Setup & Installation

1. Prepare the Installation Area:

   Turn off power at the circuit breaker before beginning installation. Ensure the ceiling area is clear of obstructions and suitable for recessed lighting.

2. Cut the Ceiling Opening:

   Using a hole saw, cut a 2-inch diameter hole in the ceiling drywall at the desired location. Ensure the hole is clean and smooth.

4. Select Color Temperature (CCT):

   Before closing the junction box and installing it into the ceiling, use the CCT selector switch located on the side of the junction box to choose your desired color temperature (2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K).

5. Place Junction Box:

   Once wiring is complete and CCT is selected, close the junction box and place it inside the ceiling cavity, ensuring it rests securely on a ceiling beam or is otherwise supported.

6. Install the Downlight:

   Push the spring clips on the downlight upwards and insert the fixture into the ceiling opening. Release the clips to secure the downlight flush against the ceiling. The foam gasket will ensure an air-tight seal.
