How to use

Remove the existing cover or frame from the switch assembly according to the switch manufacturer’s instructions and disconnect power if required. Align the Homematic IP 156171A0 cover with the switch mechanism and secure it into the standard 86×86 mm opening.

For shutter, blind or awning control, choose a rocker with arrows and the appropriate adapter already inserted to ensure correct operation with the actuator. Follow local electrical safety guidelines when installing or replacing switch covers and consult a qualified electrician if unsure.
