Key Features:
- Dimmable functionality for adjustable light intensity.

2. Setup and Installation
Before beginning installation, ensure all power to the installation area is turned off at the circuit breaker. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or in accordance with local electrical codes.
2.1 Pre-Installation Checklist
- Verify that the power is OFF at the main circuit breaker.
- Ensure you have all necessary tools: screwdriver, wire strippers, measuring tape, utility knife, safety glasses.
- Confirm the ceiling material is suitable for recessed lighting installation.
- Acquire a BR30 75W halogen bulb (not included).
2.2 Installation Steps
- Prepare the Opening: Using a measuring tape, mark the desired location for the fixture. The required hole diameter is 11.4 cm (4 ½ inches). Carefully cut the opening in the ceiling. Ensure there is a minimum ceiling clearance of 13.3 cm (5 ¼ inches) above the ceiling for the fixture housing.
- Connect Wiring: Open the junction box cover on the fixture. Connect the house wiring to the fixture's wiring using appropriate wire connectors (typically black to black, white to white, and ground to ground). Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated. Close the junction box cover.
- Insert Fixture: Gently push the fixture into the prepared ceiling opening. The spring clips on the sides of the fixture will secure it firmly against the ceiling.
- Install Bulb: Insert a BR30 75W halogen bulb into the socket.
- Test: Restore power at the circuit breaker and test the light fixture.
3. Operation
Once installed, the BAZZ 400R30W recessed lighting kit operates like any standard light fixture. It is controlled by the wall switch connected to its circuit.
Dimmable Feature: This fixture is dimmable. If connected to a compatible dimmer switch (sold separately), you can adjust the light output to your desired brightness level. Ensure the dimmer switch is rated for the wattage of the installed bulb.
Control Method: While the product specifications mention 'App' as a control method, this typically refers to the capability when integrated with smart home systems or smart bulbs. The fixture itself is controlled via a standard wall switch or compatible dimmer.
4. Maintenance
