- The design is joist-friendly and does not require a traditional recessed can.
- The lights are suitable for ceiling spaces up to 2 inches thick.
5.2 Installation Steps
- Prepare the Ceiling: Cut a hole in the ceiling at the desired location. Refer to the product dimensions for the appropriate hole size (typically 4.25 inches for a 4-inch light). Ensure there are no obstructions like wires or pipes.
- Insert Junction Box: Open the junction box cover. Connect the household electrical wires to the wires inside the junction box (black to black, white to white, ground to ground) using appropriate wire connectors. Secure the junction box cover. Insert the junction box through the ceiling hole.
- Connect Wires: Connect the male and female connectors from the light fixture and the junction box. Ensure a secure connection.
- Attach and Push: Push the spring clips on the side of the light fixture upwards. Insert the light fixture into the ceiling hole. The spring clips will automatically secure the light against the ceiling, providing a flush mount.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Color Temperature (CCT) Selection
Your Sunco LED Recessed Ceiling Lights feature a selectable color temperature switch located on the side of the junction box. This switch allows you to choose from five different color temperatures:
- 2700K: Warm White
- 3000K: Soft White
- 4000K: Cool White
- 5000K: Daylight
- 6000K: Bright White
To change the CCT, ensure the power is off. Open the junction box and slide the switch to your desired color temperature setting. Close the junction box and restore power. You can experiment with different settings to find the ideal ambiance for your room.
6.2 Dimming Functionality
These lights are dimmable from 100% to 10% output, allowing you to adjust the brightness to suit your needs. For optimal performance, use with compatible LED dimmer switches. Refer to the dimmer switch manufacturer's instructions for installation and operation.
7. Maintenance
LED lights require minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity and optimal performance:
- Cleaning: Ensure power is off before cleaning. Use a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface of the light fixture. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or lens.
