Instructions d'installation

- Prepare the Grid Module: Ensure your 6-gang grid module (not supplied) is correctly installed and wired into the wall box according to electrical regulations. The module should be securely fixed to the wall box.
- Attach the Faceplate Frame: The screwless faceplate consists of two parts: a main frame and a decorative front plate. Align the main frame with the grid module and secure it using the screws provided with your grid module. Ensure it is flush with the wall.
- Secure the Decorative Front Plate: Once the main frame is securely attached, carefully clip the decorative screwless front plate onto the main frame. Apply gentle, even pressure until it clicks into place. Ensure all edges are flush and there are no gaps.

Opération
The screwless faceplate itself does not have operational functions. Its purpose is to provide a clean, aesthetic finish for your installed 6-gang grid modules (e.g., light switches, dimmer switches, or sockets). Once installed, the functionality is determined by the grid modules fitted within it.
To remove the decorative front plate for maintenance or access to the grid modules, carefully insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the notch at the bottom edge of the faceplate and gently pry it off. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the finish.
Entretien et nettoyage
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your faceplate, follow these simple guidelines:
- Nettoyage: Essuyez la surface avec un chiffon doux et sec. Pour les taches tenaces, frottez légèrement avec un chiffon doux.amp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by drying with a clean, soft cloth.
- Éviter: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the matt black finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check for any signs of damage or loose connections. If any issues are found, consult a qualified electrician.
