Installation Instructions

Luminaire Installation
Before installation, check the fixture size and the diameter of ceiling opening according to below Tab1.

Tab 1

Fixture Size| Fixture Type| Opening Size in Ceiling (inch)| Fixture weight (kg)| Suitable Ceiling Max Thickness
4| Round| 4.5~5.0| 0.475| 5/8″
6| Round| 6.0~6.7| 0.525| 3/4″
8| Round| 7.8~8.8| 0.615| 1″
10| Round| 10.2~11.2| 1.260| 1″
12| Round| 12.2~13.2| 1.410| 1″
4| Square| 4.5~5.0| 0.600| 5/8″
6| Square| 6.0~6.8| 0.700| 3/4″
8| Square| 8.0~9.0| 0.870| 1″

NOTE: For 10’’ and 12’’ fixtures, a suitable UL Listed frame-kit is recommended to be used with the fixture for installation safety.

Ensure that the power to the unit is turned off. Use proper lockout/tagout procedures. See fig A.
Cut an access opening in the ceiling with the diameter listed in Tab 1, and install the fixture to the ceiling per the codes. Make sure the ceiling can withstand the weight of the fixture and the thickness of ceiling be less than the list in Tab1. Ensure the center of existing J-Box cover is visible through the access opening, and the connections to the branch circuit supply are visible through the access opening.
Connect the black, white, yellow/green leads from the conduit to the power-supply with UL listed wire connectors according to the wiring diagram C2. Be sure all connection are made inside the existing J-Box. Optional Dimmer: When connecting a dimming Controller, connect the violet (dimming+) and pink (dimming-) wires to the violet and pink wires of the fixture.
Note: Cap all unused dimming leads with wire nuts.
Note: Phase cut dimmers must be wired to the power feed “hot” line (L). For 0-10V and phase cut dimming compatibility, please visit: www.gecurrent.com/dimming
Select Lumen (8” luminaires with 3000lm are not lumen selectable):
NOTE: For 1000/650lm luminaires, the default lumen is 1000lm. Push the switch down to activate 650lm. See fig D1. NOTE: For 4000/5000/6000lm luminaires, the default lumen is 6000lm. Push the switch left to activate 4000lm and 5000lm respectively.
See fig D3.
NOTE: For 1800/1000/650lm luminaires, the default lumen is 1000lm. Push the switch up to activate 650lm. Push the switch down to activate 1800lm. See fig D2.
Select CCT
NOTE: For 2700K/3000K/3500K luminaires, the de-fault CCT is 3500K. Push the switch up to activate 2700K, push the switch down to activate 3000K. See fig E1 or E4. NOTE: The cover of the lumen/CCT switches can be used as a tool to select lumen and CCT.
See fig E3.Place the switch cover back after lumen and CCT setting.
ONLY FOR 10IN AND 12IN FIXTURES: The CCT switch plug must be placed back after CCT selection to
avoid light leakage and dust/bug ingress. See fig E5.
ATTACH THE SAFETY TETHER TO THE RECOMMENDED FRAME-KIT FOR REDUNDANT INSTALLATION SAFETY.

CAUTION
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY – Operators shall ensure no appendages are in the path of the torsion springs as they are a pinch hazard when released. The springs will release
when the arm is flexed downward. Be cautious that no body part is in the path of the spring when released.

Load springs into upright position by twisting the springs upward and carefully insert the fixture into ceiling opening. The springs will rotate back into position and hold the fixture tight to the ceiling.
NOTE: For 3500K/4000K/5000K luminaires, the default CCT is 4000K. Push the switch up to activate 3500K, push the switch down to activate 5000K. See fig E2 or E4. NOTE: For 10in and 12in fixtures, the CCT switch is located on the housing sealed by a plug, and the cover of the lumen switch can be used as a tool to select lumen and CCT. See fig E4 .

Connect the violet (dimming+) and pink (dimming-) wires to the violet and pink wires of the fixture.
Note: Cap all unused dimming leads with wire nuts
Note: Phase cut dimmers must be wired to the power feed “hot” line (L). For 0-10V and phase cut dimming compatibility, please visit: www.gecurrent.com/dimming
About selecting CCT or lumen level, refer to step D and E on page 3 and 4.
Only for 10 in and 12 in:
ATTACH THE SAFETY TETHER TO THE FRAME KIT FOR REDUNDANT INSTALLATION SAFETY.
See fig 2E. CAUTION
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY – Operators shall ensure no appendages are in the path of the torsion springs as they are a pinch hazard when released. The springs will release when the arm is flexed downward. Be cautious that no body part is in the path of the spring when released.
Load springs into upright position by twisting the springs upward and carefully insert the fixture to ceiling opening.
The springs will rotate back into position and hold the fixture tight to the ceiling .
