There are 3 methods in which you may install your Instant Switch:

Install on a wall:
- To mount your Instant Switch directly onto a wall, first thoroughly clean the wall’s surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove any dirt or dust.
- Remove the plastic backing to the Command™ Strip from 3M and align the strip with the recessed area on the back of the Instant Switch.
- Peel off the other side of the plastic backing and ensure that the product is level before pressing firmly to the wall. Hold for 30 seconds.
- Install the magnetic iDevices faceplate or a rocker style faceplate of your choice. If the faceplate you choose requires screws, use the shorter, 6mm screws provided to anchor the faceplate to the Instant Switch.
Install next to a gang box:
- Install the Command™ Strip from 3M onto the back of the Instant Switch.
- Mount the faceplate onto the Instant Switch using the provided 6mm screws.
- Peel off the plastic backing of the Command™ Strip from 3M.
- Carefully line up your faceplate with the existing wall switches and press to the wall for 30 seconds.
- Install the remaining faceplate screws into the adjacent wall switch(es).
