Installation: Hard-Wired Configuration

| IMPORTANT: TURN OFF MAIN POWER TO THE INSTALLATION LOCATION AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
---|---

Step 1: Prepare proper wiring and wall switch.

• Turn off the main power before installing the fixture in order to prevent possible electric shock. Locate the circuit breaker control for the room where you’ll be working and switch the circuit to off.
• A whip is required for hardwire installation. In other words, you need access to a power cable that comes from a Junction Box in the wall. These extra wires are pre-wired together. Ensure that you are using 3 conductor wire (Black=Live, White=Neutral, Green=Ground). Make sure the length of the whip is long enough to reach from the power box in the wall to the mirror. If the whip is longer than needed, you may choose to use a wire cutter to reduce the length.
• If your mirror includes dimming capability but does not include the optional Dimmable Touch Button upgrade, verify that your wall switch supports dimming functionality. The dimmable switch must be 0-10V or Triac.

**Step 2: Map out the installation area and mount the lighted mirror

housing to the wall.**

• Locate the keyhole slots on the lighted mirror housing. The number of keyhole slots depends on the mirror size. You may refer to the included drawing package for specific dimensions of your mirror and locations of the keyhole slots.
• Using a measuring tape and level, determine where you want to mount the mirror on the wall and mark the keyhole slots with a pencil on the wall. Ensure the mirror is correctly vertically positioned.
• Use a stud finder to determine if the keyhole slots line up with wall studs. We recommend mounting to wall studs if possible.
• Keyhole slots that line up with a stud require a #10 wood screw that is at least 2-inches long.
• Keyhole slots that do not line up with wall studs require the included Self-Drilling Drywall Anchors located in the hardware box. The drywall should be a minimum ½-inch thick. Using a screwdriver, insert the supplied E-Z Anchor Toggles into the corresponding pencil marks on the wall.
• To set the clamp behind the drywall, place the mounting screw into the anchor and push or tap firmly until approximately 1-inch of the screw is protruding (do not rotate).
• Secure the housing to the wall with screws through the keyhole slots.

Step 3: Make wiring connections

• Séura lighted mirrors are equipped with an easy-to-install wiring fixture disconnect that can be found on the mirror housing that is now connected to the wall. Refer to your included drawing package to identify the location of the fixture disconnect.
• Connect the whip (extra wires that are pre-wired together) from step 1 to the fixture disconnect. The connection accepts AWG 16 – 12 solid or stranded (19 strands maximum). Using a wire stripper, strip the insulation on the wires back approximately 1/2”.
• On Full Length Lighted Mirrors, we recommend routing the whip from step 1 through the top hole of the center wiring flange and then connecting the whip to the wiring fixture disconnect. This will help keep the whip in place so it doesn’t appear behind the etched mirror glass.
• Open the fixture disconnect by pushing down on the tab that connects the top and bottom pieces. Connect wires into the fixture disconnect using the color code diagram pictured. Reconnect the top and bottom pieces by sliding them together.
• If using a 0-10V dimmable switch, then connect 0-10V dimming signal directly to the driver dimming control wires.
• Turn the wall switch to on and verify functionality.

Wiring Fixture Disconnect

Step 4: Hang the mirror

See pages 10-12 for instructions to connect optional upgrades (such as touch buttons, mirror defoggers and more) from the housing to the mirror.

• If the mirror has a decorative frame, do not hold the mirror by the frame. For framed mirrors and large mirrors, we recommend using glass suction cups to lift the mirror.
• Once the wire connections are made, make sure all wires are tucked into the wire saddles. This will prevent wires from getting pinched between the mirror and housing.
• Hang the mirror onto the housing by positioning the mounting brackets on the back of the mirror so they rest on top of the brackets on the housing. Start by holding the mirror slightly higher than the housing and slowly lower the mirror until the mirror brackets rest on the housing brackets.
• Ensure the brackets are interlocked and the mirror is secure by making sure the mirror is level and evenly spaced from the wall. Gently try to move the mirror glass. If you can pull any of the four corners away from the housing, then it’s not mounted properly. If the glass moves, it’s likely not fully interlocked and you need to repeat this step to align the mounting brackets.

