5. Setup and Installation
This fixture is designed for wall-mount installation and requires hardwiring. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified electrician. If you are performing a DIY installation, ensure you follow all local electrical codes and safety guidelines.
Installation Steps:
- Turn Off Power: Before starting, ensure the power to the junction box is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Prepare Wiring: Pull the electrical wires from the junction box.
- Attach Mounting Plate: Secure the mounting plate to the junction box using the provided screws. Ensure the plate is level and firmly attached.
- Connect Wires:
- Connect the black wire from the fixture to the black (hot) wire from the junction box using a wire nut.
- Connect the white wire from the fixture to the white (neutral) wire from the junction box using a wire nut.
- Connect the green or bare copper (ground) wire from the fixture to the green or bare copper (ground) wire from the junction box using a wire nut.
Ensure all wire connections are secure and insulated.
- Mount Fixture: Carefully tuck the wires into the junction box. Align the fixture with the mounting plate and secure it with the provided screws.

6. Operating Instructions
The Maxxima LED Outdoor Wall Light is equipped with a built-in Dusk to Dawn (photocell) sensor for automatic operation.
- Automatic Operation: The light will automatically turn on when it detects low light conditions (dusk) and turn off when it detects sufficient ambient light (dawn).
- Manual Control (Optional): If you wish to override the dusk to dawn sensor and control the light with a standard wall switch, place the included sensor cap over the photocell located on the top of the fixture. This will prevent the sensor from detecting light, allowing the fixture to be controlled by the external switch.
