• Must be installed and used in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
• If a bare copper or green ground connection is not available in the wallbox, contact a licensed electrician for installation.
• Use only #14 or #12 copper wire rated for at least 75º C with these devices. DO NOT USE WITH ALUMINUM WIRE.
NOTES:
•.The Z-Wave Wireless Switch is wired directly to the light fixture.
• For Multi-location applications (3-Way or 4-Way) the Z-Wave Wireless Accessory Switch (RF9617) or a regular 3-way toggle switch could be used along
with one Z-Wave Master Switch
• The Z-Wave Wireless Accessory Switch communicates via RF signals to control the light from more than one location.
• For multi-location control use Z-Wave Wireless switch directly wired to the light along with Z-Wave Wireless Accessory Switch (RF9617).
The Z-Wave Accessory does not require direct connection to the light (use Association function).

Z-WAVE DEVICE NETWORK INSTRUCTIONS:
This product may be added to a new or existing Z-Wave network. An Eaton Wiring Devices Z-Wave device has a blue LED,
which will blink when the device is not included in a Z-Wave network. The LED stops blinking when the device is in a network.
This product works with other Z-Wave Plus products from different vendors and product categories as part of the same network.
This product is a listening node and it will act as a repeater in the Z-Wave network. It will perform the repeater function with
Z-Wave products from Eaton and from other Z-Wave vendors.
This secure Z-Wave Plus device will only associate with other secure devices based on the Z-Wave controller it's being used with.
Please refer to instructions provided with the controller for more details.
Adding Z-Wave Wireless switch to a Z-Wave Network:
1. To include this device in a Z-Wave network, select the command on your Z Wave controller for inclusion (Install,
Add Device, Add Node, Include Device, etc.). Then press the device ON/OFF switch one time to include it in the network.
2. Based on the controller, the controller may ask you to scan the QR code or manually enter 5 digit code under the QR code to install the device as a
secured device. You may find this QR code on the device or included in device packaging (Figure 1).
3. After the Device is added to the network, the blue indicator LED will stop blinking. This indicates the device is
installed in the Z-Wave network.
Removing Z-Wave Wireless switch from a Z-Wave Network:
1. To exclude this device from a Z-Wave network, select the setting on your Z-Wave controller for exclusion
(Uninstall, Remove Device, Remove Node, Exclude Device, etc.).
2. Once your controller is in exclusion mode, press the device ON/OFF switch one time to exclude it from the
network. The LED will start blinking.
For a Quick start Guide on how to install this device with Eaton's Home Automation Hub & other compatible
Z-Wave Certified Controllers, please scan the QR code (Figure 2).
