Caution:  To avoid overheating and possible
damage to other equipment, do not use to control
receptacles, fluorescent lighting fixtures, motor-
operated or transformer-supplied appliances.

Install in accordance with all national and local
electrical codes.

Do not paint dimmers or wallplates.

soft damp cloth only. Do not use any

chemical cleaners.

Do not use where total wattage is under
recommended minimum load.

Do not exceed maximum load rating of dimmers.

In any 3-way/4-way circuit use only one 

Dimmer with

up to 9 

Accessory Dimmers.

Dimmer may not work with dioded lamps (Sylvania
Designer 16™ or Philips PAR-16™).

The range and performance of the RadioRA

 System

is highly dependent on a variety of complex factors
such as:
• Distance between system components
• Geometry of the home
• Construction of walls separating system components
• Electrical equipment located near system components

Do not mix RadioRA

“A”(RA-) and “B” (RB-)

products within the same system. “A” products and
“B” products 

are not compatible.

Dimmer.

120 V      50/60 Hz

Use  models “RALV/RBLV” with only core and coil
(magnetic) low-voltage transformers. Do not use to
control solid-state (electronic) low-voltage
transformers.

CAUTION: Operating a dimmed low-voltage circuit
with all lamps inoperative or removed may result in
current flow in excess of normal levels. To avoid
possible transformer overheating and premature
failure, Lutron strongly recommends the following:
• Do not operate dimmed low-voltage circuits without

operative lamps in place.

• Replace burned-out lamps immediately.
• Use transformers with thermal protection or fused

primary windings to prevent transformer failure due
to excess current.