Installation: Plug-In Configuration

Step 1: Prepare proper wall switch

• Ensure a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet is located near the mirror so the plug cord can reach the outlet. We recommending the outlet be located within the middle open area of the housing for a clean look without a visible cord. A compatible outlet should be installed by a licensed electrician according to local building codes.
• If your mirror includes dimming capability but does not include the optional Dimmable Touch Button upgrade, verify that your wall switch supports dimming functionality. The dimmable switch must be 0-10V or Triac based on the configuration of your personalized mirror.

For Full Length Lighted Mirrors Only: Make plug wiring connection.

• Séura lighted mirrors are equipped with an easy-to-install wiring fixture disconnect that can be found on the mirror housing. Refer to your included drawing package to identify the location of the fixture disconnect.
• Open the fixture disconnect by pushing down on the tab that connects the top and bottom pieces. Discard the top piece or keep it if you decide to change to a hardwire configuration in the future.
• Locate the provided plug that contains a wiring fixture disconnect on one end.
  • If the outlet is located inside of the mirror housing, we recommend routing the wiring fixture disconnect end of the plug cord through the top hole of the center wiring flange. This will keep the cord in place so it doesn’t appear behind the etched mirror glass.
  • If the outlet is located outside of the mirror housing, route the wiring fixture disconnect end of the plug cord through a hole in the bottom of the mirror housing. There is a white plastic circular piece at the bottom of the mirror housing that needs to be removed to make the hole. Then push the wiring fixture disconnect end of the cord up through the hole until the strain relief bushing on the cord blocks the hole completely – it should be a snug fit. This is a UL safety requirement. The plug end of the cord should be hanging below the mirror so you can plug it into the wall outlet.
• Connect the two ends of the wiring fixture disconnect by sliding them together to complete the wiring.

Wiring Fixture Disconnect

Step 2: Map out the installation area and mount the lighted mirror

housing to the wall.

• Locate the keyhole slots on the lighted mirror housing. The number of keyhole slots depends on the mirror size. You may refer to the included drawing package for specific dimensions of your mirror and locations of the keyhole slots.
• Using a measuring tape and level, determine where you want to mount the mirror on the wall and mark the keyhole slots with a pencil on the wall. Ensure the mirror is correctly vertically positioned.
• Ensure the GFCI outlet is located within the designated open area of the housing.
• Use a stud finder to determine if the keyhole slots line up with wall studs. We recommend mounting to wall studs if possible.
• Keyhole slots that line up with a stud require a #10 wood screw that is at least 2-inches long.
• Keyhole slots that do not line up with wall studs require the included Self-Drilling Drywall Anchors located in the hardware box. The drywall should be a minimum ½-inch thick. Using a screwdriver, insert the supplied Self-Drilling Drywall Anchors into the corresponding pencil marks on the wall.
• To set the clamp behind the drywall, place the mounting screw into the anchor and push or tap firmly until approximately 1-inch of the screw is protruding (do not rotate).
• Secure the housing to the wall with screws through the keyhole slots.

Step 3: Plug the lighting power cord into an outlet and verify

functionality

Step 4: Hang the mirror

See pages 10-12 for instructions to connect optional upgrades (such as touch buttons, mirror defoggers and more) from the housing to the mirror.

• Hang the mirror onto the housing by positioning the mounting brackets on the back of the mirror so they rest on top of the brackets on the housing. Start by holding the mirror slightly higher than the housing and slowly lower the mirror until the mirror brackets rest on the housing brackets.
• Ensure the brackets are interlocked and the mirror is secure by making sure the mirror is level and evenly spaced from the wall. Gently try to move the mirror glass. If you can pull any of the four corners away from the housing, then it’s not mounted properly. If the glass moves, it’s likely not fully interlocked and you need to repeat this step to align the mounting brackets.

Care and Maintenance

Séura’s patented mirror glass coatings have been developed to protect the mirror surface and allow easy maintenance.

• The glass surface should be cleaned with any conventional non-ammoniated glass cleaner. Care should be taken to use only a soft lint-free cloth. Apply all cleaners directly to the cloth and not the mirror surface. Never saturate the mirror surface as residual cleaner may seep behind the mirror.
• Stubborn spots can be removed with solvents such as mineral spirits, de-natured alcohol, and acetone. Immediately remove solvent and dirt residues per the prescribed methods above with a compatible glass cleaner or water.

Decorative frames should be cleaned using a clean, soft cloth to wipe dust and dirt off.
