3. Remove the mounting screw (B) and back plate from the xture.
4. Drill holes in the wall aligned with the key holes located in the mounting back plate, insert the plastic anchor (E).
5. Secure the mounting back plate to the junction box using standard junction box screws that comes with the junction box,fasten it to the
ceiling using wood screw (D).
(i) using any other non-original-manufacturer provided junction box screw may result in safety issue;
(ii) The side of the mounting plate marked “GND” must face out.
6. Properly secure the safety cord to the bracket on mounting back plate to temporary hang the xture in place.
CONNECTING THE WIRES (Fig. 2)
7. Connect the driver’s input 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 screw provided. After wires are connected, tuck them carefully inside the junction box.
