Symptom
Possible Cause
Light does not turn on.
• Front Accessible Service Switch
(FASSTM) on the dimmers are
switched to the left side.
• Light bulb(s) burned out.
• Breaker is off or tripped.
• Blue wire on Accessory Dimmer
not connected to the same color
wire as the blue wire on Dimmer.

FCC Information
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Lutron
Electronics Co. could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
FASS™ - Front Accessible Service Switch - to replace bulb,
power may be conveniently removed by pulling FASS switch
out on both the Dimmer and any Accessory Dimmers.
For any procedure other than routine lamp replacement,
power must be disconnected at the main electrical panel.
For detailed instructions on programming the
system, refer to the RadioRA® Setup Guide that
is included with an RF Signal Repeater or the
Setup and Installation Guide that is included
with a Choronos System Bridge and Timeclock.

Do not exceed maximum load rating of dimmers.
In any 3-way/4-way circuit use only one Dimmer with
up to 9 Accessory Dimmers.
Dimmer may not work with dioded lamps (Sylvania
Designer 16™ or Philips PAR-16™).
Operate in ambient temperatures between 0°C
(32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal
operation.
Recommended wallbox depth: 31/2" deep
recommended, 21/2" deep minimum.
The range and performance of the RadioRA® System
is highly dependent on a variety of complex factors
such as:
•
•
•
•
Distance between system components
Geometry of the home
Construction of walls separating system components
Electrical equipment located near system components

(magnetic) low-voltage transformers. Do not use to
control solid-state (electronic) low-voltage
transformers.
CAUTION: Operating a dimmed low-voltage circuit
with all lamps inoperative or removed may result in
current flow in excess of normal levels. To avoid
possible transformer overheating and premature
failure, Lutron strongly recommends the following:
• Do not operate dimmed low-voltage circuits without
operative lamps in place.
• Replace burned-out lamps immediately.
• Use transformers with thermal protection or fused
primary windings to prevent transformer failure due
to excess current.
