Important Notes:
Please read before installing.
1. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
2. When no "grounding means" exist within the wallbox, then the NEC
allows a Dimmer without a grounding connection to be installed as a replacement, as long as
a plastic, noncombustible wallplate is used. For this type of installation, twist a wire connector
onto the green ground wire or remove the green ground wire on the Dimmer and use an ap-
pro pri ate wallplate such as Claro or Satin Colors series wallplates by Lutron
® ®
3. Do not paint the Dimmers or the Companion Dimmers.
4. The Dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. Use only with Lutron
Companion Dimmers.
5. In any 3-way/4-way circuit use only one Dimmer with up to 9 Companion Dimmers.
6. Do not use where the total load is greater than the rating indicated in the Derating Chart below.
7. Do not use where total load is less than 50 W / VA.
8. Operate between 32 °F (0 °C) and 104 °F (40 °C).
9. For indoor use only.
10. It is normal for the Dimmers to feel warm to the touch during operation.
11. Recommended minimum wallbox depth is 2.5 in (64 mm).
12. Maximum wire length between the Dimmers and the furthest Companion Dimmer is 250 ft (76 m).
13. Clean with a soft damp cloth only. Do not use any chemical cleaners.
14. DO NOT mix MRF and MRF2 lighting controls products within the same system. Products are
NOT compatible, contact Lutron Technical Support Center.
15. Controls must be mounted vertically. See stamp on control for correct positioning.
16. DO NOT wire while circuit breaker is on. Permanent damage to the Dimmer may result.
17. DO NOT use Incandescent / Halogen or Electronic Low-voltage Dimmers for Magnetic Low-
voltage lighting.
18. Up to 10 Maestro Wireless controls can be configured to work together.
Multigang Installations
When installing more than one control in the same wallbox, the maximum load capacity is reduced.
No derating is required for Companion Dimmers. Refer to the Derating Chart below.

*The maximum lamp wattage is determined by the efficiency of the transformer, with 70%–85% as typical. For actual
transformer efficiency, contact either the fixture or transformer manufacturer. The total VA rating of the transformer(s)
shall not exceed the VA rating of the dimmer.

Multiple Dimmer Applications
If multiple Maestro Wireless Dimmers are set up to the same Wireless Controller, they will perform
as follows:
• Pressing the On Button on the Wireless Dimmers Controller will cause all Dimmers to turn on fully.
• Pressing the Off Button on the Wireless Controller will cause all Dimmers to turn off completely.
• Pressing the Raise Button on a Wireless Controller will cause the Dimmer to turn on and gradually
increase the light level.
• Pressing the Lower Button on a Wireless Controller will cause the Dimmer to gradually decrease
light level.

Set-Up
Important: Set up Wireless Controller to a Dimmer/Switch before use.
1
Press and hold the Dimmer/Switch's Tap Button (Figure 1) for approximately 6 seconds.
Once the LED(s) start to blink slowly,
release the Tap Button.
2
Press and hold the Off Button on the Wireless Controller (Figure 2) for approximately
6 seconds.
3
Once the Dimmer/Switch learns the Wireless Controller, the Dimmer/Switch's LED(s)
and load will flash 3 times and it will exit Set-Up mode.
4
Repeat steps 1 —3 to set up multiple Wireless Controllers to a single Dimmer or Switch.
2008, Article 404.9
®
Repeat steps 1 —3 to set up a single Wireless Controller to multiple Dimmers/Switches.
5
Pressing the Preset Button will cause each Dimmer/Switch to return to it's favorite light setting.
.
®
To save a favorite light setting, adjust all the Dimmers/Switches controlled by a Wireless
Controller to the desired light setting. Then press and hold the Preset Button on the Wireless
Controller for approximately 6 seconds until all LEDs on the Dimmers/Switches stop blinking.
Removing Wireless Controller
To remove a previously set up Wireless Controller tap the Wireless Controller's On button
three times, on the third tap hold for 3 seconds and then tap 3 more times. This will
remove all Dimmers/Switches it was previously setup with.
