Can I use this dimmer with non-dimmable bulbs?

No, this dimmer is specifically designed for dimmable bulbs. Using non-dimmable bulbs will result in flickering, buzzing, or failure to dim.

How do I set up 2-way switching?

You will need to connect this intelligent dimmer to a standard 2-way switch. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with the Enkin module for correct installation.

What does 'soft-start technology' do?

Soft-start technology gradually brings the lights to the set level over 1-2 seconds, which helps to prolong the lifespan of your lightbulbs.

How do I switch between leading edge and trailing edge dimming?

You can switch between modes using the simple push button located on the Enkin PDM150 module integrated into the switch.

What safety features are included?

The dimmer includes short circuit protection, overload protection, and a self-recovering thermal fuse for enhanced safety and reliability.

How should I clean the polished chrome finish?

Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the finish.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer not working or flickering

Ensure you are using dimmable LED or Halogen/Incandescent bulbs. Check that the total bulb wattage does not exceed the 150W (LED) or 300W (Halogen/Incandescent) limit. Try switching the dimmer mode (leading/trailing edge) using the module's button.

Switch does not turn lights on/off

Verify wiring connections are secure and correct for a standard 2-way switch setup. Ensure the circuit breaker for the lighting is engaged.

Soft-start feature is too slow or too fast

The soft-start speed is fixed by the Enkin PDM150 module and cannot be adjusted.

Overheating or switch feels hot

Check the total wattage of the connected bulbs to ensure it is within the specified limits. Verify that the unit is properly installed with adequate ventilation and is not covered by curtains or other materials.
