Carefully unpack your new retrofit kit and lay out all the parts on a clear area. Take care not to lose any small parts necessary for installation.

INSTALLATION STEPS

Route LED retrofit kit wire harness wires (1 white, 1 black) and ground wire (1 green) through wire opening in fixture. Confirm wires will not be pinched by round LED mounting plate or other fixture hardware when reassembled.
Secure the retrofit to the fixture using one of the three installation options available for retrofitting:
Connect wire harness leads to mains wiring inside junction box using (3) wire nuts/connectors (WAGO)
Green wire to ground wire (bare or green)
Black or blue wire to line conductor (black)
White wire to neutral conductor (white)
Place the provided label in the outer space of the luminaire after the LED engine installation has been completed. Label must be visible.
Re-attach and secure the lens to luminaire. (Luminaire will work with or without diffuser)
