WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician.
• To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, fluorescent lighting, a motor- or a transformer-operated appliance.
• Use with incandescent or 120V halogen fixtures only.
•
Vizia™ RF dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Vizia™ or Vizia™ RF remotes for multi-location dimming.
• Use only one (1) Vizia™ RF dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 Vizia™ coordinating remotes without LEDs or Vizia™ RF controllers. The remote(s) will turn the light on at the
brightness level selected at the dimmer.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• Dimmer may not operate with dioded lamps (Sylvania Designer 16™ or Philips PAR-16™).
• Total minimum load must exceed 40W.
• Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.
• Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2”.
• Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.
• Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.
• Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.
IMPORTANT: For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw
terminals from the old switch being removed will usually be a
different color (Black) or labeled Common. Tag that wire with
electrical tape and identify as the common (Line or Load) in both the
dimmer wall box and remote wall box.

Cutters Ruler
Changing the color of your Dimmer:
Your Dimmer may include three color options. The Dimmer ships
with the White frame attached. To change color of frame, proceed
as follows:
Installing Dimmer by itself or with other devices:
If installing Dimmer in a single device application, proceed with the
INSTALLING YOUR DIMMER
section. If installing Dimmer in a
multi-device application, proceed as follows:
MULTI-DEVICE APPLICATION:
In multi-dimmer installations, the reduction of the dimmer’s capacity
is required. Refer to the chart for maximum load per dimmer.

INTRODUCTION
Leviton’s Vizia
TM
RF components are designed to communicate
with each other via Radio Frequency (RF) to provide remote
control of your lighting. Using RF technology allows Leviton
to provide the greatest signal integrity possible. Each module
in Leviton’s Vizia
TM
RF component line is a Z-Wave
TM
enabled
device. In a Z-Wave
TM
network, each device is designed to act
as a router. These routers will re-transmit the RF signal from
one device to another until the intended device is reached. This
ensures that the signal is received by its intended device by
routing the signal around obstacles and radio dead spots. The
Scene Capable Plug-in Lamp Dimming Module is compatible with
any Z-Wave™ enabled network, regardless of the manufacturer
and can also be used with other devices displaying the Z-Wave™
logo.
CAUTION:
Remember to exercise good common sense when using the
Timer features of your remote, especially when scheduling
unattended devices. There can be some unexpected
consequences if not used with care. For example, an empty
coffee pot can be remotely turned on. If that should happen, your
coffee pot could be damaged from overheating. If an electric
heater is turned on by remote control while clothing is draped
over it, a fire could result. DO NOT USE the remote for the control
of high power heating appliances such as portable heaters. This
device will not control lighting that is used with electronic low-
voltage and high frequency power supply transformers, nor high
pressure discharge lamps (HID lighting). This includes mercury-
vapor, sodium vapor and metal halide lamps.
• Soft fade ON/OFF
• Scene capable
• ON/OFF LED and Brightness level LED
• Two way communication
• RF reliability
• Ease of installation – No new wiring
• Compatible with other Z-Wave™ enabled devices
• No Neutral wire required
FEATURES

•
For Single-Pole Application, go to Step 4a.
• For 3-Way Coordinating Remote (no LEDs) Application, go
to Step 4b.
Side Wire Connection
Side wire terminals accept
#14 AWG solid copper wire only.
