Important Notice for Installer

To achieve proper aesthetic installation of the Acenti products,
the wall surface surrounding the wall box opening must be fairly
fl at and free of irregularities. The wall box must be level and
recessed or fl ush to the wall surface. The Acenti installation
system allows for adjustments that will correct minor fl aws that
may be present in the installation area.
This device must be installed with the Acenti TM Alignment Plate.
The Alignment Plate is packaged with the Acenti TM Wallplate,
which is sold separately from this device.
The Alignment Plate will function properly only if it is mounted to
a fl at 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 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 fi gures):
