Installing your RALPH LAUREN RL4721 Perren 18 Inch Flush Mount requires careful attention to detail. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
Tools You'll Need: You'll need a Phillips screwdriver, a slotted screwdriver, a drill, a hammer, and a pencil.
Installation Steps:
- Carefully unpack all the fixture components and place them on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
- Remove the mounting plate (B) from the fixture (F) by unscrewing screws (E).
- Use the mounting plate (B) as a template to mark the anchor positions on your junction box.
- Drill holes at the marked locations. These holes should be slightly smaller than the anchors (I).
- Install the anchors (I) into the drilled holes.
- Secure the mounting plate (B) to the junction box using mounting screws (C) and wood screws (J), ensuring they are anchored into the anchors (I).
- Place the glass (G) into the shade (H), then attach the shade (H) to the fixture (F) and secure with screws (D).
- Thread the support cable through the hole on the back of the mounting plate (B). Loosen the cable lock and secure it to the end of the support cable, then tighten the lock.
- Wrap the fixture's ground wire (bare copper) around the green grounding screw and tighten it. Connect the fixture ground wire to the supply ground wire using a wire nut (A).
- Connect the fixture neutral wire (white) to the supply neutral wire using a wire nut (A).
- Connect the fixture hot wire (black) to the supply hot wire using a wire nut (A). It's important not to reverse the hot and neutral wire connections.
- Double-check that all wire connections are secure and neatly tucked into the junction box.
- Finally, attach the fixture (F) to the mounting plate (B) using screws (E).
Important Safety and Maintenance Notes:
- RALPH LAUREN recommends installation by a qualified professional familiar with electrical work and local codes.
- Before you start, inspect the fixture for any damage or defects.
- Ensure the fixture is properly grounded.
