For your safety

DANGER

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH.

• This product must be installed and serviced by appropriately qualified and/or licenced electrical personnel.
• Isolate the electrical supply before doing any work on the product.
• Ensure that the product has been correctly installed and tested for safe operation before reconnecting the electrical supply.
• The Locking Bar on grids must be set to the Closed position to ensure that the mechanism cannot be removed during normal operation.
• This product must be installed downstream of a switch.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury

CAUTION

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD

• Install the device according to instructions in this document.
• Pay attention to the specifications and wiring diagrams related to the installation.
• Do not use this product for any other purpose than specified in this instruction.
• Dropping the device may damage the mech. Check device operates after being dropped or if physical damage is shown.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

NOTICE

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD (LOAD AND OPERATION)

• Operation of units at elevated temperatures or voltages outside of specification (240 V a.c. and 25 °C) may cause the over-temperature protection circuitry to operate. Operating with significant overload may cause the thermal fuse to blow and render the unit inoperable.
• Reduce the size of the connected load or use a different brand of lamp to prevent recurrence.
• Do not operate the product for prolonged periods in extreme conditions.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

NOTICE

MAXIMUM LOAD RATINGS APPLY

Ensure that the number of Low Voltage Lighting Transformers connected to a single Dimmer does not exceed the maximum load rating of the unit.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Using the dimmer

Dimming and Brightening

With the light switched On:

1. Turn the knob clockwise A to brighten the light.
2. Turn the knob counter-clockwise B to dim the light.
   

Adjusting the Minimum Brightness Level

1. Remove skin, then remove the knob from the shaft **A.

   ---

   **

2. Remove the adapter. If the adapter remains on the shaft, rotate anti- clockwise until it stops B. Hold the adapter so the key-way of the adapter aligns with the slot in the body, then pull to remove the adapter.

3. Switch the light On.

4. Rotate the shaft until the desired minimum light level is reached **C.

   ---

   **

5. Hold the adapter so the key-way of the adapter aligns with the slot on the mechanism surround, then slide the adapter onto the shaft D, ensuring that the key of the adapter engages with the slot on the mechanism surround.

6. Push the knob onto the adapter E ensuring that the flat keyway on the knob aligns with the flat keyway on the adapter. Then press the end of the knob until the knob is firmly seated on the adapter.

Advanced Load Handling Facilities
The universal dimmer incorporates patented dimming technology, including advanced, intelligent features to help ensure that the connected load is handled appropriately.

Dimming Mode Selection
The Universal Dimmer (42E350RUD2M-VW) is capable of driving a wide range of load types, depending on the model. Upon power-up, the unit selects the correct dimming method to suit that load (Leading or Trailing Edge Phase Angle Control).

Overload Protection Facilities
The rotary dimmers have a number of mechanisms to reduce the risk of damage in the case of abnormal operating conditions.

Thermal Overload Protection – Two Levels| Thermal Overload Protection Automatically reduces lamp brightness should the dimmer be inadvertently overloaded. Extreme overloads will result in the load turning Off (primary defence against overload). The Thermal Overload Protection resets automatically once overload conditions are corrected.
---|---
Thermal Cut-Out The dimmer contains a non-re settable thermal fuse device designed to blow in case of circuit failure. This is a secondary protection measure intended to operate as a backup in case of persistent or prolonged overload conditions. If the thermal cut-out fuse blows, the unit will be rendered permanently inoperable and must be replaced.

Note: The thermal fuse device is not replaceable by the user.
Any significant overload should be avoided in order to prevent damage to the load, fixed wiring of the installation or other hardware connected to the affected circuit.

Short Circuit Protection| Designed to protect the dimmer under most abnormal operating conditions, short circuit protection helps the dimmer withstand wiring faults or failure of the load. The short circuit protection mechanism resets automatically once the short circuit condition is removed.
