- Fine Tuning : To achieve the lowest light level, turn the Tuning dial Upwards/ Downwards until desired level is reached. (Note: DO NOT overturn. The Dial will stop turning at lowest/ highest outputs).
- To verify the setting, turn the dimmer off then back on. Repeat step 2 if all bulbs do not turn on.
