For wall mount, make sure to prepare 2 screws of 4 mm in length and 5.5 ~ 7 mm in
diameter and prepare 2 screw anchors of matching size.
1. Drill two evenly-leveled holes on the desired wall that are 122 mm apart.
2. Hammer the two self-prepared screw anchors into the holes on the wall.
3. Insert the two-self prepared screws into the screw anchors and tighten to the point where
there are about 1.5 mm left hanging out.
4. Hang the switch onto the screws with all of its ports pointing downward.
