TREATLIFE Smart Ceiling Fan Control and Light Dimmer Switch User Manual

ATTENTION

  • Only replace the existing switch that independently adjust the fan speed and the light brightness.
  • Do not use to control fans that have integrated fan speed controls (i.e. fans that have a remote control or bluetooth/WiFi enabled), unless the integrated control is removed from the ceiling fan.
  • The smart switch is designed for single-pole (one location) wiring (not compatible with 3-way/multi-way switch wiring).
  • Do not use to control exhaust fans (e.g. bathroom or kitchen exhaust fans).
  • This control is to be used with ceiling fans that are rated 120W, total load 1.5 amperes maximum.
  • Supported Bulb Types: Dimmable LED/CFL – 150W Max; Incandescent – 300W Max. Not compatible with non-dimmable light bulbs.
  • Neutral wire is required to install the smart switch. If your house was built or remodeled before mid-80’s, you may not have a neutral. Please try another location or call an electrician for help.
  • Install your Treatlife switch where there is a strong Wi-Fi signal.
  • Keep your mobile device close to the Treatlife smart switch until setup is complete

The Tools You’ll Need

  • Screwdriver
  • Pliers
  • Electrical Tester

Note: Use the ceiling fan’s pull chain or wall control to set its speed to the highest setting before remove the previous ceiling fan control.

1 Turn Off Power

Locate your circuit breaker panel and turn off the power to each switch you are replacing

Caution:

Risk of shock.
Make sure the power to every switch you are replacing has been turned off before installation. Please call a professional electrician if you are not familiar with electrical work

2 Verify That Power Is Off

Press each light switch at the location you’re doing the installation to confirm power is off. If a light turns on, return the panel to turn off the correct circuit. We recommend you to remove the faceplate from
the old switch and use electrical tester to test all wiresconnected to the switch to ensure there is no voltage i the circuit. You may need to turn off more than one circuit breaker.

3 Pull Out the Existing Switch

Unscrew the old switch and pull it out of the wall. Do not remove any wires.

4 Identify Your Existing Switch

A neutral is required to install the smart light switch. Make sure there are NEUTRAL wires (most likely a bundle of one or more white wires ) in the wall. Unless you are replacing an existing smart switch, it’s probably not
connected to your old switch
diagram

Note: If there is no neutral, please try another location or call an electrician for help.

5 Test NEUTRAL and GROUND Wires

Make sure there is no power on the neutral wires fromneighboring circuit. If necessary, shut off additional circuits until no voltage is found.
Label the NEUTRAL and GROUND wire in the wall with the stickers in the package
GROUND wires are usually BARE COPPER or GREEN.

6 Identify Line Wire

  • Label the LINE wire (usually BLACK, attached with a black screw, and may be labeled “common”.) in the wall with the “Line” sticker.

7 Identify Light / Fan Load Wire

  • Label the Load (Light) wire in the wall with the“Light Load” sticker.
  • Label the Load (Fan) wire in the wall with the “Fan Load” sticker.

8 Take Pictures of the Wiring

Take one or two pictures of the old switch and where each wire is connected, in case you need guidance to repeat the installation.
Note: Make sure all of the text on the labels in the pictures is clearly displayed.
