! IMPORTANT NOTE ON 3-WAY WIRING:
Some lights have one wall switch, while others are controlled by two or more wall switches (such as stair lights, which have a switch at both the top and bottom of the stairs). If your lights have more than one switch (called a 3-way), we’ve created other instructions for this type of installation.

Visit cyncsupport.gelighting.com for 3-way installation instructions and how- fo videos.
Note: Complete set up in the CYNC App to enable 3-way/ multi-way functionality.

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING:
Step 1

Turn Off The Power!

1. Turn off the power for the swiftch location at the circuit breaker box.
2. Test existing switch by toggling switch on/ofi, ensuring lights do not turn on.
3. Now, follow these setup steps for a single gang switch.

STOP! Before Proceeding to Step 2, Determine the Bulb Type
What type of bulbs do you plan to use? Some installations require the included Bulb Adaptor to maintain Wi-Fi connectivity and to ensure your switch and bulbs work together.
If your switch circuit includes a load of at least 15 Watts:

If your switch circuit does NOT include a load of at least 15 Watts:

Installing the Bulb Adaptor

1. Twist the Bulb Adaptor onto the base of the medium-base (E26) light bulb.
2. Screw the bulb and Adaptor into the fixture.

NOTE: Only one Bulb Adaptor is needed per switch, even if there are multiple light bulbs on the circuit. If installing in a recessed can application, you may need to adjust the recessed can depth to ensure the bulb is flush.
If the Bulb Adaptor does not fit your bulb or fixture, you have other options:

• Replace your lights with incandescent, halogen, or dimmable LED light bulbs that meet the 15 Watt minimum load requirement. See a list of compatible bulbs at gelighting.com/cync
• Install our Fixture Adaptor to the actual fixture in the ceiling.
  For install instructions and where to get a Cync Fixture Adaptor (available separately), confact Customer Support at 1-844-302-2943
