Safety Information
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.

Installation Guide
Tools Required:
- Screwdrivers (Phillips and Flathead)
- Wire Strippers
- Voltage Tester
- Electrical Tape (optional)
Installation Steps:
- Turn Off Power: Locate the circuit breaker or fuse that controls the power to the switch location and turn it OFF. Verify power is off using a voltage tester.
- Remove Old Switch (if applicable): Carefully remove the existing wall plate and switch from the electrical box. Disconnect the wires, noting their connections.
- Prepare Wires: Strip approximately 1/2 inch (12-15 mm) of insulation from the ends of the electrical wires if necessary.
- Connect Wires: The Legrand Valena 774405 switch uses screw terminals for connection. Connect the wires as follows:
- Connect the Live (Phase) wire to the terminal marked 'L' or 'COM'.
- Connect the Switched Live wires (one for each switch output) to the terminals marked '1' and '2' or 'L1' and 'L2'.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
- Mount the Switch: Gently fold the wires into the electrical box. Secure the switch mechanism to the electrical box using the provided screws or claws. The mechanism is supplied with a metal stand for secure mounting.
- Attach Decorative Plate: Once the switch is securely mounted, attach the decorative wall plate (sold separately) over the switch mechanism.
- Restore Power: Turn the power back ON at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Test Functionality: Test both switches to ensure they operate correctly.

Operating Instructions
The Legrand Valena 774405 is a double light switch, meaning it controls two separate lighting circuits from a single unit. Each button operates independently.
- Switching ON/OFF: Press the upper part of a switch button to turn the connected light circuit ON. Press the lower part of the same switch button to turn the connected light circuit OFF.
- Independent Control: Each of the two buttons controls its own circuit, allowing for independent operation of two different lights or groups of lights.
- Remote Control Capability: This mechanism supports remote control functionality. Refer to your specific remote control device's manual for pairing and operation instructions with Legrand Valena mechanisms.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the switch and decorative plate, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the switch for any signs of damage, loose connections, or discoloration. If any issues are observed, turn off power and consult a qualified electrician.
- No User Serviceable Parts: The internal components of the switch are not user-serviceable. Do not attempt to disassemble the switch.
