If installing into OPEN wall or ceiling in NEW construction, set adjustable flange to proper depth according to the
thickness of the drywall you plan to use. Measure height and depth of installation and use two of the four screws - to
anchor the flange to the stud. A standard hanger bar can also be utilized for more stability.
After installing the unit, secure interior plastic dust cover to metal unit box by lining the dust cover up with the screw
holes on the metal box and applying gentle even pressure until it snaps into place. If cover does not fit properly,
please tape in place for extra securing. This dust cover protects important electronic components within the unit from
dust and debris, leave dust cover in place until final wiring connections are made and then discard. Final step is to
install front painted cover plate with provided screws and plastic screw covers.
If RETROFITTING installation into EXISITING drywall, set adjustable flanges to be even with top of metal box. Cut
hole in ceiling or wall using provided plastic template and secure metal housing in using your desired drywall screws,
or the ones provided with unit.
If installing into drop ceiling, use a hanger bar designed to secure fixtures of similar weight. (Check specification
sheet for weight.) Adjust flanges to proper depth of ceiling tile. Flange will secure above ceiling tile. This will provide
additional support.
