STEP 2
Installing Your Switch
(mounting with adhesive tape)
IMPORTANT Start by removing the clear plastic tab from the back
of the switch.
1. Identify where you want to mount your Wire-Free Switch (switches are
typically located '48-52" from the floor to the top of the switch).
2. Prior to installation, be sure that the surface is smooth
and degreased.
3. Apply adhesive tape to the middle back of the switch. Adhesive tab
should stick out from the side of the switch. This will be covered by
the wallplate and allows removal if needed in the future.
4. Mount switch to the wall.
5. Screw on the faceplate bracket, then snap the faceplate cover onto
the bracket.
