Important Notes

  •  IC fixtures must be used for installations containing insulating materials and must be mounted away from heat-producing elements (e.g., HVAC ducts, hot water pipes, radiant heat floors, ovens). Non-IC fixtures cannot be used in these types of applications.
  • Non-IC fixtures are intended for free-air applications. Do not confine Non-IC fixtures with insulation or building materials.
  •  Install and wire in accordance with national and local electrical codes, by a qualified professional familiar with the construction and operation of the luminaire electrical systems and the hazards involved.
  •  IC fixtures are rated for direct application of spray foam with less than R-21 insulative value or 3 in (76.2 mm) of closed-cell spray foam. 95 °F (35 °C) maximum operating temperature.
  •  The mud ring shipped with timeless fixtures must be installed to ensure a desirable ceiling aesthetic and to provide structural support.
  •  Hanger bars can be installed on either side of the fixture.
  •  Housings, modules, and trims are shipped in separate packages. Install modules and trims per housing labels (see Step 6a).
  •  Installation details with materials other than drywall or plaster, please see Application Note #564 at www.lutron.com.
  •  Sloped ceiling installation: Install housing with a junction box at bottom of the slope. Adjustable fixtures accommodate up to 40° slope (10/12 roof pitch).

Troubleshooting

Symptoms Solution(s)

The light is flickering,
flashing, dropping out, or does not turn on.| •Check all fixture wires and connections to ensure that they are properly connected.
•Verify that controls and controllers (drivers) are connected properly.
•Verify that a compatible control is being used to control the controller (driver). For a list of compatible controls and control ratings, visit www.lutron.com/finire
•Ensure that 120/277 V—- power is present and properly connected to the LED controller (driver). Note: Fl model (2-wire) is 120 V— only.
•Adjust low-end trim on the control.
•Verify that ambient temperature is within the specified range.
•Non-IC fixtures are intended for free-air applications. Do not confine Non-IC fixtures with insulation or building materials.
LED exhibits a flash or steppy dimming on first use.| •Drivers will “learn” the LED load on the first startup. This is a one-time event for a particular controller (driver)/LED combination. Running the load at full output for 20 seconds will complete “learning.”
LED does not dim.| •Verify that the controller (driver) wiring is wired properly.
The Trim does not fit.| •Verify that an adjustable trim is being used with an adjustable housing. If using a downlight trim with an Adjustable fixture, verify that the tilt is 20° or less.
•Trimless fixtures: Ensure that the inside of mud ring is free of excess plaster.
•Trimmed fixtures: Ensure ceiling material thickness matches trim specification. Thick ceiling trim brackets are required for ceiling material greater than 0.625 in (16 mm).
