- Before installing, servicing, or performing routine maintenance upon this equipment, follow these general precautions.
- Installation and service of luminaires should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
- Maintenance of the luminaires should be performed by person(s) familiar with the luminaires’ construction and operation and any hazards involved. Regular fixture maintenance programs are recommended.
- It will occasionally be necessary to clean the outside of the refractor/lens. Frequency of cleaning will depend on ambient dirt level and minimum light output which is acceptable to user. The refractor/lens should be washed in a solution of warm water and any mild, non-abrasive household detergent, rinsed with clean water and wiped dry. Should optical assembly become dirty on the inside, wipe refractor/lens and clean in the above manner, replacing damaged gaskets as necessary.
- DO NOT INSTALL DAMAGED PRODUCTS! This luminaire has been properly packed so that no parts should have been damaged during transit. Inspect to confirm. Any part damaged or broken during or after assembly should be replaced.
- Recycle: For information on how to recycle LED electronic products, please visit www.epa.gov.
- These instructions do not purport to cover all details or variations in equipment nor to provide every possible contingency to meet in connection with installation, operation, or maintenance. Should further information be desired or should particular problems arise which are not covered sufficiently for the purchaser’s or owner’s purposes, this matter should be referred to Acuity Brands Lighting Inc.
WARNING

CAUTION: RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE
- Never connect components under load.
- Do not mount or support these fixtures in a manner that can cut the outer jacket or damage wire insulation.
- Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Never connect an LED product directly to a dimmer pack, occupancy sensors, timing devices, or other related control devices. LED fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit.
- Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not restrict fixture ventilation. Allow for some volume of airspace around the fixture. Avoid covering LED fixtures with insulation, foam, or other material that will prevent convection or conduction cooling.
- Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not exceed fixtures’ maximum ambient temperature.
- Only use fixture in its intended location.
- LED products are Polarity Sensitive. Ensure proper Polarity before installation.
- Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): ESD can damage LED fixtures. Personal grounding equipment must be worn during all installation or servicing of the unit.
- Do not touch individual electrical components as this can cause ESD, shorten lamp life, or alter performance. Some components inside the fixture may not be serviceable. In the unlikely event, your unit may require service, stop using the unit immediately and contact an ABL representative for assistance.

INSTALLATION FIGURES
REQUIRED TOOLS
STEP-BY-STEP
-
Remove fixture components and parts pack(s). Check that all parts are included. See Fig. 1.
Note: Turn off the power at the circuit breaker box!
Wireway cover with LED Lamp -
Remove Wireway Cover (2) by lifting upward on exposed edges of the part. Start in the middle and work outward.
-
Remove the parts pack and place it in a convenient location during installation.
-
Determine appropriate knockout for removal in relation to the incoming power supply. (Knockouts are located on each end and back of the fixture.)
To remove knockouts:
Place a standard screwdriver on edge of the circle (on the opposite side from the retaining tabs) and gently strike with a hammer. Grip the edge with pliers and flex back and forth until removed. See Fig. 2. -
If using romex strain relief bushing, install the bushing into the open hole.
-
Insert the house power supply cable through an open hole or strain relief bushing.
-
Position the Fixture Housing (1) against the mounting surface and with a pencil, mark the screw hole locations to be located at the narrow section of the keyholes. See Fig. 3.
-
Using a drill with a 1/16″ drill bit, make two small pilot holes at the marked screw hole locations. If the drill bit does not encounter a stud or wood surface, use toggle bolts or a suitable fastener depending on structural conditions. If the drill bit does encounter a wood surface, use #10 wood screw.
-
Partially install the Mounting Screws. Position the Fixture Housing against the mounting surface with the screw heads through the keyhole mounting holes. Slide the fixture until the screw heads are through the narrow section of the key holes. Finish tightening the screws to secure the fixture against the mounting surface.
WIRING AND FIXTURE OPERATION CAUTION:
Connect the fixture to supply wires rated for at least 90°C (194°F). Do not use fixtures on dimming circuits. -
Cut supply cable to the desired length. Strip black and white wire leads with wire strippers to expose 3/8″-7/16″ of bare metal. See Fig. 4.
-
Using Wirenuts (3) provided, connect the supply (house) wires to fixture wires – white to white, black to black, and green to green or bare copper ground wire.
