WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD.
May result in serious injury or
death. Turn off power at circuit
breaker or fuse before installing.
1. CAUTION: Use only with permanently installed
fixtures with dimmable screw-in compact fluorescent,
dimmable LED, halogen, or incandescent lamps.
To avoid overheating and possible damage to other
equipment, do not use to control receptacles, motor-
driven appliances, or transformer-supplied appliances.
2. Install in accordance with all national and local
electrical codes.
3. When no “grounding means” exists in wallbox, the
National Electrical Code (NEC®) allows a control to be
installed as a replacement when a plastic faceplate with
plastic fasteners is used, or the circuit is protected by a
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Lutron wallplates
meet this requirement. Cap or remove green wire before
screwing control into wallbox.
4. Protect the dimmer from dust and dirt when painting or
spackling the wall.
5. It is normal for the dimmer to feel warm to the touch
during operation.
6. Clean the dimmer with a soft damp cloth only. Do
not use any chemical cleaners. For more information,
please see lutron.com/cleaning
7. For indoor use only.
