Mounting Options

The Pico remote offers versatile mounting options to suit your needs:

• Handheld Use: The remote is lightweight and compact, ideal for use as a portable control.
• Tabletop Pedestal: Place the remote in a coordinating tabletop pedestal (sold separately) for a stable and accessible control point.
• Wall Mounting: The remote can be mounted directly to almost any surface without new holes or wires using a wall plate bracket (sold separately). This allows you to create a new control location or convert a single-pole switch to a 3-way switch without complex wiring.

Troubleshooting

If your Pico remote is not functioning as expected, consider the following:

• Check Pairing: Ensure the remote is correctly paired with your Caseta smart dimmer. Repeat the pairing steps if necessary.
• Battery Check: Although the battery has a long life, ensure it is properly seated. If issues persist after many years of use, consider replacing the battery if possible (refer to product documentation for battery replacement instructions).
• Range: Verify that the remote is within the operational range of the paired Caseta dimmer. Obstructions can sometimes interfere with the wireless signal.
• Reset: For persistent issues, a factory reset of the Pico remote and re-pairing might resolve the problem. Consult the full Lutron Caseta system manual for detailed reset procedures.
