Installation Instructions
The SYLVANIA LED ULTRA RT6 Gimbal recessed kit is designed to install in standard 6” insulated and
non-insulated recessed downlight housings. For a list of compatible housings, please refer to
www.SYLVANIA.com/RT6.
The LED ULTRA RT6 Gimbal recessed kit can be dimmed, however updates on dimmer technology
and special conditions may apply depending on dimmer type being used. To be assured of the
latest information regarding recessed kit and dimmer compatibility, please reference
www.SYLVANIA.com/RT6 to find the latest list of compatible dimmers when using multiple
ULTRA RT6 recessed kits.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device. 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 communications.
Note: It may be necessary to remove a socket mounting plate for adequate clearance in the compatible
housing. Each lampholder shall be installed only in its intended manner and orientation. Not all existing
recessed housings that meet this requirement will be compatible with the SYLVANIA ULTRA RT6. To ensure
compatibility, a test installation should be conducted.
