEL, WITH ALL LAMPS INOPERATIVE,
EXCESS CURRENT MAY FLOW THROUGH THE TRANSFORMER. TO AVOID POSSIBLE TRANSFORMER
FAILURE DUE TO OVERCURRENT, USE A TRANSFORMER THAT INCORPORATES THERMAL PROTECTION OR A
FUSE AT THE PRIMARY WINDINGS.
OTHER CAUTIONS:
1. USE ONLY ONE (1) DIMMER PER LOAD. THE SWITCH(ES) WILL TURN THE LIGHT ON AT THE BRIGHTNESS
LEVEL SELECTED AT THE DIMMER.
2. IN A 3-WAY APPLICATION, THE DIMMER MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE LOAD.
3. DISCONNECT POWER WHEN SERVICING FIXTURE OR CHANGING LAMPS.
4. USE THIS DEVICE ONLY WITH COPPER OR COPPER
CLAD WIRE. WITH ALUMINUM WIRE USE ONLY DEVICES
MARKED CO/ALR OR CU/AL.
MULTI-GANG INSTALLATION:
When ganging dimmers, the side sections of the mounting strap
must be removed. Use pliers to carefully bend side sections
back and forth until they break off (see Figure 1). The side
sections dissipate heat, so removing them requires a derating of
the dimmer's capacity (see chart).
MAXIMUM BULB WATTAGE (For Magnetic Low-Voltage
Only):
Low-voltage dimmers are rated in Volt-Amps (VA). The
maximum bulb wattage is determined by the efficiency of the
transformer in the low-voltage lighting system. Transformer
efficiencies will vary from different manufacturers; consider 75%
efficient as average. Use the chart to determine maximum bulb
wattage for typical transformer efficiency ratings.
TO INSTALL:
1.
WARNING: TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN
OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE AND TEST
THAT POWER IS OFF BEFORE WIRING!
2. Remove existing wallplate and switch or dimmer, if
applicable.
3. Remove 3/4" (1.9 cm) of insulation from each circuit
conductor. Make sure that ends of conductors are straight.
4. Connect lead wires per appropriate WIRING DIAGRAM as
follows:
WARNING: CONNECT A MAGNETIC LOW-
VOLTAGE DIMMER ONLY TO THE PRIMARY
(HIGH-VOLTAGE) SIDE OF A MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE
TRANSFORMER. NOTE: Common terminal of a 3-Way
Switch is usually labeled and/or BLACK. Twist strands of
each lead tightly and, with circuit conductors push firmly into
appropriate wire connector. Screw connectors on clockwise

Do you have a question about the Leviton TOGGLE TOUCH TGI06-10 and is the answer not in the manual?

Overview

The device described in this manual is the Leviton Toggle Touch™ Dimmer, designed for single-pole (one location) or 3-way (multi-location) control of lighting. It operates on 120VAC, 60Hz power.

Function Description:

The Toggle Touch™ dimmer combines conventional toggle styling with modern touch-plate dimming. It allows users to turn lights ON/OFF and adjust brightness levels with simple touch interactions. For incandescent and 120V halogen fixtures, it offers models with 600W (Cat. No. TG106-10, TG106-1L) and 1000W (Cat. No. TGI10-1L) capacities. For magnetic low-voltage lighting systems, a 1000VA model (Cat. No. TGM10-1L) is available. The device features a "Soft Fade ON" effect and maintains the last set DIM level when turned OFF. An optional LED indicator provides visual feedback on the ON/OFF status.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Power: 120VAC, 60Hz
  • Load Types:
    • Incandescent/120V Halogen: 600W (TG106-10, TG106-1L), 1000W (TGI10-1L)
    • Magnetic Low-Voltage: 1000VA (TGM10-1L)
  • Minimum Wattage: Total minimum wattage must exceed 40W (for incandescent) and 40VA (for magnetic low-voltage).
  • Wiring: Designed for use with copper or copper-clad wire. For aluminum wire, only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL should be used.
  • FCC Compliance: Complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules, ensuring it does not cause harmful interference and accepts any interference received.
  • Multi-Gang Installation: When ganging dimmers, the side sections of the mounting strap must be removed. This reduces the dimmer's capacity (derating).
    • Maximum Load Per Dimmer for Multi-Gang:
      • TG106-10, TG106-1L: Single - 600W, Two Gang - 500W, More than 2 Gang - 400W
      • TGI10-1L: Single - 1000W, Two Gang - 800W, More than 2 Gang - 700W
      • TGM10-1L: Single - 1000VA, Two Gang - 800VA, More than 2 Gang - 700VA
    • Maximum Bulb Wattage at 75% Efficiency (Magnetic Low-Voltage Only):
      • 1000VA Rating: Single - 750W, Two Gang - 600W, More than 2 Gang - 525W
      • Note: Transformer efficiencies vary; 75% efficiency is considered average for these ratings.

Usage Features:

  • ON/OFF Control:
    • Single Pole: Toggle UP for ON, Toggle DOWN for OFF.
    • 3-Way: Toggle UP or DOWN until the LED turns OFF for ON; Toggle UP or DOWN until the LED turns ON for OFF.
  • Dimming Adjustment:
    • BRIGHTEN: Touch and hold the UPPER touch plate until the desired brightness level is reached.
    • DIM: Touch and hold the LOWER touch plate until the desired dim level is reached.
  • ON/OFF LED (Lighted Version): The LED is OFF when lights are ON, and ON when lights are OFF.
  • Magnetic Low-Voltage Specific Cautions:
    • Must be used with magnetic low-voltage transformers, incandescent, or 120V halogen fixtures only.
    • For electronic (solid state) low-voltage transformers, a Leviton electronic low-voltage dimmer should be used instead.
    • To prevent transformer failure due to overcurrent when operating at a dim level with all lamps inoperative, use a transformer with thermal protection or a fuse at the primary windings.
    • Connect the magnetic low-voltage dimmer only to the primary (high-voltage) side of a magnetic low-voltage transformer.
  • General Cautions:
    • Use only one dimmer per load.
    • In a 3-way application, the dimmer must be connected to the load.
    • Disconnect power before servicing fixtures or changing lamps.
    • Always turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off before wiring.

Maintenance Features:

  • Cleaning: To clean the touch plate, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth using only clean water, then dry thoroughly.
  • Troubleshooting: The manual provides guidance for common issues:
    • Lights not turning ON/OFF LED not turning ON: Check for tripped circuit breaker/fuse, burned-out lamp, or incorrect connection to line neutral.
    • Dimmer not operating (lights not dimming/brightening): Check for miswiring of dimmer BLACK wire to lamp and dimmer BLUE wire to LINE Hot.
    • Lights Flickering: Check for bad lamp connection or if lamp power is less than 40W/40VA.

Warranty:

Leviton offers a limited 2-year warranty to the original consumer purchaser, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal and proper use. The warranty excludes labor for removal/reinstallation and is void if the product is improperly installed, overloaded, misused, opened, abused, altered, or not used according to instructions. Remedies are limited to repair or replacement at Leviton's option.
