1. Introduzzjoni
This instruction manual provides comprehensive guidance for the installation, configuration, and operation of the JASCO GE Z-Wave On/Off Relay Switch, Model 45609 (ZW4001). This device is designed to integrate into your Z-Wave wireless lighting control system, enabling remote ON/OFF control of permanently installed lighting fixtures and ceiling fans.
The GE Z-Wave On/Off Relay Switch offers a convenient solution for smart home automation, compatible with various lighting types including CFL, LED, Xenon, Halogen, Fluorescent, and Incandescent. It supports both 2-way and 3-way wiring configurations when used with an auxiliary switch.
2. Informazzjoni Importanti dwar is-Sigurtà
TWISSIJA: RISKJU TA' XOKK ELETTRIKA. Installation involves high voltage wiring. Improper installation can result in serious injury or death. Always consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about any part of the installation process.
- SKONNETTA L-ENERĠIJA: Before installation, turn OFF the power to the switch location at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- NEUTRAL WIRE REQUIRED: This switch requires a neutral wire for operation. If your existing switch box does not have a neutral wire, consult a qualified electrician.
- UŻU BISS BISS: Dan l-apparat huwa maħsub għall-użu fuq ġewwa f'postijiet niexfa.
- LOAD COMPATIBILITY: Ensure the connected load does not exceed the switch's maximum rating.
- KONTROLL TAL-FAN: This switch provides ON/OFF control for ceiling fans; speed control is not supported.

4. Setup u Installazzjoni
Follow these steps carefully to install your GE Z-Wave On/Off Relay Switch. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring, please consult a qualified electrician.
4.1 Dijagramma tal-Wajers ta' Fuqview
The switch requires Line (Hot), Load, Neutral, and Ground connections. For 3-way installations, an auxiliary switch (e.g., GE 45610) and a traveler wire are also required.

4.2 Passi ta' Installazzjoni
- Itfi l-Enerġija: Locate the circuit breaker or fuse that supplies power to the switch box. Turn it OFF completely. Verify power is off using a voltagtester.
- Neħħi Swiċċ Eżistenti: Carefully remove the wallplate and unscrew the existing switch from the wall box. Disconnect the wires from the old switch, noting which wire was connected to which terminal. It is recommended to label the wires (Line, Load, Neutral, Ground, Traveler if applicable).
- Identifika l-Wajers:
- Linja (Sħuna): Connects to the electrical panel, providing power.
- Tagħbija: Connects to the light fixture or fan.
- Newtrali: Typically white, required for the switch to operate.
- Art: Wajer tar-ram mikxuf jew aħdar.
- Traveler (for 3-way): Connects to the auxiliary switch.
- Wire the Z-Wave Switch: Connect the wires to the GE Z-Wave switch terminals as follows:
- Wajer tal-art: Connect to the green GROUND terminal.
- Wajer newtrali: Connect to the white NEUTRAL terminal.
- Wajer tal-Linja (Sħun): Connect to the black LINE terminal.
- Wajer tat-Tagħbija: Connect to the black LOAD terminal.
- Traveler Wire (if 3-way): Connect to the red TRAVELER terminal. Cap off the traveler wire if not used.
- Immonta l-Iswiċċ: Carefully fold the wires and push the switch into the wall box. Secure the switch with the provided screws.
- Installa l-Wallplate: Attach the new wallplate (not included) over the switch.
- Irrestawra l-Enerġija: Erġa' ixgħel il-kurrent mis-circuit breaker.
- Funzjonalità tat-Test: Manually press the rocker switch to ensure the connected light or fan turns ON and OFF.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1 Kontroll Manwali
The GE Z-Wave On/Off Relay Switch can be operated manually:
- Press the top of the rocker switch to turn the connected device ON.
- Press the bottom of the rocker switch to turn the connected device OFF.
- An LED indicator on the switch illuminates to show its location in a dark room.
5.2 Inklużjoni tan-Netwerk Z-Wave (Tqabbil)
To add the switch to your Z-Wave network:
- Place your Z-Wave controller into inclusion (pairing) mode. Refer to your controller's instruction manual for specific steps.
- Once the controller is in inclusion mode, quickly tap the top or bottom of the rocker switch once. The LED indicator on the switch may flash to confirm inclusion.
- The controller will confirm successful inclusion. You can now control the switch remotely through your Z-Wave network.
Nota: Pairing typically requires a light, quick tap, not a prolonged press.
5.3 Z-Wave Network Exclusion (Unpairing)
To remove the switch from your Z-Wave network:
- Place your Z-Wave controller into exclusion (unpairing) mode. Refer to your controller's instruction manual for specific steps.
- Once the controller is in exclusion mode, quickly tap the top or bottom of the rocker switch once. The LED indicator on the switch may flash to confirm exclusion.
- The controller will confirm successful exclusion. The switch is now removed from your Z-Wave network.
6. Manutenzjoni
- Tindif: Biex tnaddaf is-swiċċ, imsaħ b'ċarruta ratba u damp drapp. Tużax tindif jew solventi li joborxu.
- L-ebda Partijiet li jistgħu jservu mill-utent: There are no user-serviceable parts inside the switch. Do not attempt to open or repair the device.
