PREPARATION
1. Shut o the power at the circuit breaker and remove existing
xture, including the crossbar.
2. Carefully unpack your new xture and lay out all the parts on a
clear area. Be careful not to lose any small parts necessary for
installation.
MOUNTING THE FIXTURE (Fig. 1)
3. Remove the mounting screw (C) and gasket (D) from the mounting
back plate.
4. Secure the mounting back plate to the junction box using junction
box screws (B). The side of the mounting back plate marked “GND”
must face out.
5. Remove the at screw (E) and the square column together. Insert
the glass into the xture vertically and carefully, and secure them
with square column using at screws (E).
CONNECTING THE WIRES (Fig. 2)
6. Connect the xture’s wires to junction box wires as shown in Fig. 2,
making sure that all wire connectors (A) are secured. If your outlet
box has a green or bare copper ground wire, connect the xture’s
ground wire to it. Otherwise, connect the xture’s ground wire
directly to the back plate using the green screw provided. After
wires are connected, tuck them carefully inside the junction box.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION (Fig. 1)
7. Secure the xture to the mounting back plate using the mounting
screw (C) and gasket (D).
8. To prevent moisture from entering the outlet box and causing a
short, use clear caulking (i.e. indoor/outdoor silicone sealant) to
outline the outside of xture back plate where it meets the wall.
Leave a space at the bottom to allow moisture to escape Fig.3.
