1. Basic safety information
Danger of death through electric shock or fire!
 Installation should only be carried out by a
qualied electrician!
WARNING
LDue to continuing technical progress, abnormalities in
dimming response or radio interference cannot be ruled
out when operating dimmed lamps (in particular LEDs)
LIn order to achieve a good result, several dimmable LEDs
should always be of the same type.
•The ush-mounted universal dimmer conforms to EN
60669-2-1 if correctly installed
2. Proper use
•The universal dimmer switches and dims the brightness
of different lamps such as bulbs, high-voltage halogen
lamps, low-voltage halogen lamps (conventional or with
electronic transformer) or dimmable LED lamps for 230 V
as well as fans
•The brightness can be adjusted by using the buttons
connected to the dimmer and/or via app
•The universal dimmer is equipped with a "gentle" lamp
conserving function for switching on and off, automa-
tic detection of the load type, overheating protection
against overload as well as short-circuit protection

•For use in private and public residential construction, in
closed rooms
•Suitable for retrotting

Risk of electric shock!
The device does not have basic insulation around the termi-
nals/plugs!
Protect against accidental contact during installation.
Maintain a minimum distance of 3 mm from live parts or
use additional insulation, e.g. separating strips/walls.
Always operate electronic and conventional transformers
with the minimum load specied by the manufacturer.
Only use dimmable LED lamps, as normal LED lamps may
be destroyed.
When changing the lamps, switch off the power supply
(at the fuse box) so that the automatic load detection is
reactivated.
Do not connect dimmer load connections (L´) in parallel.
Do not bypass or short-circuit the dimmer.
Do not install any isolating or variable transformers before
the dimmer.
Do not mix wound and electronic transformers in the
installation.
Do not mix wound transformers and LEDs in the
installation.
Do not connect buttons with glow lamps.
