• 1-Way Light Switch: Used to control a single light from one position.
• 2-Way Light Switch: Used to control a single light from two different positions (e.g., at the top and bottom of a staircase). Note: 2-Way BSEED switches are designed to work only with other 2-Way BSEED switches. They are not compatible with other brands.
• 3-Way Light Switch: Used to control a single light from three different positions. Note: A 1-Gang 3-Way switch is typically used in conjunction with a 1-Gang 2-Way switch.

2.3. Final Assembly

4. After wiring, secure the switch to the wall mounting box using screws.
5. Carefully push the glass frame onto the device. Ensure the notch on the metal plate aligns with the notch on the glass frame for a successful fit.
6. Once the installation is complete, restore power at the circuit breaker.

Warning: Keep the power OFF until the entire installation process is finished. Failure to do so may cause the switch to malfunction or result in electric shock.

2.4. Wall Mounting Box Requirements

Ensure your wall mounting box meets the following dimensions for proper installation:

• Width Dimension: ≥60mm
• Depth Dimension: ≥35mm

3. Operating Instructions

The BSEED Rotary Knob Dimmer Switch allows for precise control over your lighting's brightness.

• Turn ON/OFF: Press the rotary knob to turn the light ON or OFF.

4. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your dimmer switch, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface of the switch. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check the switch for any signs of damage or loose connections. If any issues are found, disconnect power and address them promptly.
• No User-Serviceable Parts: The dimmer switch contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open or repair the unit yourself.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your dimmer switch, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Switch Not Functioning After Installation: Ensure that the power was kept off throughout the entire installation process. If power was restored prematurely, the switch might fail. Recheck all wiring connections according to the diagrams.
• Dimmer Not Responding: Verify that the power supply is active. Check if the bulb is compatible with dimmer switches and is correctly installed.
• Incompatible Voltage: This dimmer switch is designed for 220-240V systems. It will NOT work with 12V systems. Using it with an incorrect voltage can damage the switch and connected lights.
• 2-Way Switch Compatibility: Remember that BSEED 2-Way switches are only compatible with other BSEED 2-Way switches. Mixing brands for 2-way control will not work.

5.1. User Tips

• Voltage Check: Always confirm your home's electrical voltage matches the switch's requirements (220-240V) before purchase and installation. This switch is not suitable for 12V applications.
• Bulb Compatibility: For best performance and to avoid flickering, use dimmable LED bulbs or incandescent bulbs within the specified load limits.
• Gentle Operation: The rotary knob is designed for smooth operation. Avoid excessive force when turning or pressing.
