This foot switch is designed for custom wiring into a lighting fixture or small appliance. Please follow these instructions carefully to ensure safe and correct installation.

4.1 Safety Precautions

• ALWAYS disconnect power to the fixture or appliance you are wiring before beginning installation. Turn off the circuit breaker or unplug the device.
• If you are unsure about electrical wiring, consult a qualified electrician.
• Ensure the total wattage of the connected device does not exceed the switch's maximum load capacity (100W).
• Do not use in wet or damp locations.

4.2 Wiring Instructions

1. Prepare the Fixture: Ensure the lighting fixture or appliance you intend to connect has appropriate wiring terminals or a place to connect the stripped wires. If replacing an existing switch, carefully remove the old switch.
2. Identify Wires: The RTNLIT foot switch cable has two stripped wire ends. These are typically for connecting to the live and neutral wires of your fixture.
3. Connect Wires:
   • Carefully connect one stripped wire end from the foot switch cable to the live (hot) wire of your fixture.
   • Connect the other stripped wire end from the foot switch cable to the neutral wire of your fixture.
   • Ensure all connections are secure, either by twisting wires together and capping with wire nuts, or by securing them under screw terminals, depending on your fixture's design.
4. Insulate Connections: Properly insulate all exposed wire connections with electrical tape or wire nuts to prevent short circuits.
5. Secure Wiring: Ensure the wiring is neatly arranged and not pinched or stressed.
6. Test Connection: Once wiring is complete and secure, plug the foot switch's power plug into a standard wall outlet.
