Important safety notices / avis de sécurité importants
• The LIFX Switch MUST be installed in accordance with local rules and codes.
/ LIFX Switch DOIT être installée conformément aux règles et codes locaux.
• Neutral wire required to the Switch. / Fil neutre requis pour le commutateur.
• Electrical power must be cut obefore installation / repair. / Le courant doit
être coupé avant l’installation / la réparation.
• Do not overload! Total load connected to the switch must be less then 650W.
/ Ne surchargez pas! La charge totale du commutateur ne doit pas excéder
650W.
• Must be protected by 15 amps circuit breaker. An important note to
remember is that circuit breakers can only handle about 80% of their overall
amperage. That means a 15-amp circuit breaker can handle around 12-
amps./ Doit être protégé par un disjoncteur de 15 ampères. Note importante:
les disjoncteurs ne peuvent supporter qu’environ 80% de leur ampérage
global. Un disjoncteur de 15 ampères peut donc supporter environ 12
ampères.
• Make sure to use this product together with 15A circuit breaker in the
upstream. /Assurez-vous d’utiliser ce produit avec un disjoncteur de 15A en
amont.

bracket or box, power the LIFX Switch circuit from the main supply.
Wait 3 seconds. The backlights on the Switch buttons will be faintly
illuminated indicating successful installation. Your LIFX Switch is
now ready for use and configuration using the LIFX app.
General use
The status LED is the small light you see from time to time in the
top left hand corner of the switch when it’s mounted vertically
(portrait alignment). By default you won’t see this light, however
from time it will come on to indicate the Switch is doing something
which is not part of its normal operation. The status LED has the
following codes:
• Green, fast flashing: A Factory Reset is complete and
Switch is now in Setup Mode.
• Green solid: Connected to Cloud.
• Flashing blue: The Switch is in Reboot Mode or performing
an Over-the-Air firmware update.
User instructions.

To Reboot: Hold down the bottom button.
If your Switch is installed horizontally (or landscape) look for the
button furthest away from the status LED light (see image below).
• Flashing orange: Loss of Cloud connectivity
• Flashing red (30 second burst) : Loss of Wi-Fi connectivity.
The light will flash when the following happens: 1) Loss of
Wi-Fi connectivity is first detected, 2) Every 30 mins (for 30
seconds) for the duration of loss of Wi-Fi connectivity, 3)
When a button is pressed during loss of Wi-Fi connectivity.
Flashing lights will typically turn oafter 60 seconds so as not to
become annoying, but will come back on and flash every half
an hour briefly in case nobody has noticed the error. The lights
will also flash if someone presses a button and the Switch is in an
abnormal state.
Common operations.

After 3 seconds the status LED will turn red and there will be a haptic
pulse. Release the button within 2 seconds and the Switch will reboot.
If the button is not released within this period, the Switch will return to

Alternatively and if the Switch is connected to your Wi-Fi, you can use
the LIFX app and go to Device Settings to perform this action.

FAQS Connectivity, setup and troubleshooting
I’m running old Halogen lights. How many can I run from one Switch
channel?
Each switch channel will support a total of 625W of lighting.
So 13 x 50W bulbs could be connected to one channel. Simply sum up all
the lights on the circuit and make sure it totals under 650W.
What type of WiFi do I need ?
Like many devices, the LIFX Switch connects to the 2.4GHz band of Wi-Fi
- not 5GHz. If you have more than one available network on your router
this could mean you are connected to 5Ghz and need to try your other
network. Most Wi-Fi routers have a 2.4 GHz band so if you only have one
network you are likely on the right one to get started.
Does LIFX Switch support 2-way control?
Yes, you can control the lights both with the LIFX Switch and the LIFX app,
as well as any other LIFX compatible 3rd party integrations you have. (For
clarity though, conventional 2-way control isn’t supported)
Can I set a button to control another light in another room?
Yes - the buttons can be programmed to control LIFX lights anywhere in
the home.
Will the Switch work if my internet connection is disabled?
Your non-smart lights will still work, but your smart lights will require
internet connectivity as they will be assigned to the switch via the app. You
can still however operate your Switch and LIFX lights from the LIFX app.

How do I know if my Switch has been successfully set up?
Once the Switch has successfully connected to the Wi-Fi
network the status LED will turn solid green for 60 seconds
before turning o.
I’ve set up a new network/ changed my password, how do I re-connect
my Switch ?
If you’ve changed your Wi-Fi password or set up a new router with a new
password, you will need to factory reset your switch and connect it through
the app as you did the first time you connected it. This is so you can assign
the new, correct password for the security of the device. The configuration
of the Switch should be maintained, provided it was set up using a
LIFX account.
What if the power goes out?
Power outages happen. When the power comes back on, your non-smart
lights will all be in the ostate. LIFX lights that are wired, however, will be on.

1.Power on your LIFX light
2.Download the LIFX app
3.Open the app and follow the
prompts on screen.
