STOP!
Wire and screw position, as well as color codes are for illustration only. You should not follow the colors and positioning in the illustration blindly.
Always identify all wires prior to installing Zooz switches and make sure you can match the diagrams to your set-up exactly. Don’t experiment or attempt a “trial-and-error” installation for your own safety. Don’t disconnect any wires before documenting your set-up in each box with detailed images!
NOTE!
If you are not comfortable identifying the wiring and completing the installation, please consult a licensed electrician.
Make sure you have identified all wiring correctly before connecting the switch. If your wiring doesn’t match any of the below diagrams, contact our support: ask@getzooz.com
ON/OFF SWITCHES ONLY
Do not connect Zooz Z-Wave® switches to an existing 3-way dimmer, illuminated switch, or an electronic add-on switch. Zooz switches can only be wired with mechanical on/off or momentary switches in a 3-way or 4-way setting! To simplify the diagrams, we did not include connections for the ground wire. Remember that all Zooz switches need to be wired according to the electrical code, with ground wire connected to the ground terminal.
POWER OFF!
Cut power to the circuit before handling the wiring.
Diagrams and instructions in this manual are for the ZEN35 model ONLY! Always follow the correct diagram for your own safety and to avoid equipment damage. Other Zooz switches may wire differently!
ZEN35 4-WAY INSTALLATION WIRING DIAGRAM (LINE AND LOAD MUST BE IN THE SAME BOX)
CHECK 3-WAY / 4-WAY TYPE!
Your 3-way and 4-way switches may have a different terminal layout so identify the in and out terminals on the 4-way switch and the common terminal on the 3-way switch before the installation
LOOKING FOR ADVANCED SETTINGS? HERE THEY ARE!
Here is a selection of settings available to customize your switch:
- LED Indicator behavior, color, brightness:
- Smart Bulb Mode (disable the relay)
- On/off status for the switch aer power failure
- Dimming ramp rate for a smooth fade-out effect

USE IT WITH SMART BULBS!
Want to control your smart bulb from a wall switch without cutting power to it every time you turn the light off from the switch? We’ll tell you how, just as
EACH BOX NEEDS TO BE WIRED ACCORDING TO THE 4-WAY DIAGRAM.
Don’t follow the wire colors blindly – make sure you understand the role of each wire before moving forward with the installation. The colors used in this diagram are just an example of the many scenarios you’ll come across in multi-point control set-ups.
Follow this diagram ONLY if you confirmed you have direct connection to power and light in the same box. If they’re in separate boxes, ask us about using the ZEN35 switch with ZAC99 momentary switches in 4-way and 5-way installations.
