WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
•To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician.
•To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, fluorescent lighting, a motor- or a transformer-
operated appliance.
Use with incandescent or 120V halogen fixtures only.
Acenti™ dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Acenti™ remotes for multi-location dimming.
Use only one (1) dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 coordinating remotes without LEDs or up to 4 matching remotes with LEDs. The remote(s) will turn
the light on at the brightness level selected at the dimmer.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
Dimmer may not operate with dioded lamps (Sylvania Designer 16™ or Philips PAR-16™).
•Total minimum load must exceed 40W.
Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.
Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2".
Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.
Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.
Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.

Important Notice for Installer
To achieve proper aesthetic installation of the Acenti
products, the wall surface surrounding the wall box opening
must be fairly flat and free of irregularities. The wall box must
be level and recessed or flush to the wall surface. The Acenti
installation system allows for adjustments that will correct
minor flaws that may be present in the installation area.
This device must be installed with the Acenti™ Alignment
Plate. The Alignment Plate is packaged with the Acenti™
Wallplate, which is sold separately from this device.
The Alignment Plate will function properly only if it is
mounted to a flat wall surface as described above.
Leviton recommends to temporarily position the Alignment
Plate prior to wiring the device. If the wall box wires
extend at least 6 inches out of the wall box, it is also
possible to install the Alignment Plate after the device has
been wired (refer to Wallplate instruction sheet).
The Alignment Plate must be installed with the tab
towards the bottom.
Leviton recommends the following 3 methods to
temporarily hold the Alignment Plate – use of device
mounting screw, use of wall box wires, or use of electrical
tape (refer to the following figures):
