FCC / IC

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC and Industry Canada license exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subjected to the following two conditions:
FCC NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

CAUTION – PLEASE READ!
This device (MS13Z) is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. If you are unsure or uncomfortable about performing this installation consult a qualified electrician

CONTROLLING APPLIANCES
Please exercise EXTREME CAUTION when using Z-Wave devices to control appliances. Reason being is because the appliance you want to control may be in a separate room and if unintentional behavior occurs (such as a device turning on or off – either intentionally via schedules, or unintentionally via network error) this event may lead to a hazardous condition. For these reasons, please note the following suggestions:

1. Do not include Z-Wave devices in Groups or Scenes if they control appliances.
2. Do not use Z-Wave devices to control electric heaters or any other appliances which may present a hazardous condition due to unattended, unintentional, or automatic power control

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Important note: To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, no change to the antenna or the device is permitted. Any change to the antenna or the device could result in the device exceeding the RF exposure requirements and void user’s authority to operate the device.

WARNING – SHOCK HAZARD
TURN OFF THE POWER to the circuit for the switch and lighting fixture at the service panel (circuit breaker) prior to installation.
ALL WIRING CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE POWER OFF to avoid personal injury and/or damage to the switch.

OTHER WARNINGS
Risk of Fire
Risk of Electrical Shock
Risk of Burns

MEDICAL EQUIPMENT
Please DO NOT use this switch to control Medical or Life Support equipment. Z-Wave devices should never be used to control the On/Off status of Medical and/or Life Support equipment.

Z-WAVE INTEROPERABILITY

This product can be included and operated in any Z-Wave network with other Z-Wave certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications.
All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase the reliability of the network.
This Device supports Lifeline (association group 1) supporting 1 node for lifeline communication.
Group 1 must be assigned the Node ID of the primary controller where unsolicited notifications will be sent. The Z-Wave controller should set this association automatically after inclusion.
Lifeline association only supports the “Device Reset Locally” function. Refer to the instructions of your controller for any available details on how this can be set.

Installation in multiple gang boxes

Please break off one or both sides of the scored tabs on the front yoke if you install it in multiple gang Boxes. This does not affect the electrical rating of the smart switch.

Triple Gang Boxes

IMPORTANT! Please Read.
For 3-Way setups, please only use an On/Off, 3-Way slave switch (non-dimming).

Please Note.
Line and load must be in the same box for this schematic to work.
if yours is not, please reach out for a custom schematic.

(3-WAY SWITCH WIRING)
Note: The Traveler terminal is only used for 3-way wiring .

Wiring Instructions – A Few Quick Reminders

A quick note before we give out the wiring schematics. Please do not try installing this device if you are unsure of how electrical circuits operate within your home. As exciting as it is to have a smart switch installed, it can be dangerous and even life-threatening if you do not install this correctly. Please consult a qualified electrician if necessary. With that said, here are a few other warnings we’d like to point out for your safety:

INSTALLATION

1. Connect the Smart Switch in accordance with the wiring diagram presented on( Single switch ).

2. If one more external switch is needed, like a lamp between two floors can be controlled by either switch, connect wires like
   ( 3-Way switch option 1/2 ).

3. Place the device in a switch box.

4. Fix the shell with screws.( Please use our screws. )

5. Turn on the power supply to keep the necessary safety.

IMPORTANT!

The fixture controlled by the Z-Wave In-wall Smart Switch must not exceed 150W LED, 500W incandescent.
The switch is designed only for use with permanently installed fixtures.

Pre-installation preparation

1. Please prepare a flat head screwdriver, a wire stripper, and a voltmeter. Just in case you might need them.
2. Before installation makes sure the voltage supply is disconnected. And carefully remove the switch from the switch box.
