The Lutron Diva LED+ dimmer switch is designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. No specific routine maintenance is required. For cleaning, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish.
Troubleshooting
If you experience issues such as flickering, lights dropping out, or popping on, the trim level of your dimmer may need adjustment. The Diva LED+ dimmer features a trim wheel or lever (located behind the wallplate) that allows you to manually optimize the dimming performance for your specific bulbs.
