What is the maximum current rating?
This switch is rated at 10A.
Can I install this in a shallow wall box?
This switch requires a 25mm deep wall box for proper installation; it will not fit in shallower boxes.
Troubleshooting
Faceplate will not clip on securely
Ensure the internal base unit is mounted flush and the screws are not protruding past the mounting frame.
Switch feels loose or wobbly
Check that the fixing screws connecting the module to the wall box are tightened evenly.
Light flickering or not operating
Verify all wire connections are secure and that the switch is not exceeding the 10A current limit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires standard electrical safety procedures; ensure the mains supply is turned off before starting. The unit is designed for use in a 25mm deep wall box. When installing, ensure the base unit is level before snapping the screwless front plate into position. For daily care, simply wipe the faceplate with a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can dull or damage the mocha brown finish of the surface.
