Recessed Installation
Installation
Electrical Cover
1.  Remove the side cover panels from the replace by 
removing the 5 screws on each of the cover panels 
(4 on the back of the replace, 1 on the bottom). 
(Figure2)
2.  If a trimless installation is desired, remove pre-
installed trim by removing the screws (number of 
screws will vary by model). (Figure 3)
!
   NOTE: The pre-installed trim helps conceal 
imperfections in the drywall edges against 
the replace and gives the replace a nished 
appearance.
3.  Prepare a framed opening, following the dimensions in 
the table below. (Figure 4)

   CAUTION: This replace is NOT load-bearing. Ensure 
the opening for the replace is framed in such a way 
that the weight of the building materials will not create 
pressure on the top of the replace.
!
   NOTE:  Wiring is performed at the bottom right back 
corner of the rebox. (Figure 5) Plan the framing to 
allow routing the power cable to this location.
4.  Install and nish drywall as desired.
5.  Remove the 3 screws that secure the electrical cover 
to complete the wiring. (Figure 5)
6.  Complete the wiring according to instructions in the 
Electrical Installation section (pp. 12-13). Reinstall the 
electrical cover after wiring is complete.
7.  Lift the rebox into the opening in the framing.
8.  Level the rebox. A bubble level is included in the 
hardware kit provided.
