4.

Carefully position all wires to provide room in outlet box for Power
Extender. All Power Extenders must have 4-1/2" spacing above
and below each unit for proper ventilation and heat dissipation

(refer to Figure 4)

. Line voltage wiring should be at least 6 ft. away

from sound or electronic equipment wiring. Mount Power Extender
to wall box with “TOP” facing up as follows

 (refer to Figure 3)

.

For Wall Box Mounting:

 Refer to Figure 1A.

For Flush Mounting:

 Refer to Figure 1B.

For Panel Mounting (not shown), 

Proceed as follows

:

a.

The enclosure must be in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.

b.

Leviton DOES NOT recommend using a door to enclose the front of a panel, since this restricts
airflow to the controls.

c.

If mounting multiple controls in an enclosure:

Ambient temperature within an enclosure “MUST REMAIN BETWEEN” 32˚-104˚F (0˚-40˚C).

If not mounting in a metal enclosure, all units “MUST” be mounted in a wall box.

d.

To improve heat dissipation of controls, remove the faceplate from the unit.

5.

Restore power at circuit breaker or fuse.

6.

Turn ON the dimmer.

7.

Using the dimmer control, verify that the load DIMS and BRIGHTENS smoothly and the lamps do
not flicker.

8.

 Attach wallplate by aligning tabs on back of plate with grooves in fins on Power Extender 

(refer to

Figure 1A and Figure 1B)

INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.
