GUARANTEE
In case of any defect, return the dimmer to our service
department. Varilight undertakes to repair or replace, at its
discretion, goods which have become defective within 10
years of purchase, solely as a result of faulty materials and
workmanship, provided that:a) The unit has been correctly fitted according to the
instructions and has not been used with an incompatible
load, fluorescent tubes, or overloaded beyond its rating, and
has only been used on a 200-250V a.c. power supply.
b) The dimmer module has not been tampered with or taken
apart. However, for your convenience, it is perfectly in order
to remove a faulty dimmer module from multi-gang dimmers
by pulling off the knob and unscrewing the nut under the
knob. You will then still have the remaining modules working
whilst we service your faulty module.
c) The unit is securely packed and safely returned to:-
Service Department, Carylls Lea, Faygate, Horsham,
West Sussex, RH12 4SJ (Tel. (01293) 223333) together
with a letter stating the guarantee registration number below,
the date and place of purchase, the type and wattage of the
lighting or other load being controlled and the details of the
fault.
This guarantee states Varilight’s entire liability, which does
not extend to cover consequential loss or damage or
installation costs arising from a defective product. The
guarantee does not apply to problems arising from any
incompatibility between your lamps and the dimmer switch.

FITTING YOUR DIMMER
Read the instructions below carefully. Incorrect installation may
damage the dimmer beyond repair.
In case of any doubt or difficulty consult a qualified electrician.
1. Switch off at the mains, then remove the existing switch and
disconnect the wiring from the s witch terminals at the rear, taking
note of the present wiring of the switch and the marking on the
terminals. Where there are two or more wires together in the old
switch, they must be kept together in the switch.
2. Ensure that any wall box is free of plaster lumps or projecting
screw heads. Switches on single-sized plates can be fitted to wall
boxes having 60.3mm screw fixing centres and those with doublesized plates to wall boxes with 120.6mm fixing centres. Most
models can be fitted into a box with a minimum depth of 25mm. A
box having 4 fixing lugs cannot be used without modif ying it. The
top and bottom lugs must be broken off or bent flat.
3. To connect the wiring for 1-way or 2-way circuits refer to the
diagrams below. T ake care that no bare wires project out of the
terminals. Keep wires together in a terminal if they were together
in your old switch.
4. Switches having a metal front plate must be earthed by means of
the earthing point on the plate.
5. After connecting the wires screw the switch gently into the wall
box so that the front plate is not distorted or cracked. Do not trap
the wiring between the rear of the dimmer and the back of the wall
box.
6. Once installation is complete. Switch on the mains supply and
switch on.
The switch in this product is rated at 6A.
Check the in-rush current for LED bulbs or drivers does
not exceed 6A before connecting. Fit inrush current
