Tools you’ll need
Turn power off at circuit breaker!
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
May result in serious injury or death. Turn off power at circuit breaker or
fuse before installing.
Important note:
Some lights have one wall switch, while others have two or more wall switches
(such as stair lights, which have a switch at both the top and bottom of the
stairs). We’ve included instructions for lights with one wall switch (called a
single pole). If your light has more than one switch (called a 3-way), please
visit www.casetawireless.com/3way for
complete installation instructions and how-to videos.
Remove existing switch from wall
- Remove the wallplate from switch.
- Remove the switch and pull it away from the wall.
- Remove the switch and pull it away from the wall.
-
- If your switch has more than 3 wires attached, see “Installing Caséta Wireless in a 3-way switch application” video at www.casetawireless.com/3way
Remove side sections (if necessary)
Do not remove outside side sections on dimmers at the end of gang.
Each dimmer has inside side sections removed. Dimmer at middle has all side sections removed.
Important note:
Removing side sections reduces the dimmer’s maximum wattage rating. See the
chart below for maximum wattage information.

- Connect the bare copper (or green) “ground” wire from the wallbox to the green wire on the dimmer using a wire connector.
- Connect either of the remaining wires from the wallbox to either of the remaining wires on the dimmer using a second wire connector.
- Connect the remaining wire from the wall to the remaining wire on the dimmer using a third wire connector.

CAUTION
Use only with permanently installed fixtures with dimmable LED, dimmable CFL, halogen, or incandescent,lamps. To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not use to control receptacles, motor-driven appliances, or transformer-supplied appliances.
Codes
Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
Grounding
When no “grounding means” exist in wallbox, the National Electrical Code (NEC®) allows a control to be installed as a replacement if 1) a nonmetallic, noncombustible faceplate is used with nonmetallic attachment screws or 2) the circuit is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). When installing a control according to these methods, cap or remove green wire before screwing control into wallbox.
