Step 2:
Remove cover plate by first removing the screw caps and then unscrewing the screws. Save screws.
Step 3:
If installing into wall or ceiling of new construction, set adjustable flange to proper depth according to the
thickness of the drywall you plan to use. Measure height and depth of installation and use two of the four
screws or similar metal/wood screws to anchor the flange to the stud. A standard hanger bar can also be
utilized for more stability.
After installing the unit, secure interior plastic dust cover to metal unit box by lining the dust cover up with
the screw holes on the metal box and applying gentle even pressure until it snaps into place. If cover does
not fit properly, please tape in place for extra securing. This dust cover protects important electronic
components within the unit from dust and debris, leave dust cover in place until final wiring connections
are made and then discard. Final step is to install front painted cover plate with provided screws and plastic
screw covers.
If RETROFITTING installation into EXISITING drywall, set adjustable flanges to be even with top of metal
box. Cut hole in ceiling or wall using provided plastic template and secure metal housing in using your
desired drywall screws, or the ones provided with unit.
If installing into drop ceiling, use a hanger bar designed to secure fixtures of similar weight. (Check
specification sheet for weight.) Adjust flanges to proper depth of ceiling tile. Flange will secure above
ceiling tile. This will provide additional support.
Step 4:
With no power to unit (AC circuit breaker switched off ), feed AC wire through knockout (KO) on metal
housing. Connect building wires to + RED and - BLACK 12Vdc leads on emergency light in accordance with
NEC and/or local regulations.
CAUTION
Be sure to not cross the wires during connection or serious damage to the emergency light unit
can occur.
Step 5:
Connect building wires to central battery unit. Please refer to the voltage drop information
furnished with the central battery unit (sold separately) to ensure proper operation of the
emergency light unit.
