3. Informació de seguretat

• Risc elèctric: Always disconnect the main power supply at the circuit breaker or fuse box before attempting any installation, wiring, or maintenance. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
• Personal qualificat: Installation and wiring should only be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all local and national electrical codes and regulations.
• Voltage i actual: No excedeixi el vol especificattage (250 V~) and current (16 AX) ratings of the switch. Overloading can cause damage to the device and create a fire hazard.
• Condicions ambientals: Ensure the installation environment is dry and within the specified operating temperature range. This device is rated IP40, meaning it is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm, but not against water.
• Integritat del producte: Do not modify or disassemble the switch. Use only genuine VIMAR accessories and components.

4. Instal·lació (Configuració)

This section outlines the general steps for installing the VIMAR 0R14005 Diverter Switch. Specific wiring diagrams for diverter switches should be consulted based on your electrical system and local regulations.

1. Desconnecteu l'alimentació: Turn off the power to the circuit at the main electrical panel. Verify that the power is off using a voltage provador.
2. Preparació del cablejat: Ensure that the electrical wires (live, switched live 1, switched live 2, and earth if applicable) are properly stripped and ready for connection.
3. Connecteu els cables: Connect the wires to the terminals on the back of the VIMAR 0R14005 switch. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your VIMAR Plana support frame or consult a qualified electrician for correct diverter switch wiring. Typically, a diverter switch has three terminals for the switched live wires and one for the common live wire.
4. Mount Switch Module: Snap the VIMAR 0R14005 switch module into the appropriate opening of a VIMAR Plana series support frame. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
5. Install Support Frame: Secure the support frame, with the switch module installed, into the flush-mounted electrical box in the wall.
6. Fixeu la placa de paret: Once the support frame is securely mounted, attach the decorative VIMAR Plana series wall plate over the frame and switch module.
7. Restaura l'alimentació: Turn the power back on at the main electrical panel.
8. Funcionalitat de prova: Test the switch to ensure it operates correctly, controlling the intended lighting or circuit.

5. Funcionament

The VIMAR 0R14005 is a diverter switch, meaning it allows you to control a single electrical load (e.g., a light) from two different locations when paired with another diverter switch, or to switch between two different circuits from one location. Its operation is straightforward:

• Canvi: Pressing the toggle button will change the state of the connected circuit. For a diverter setup, this means it will either complete or break the circuit path, allowing the load to be controlled from either switch.
• Illumination (Optional): If an optional illumination module is installed, the button may light up to indicate its state or for easy location in the dark.

6. Manteniment

The VIMAR 0R14005 Diverter Switch requires minimal maintenance to ensure long-term performance.

• Neteja: To clean the surface of the switch, gently wipe it with a soft, dry, or slightly damp drap. No utilitzeu netejadors abrasius, dissolvents ni productes químics agressius, ja que poden danyar l'acabat o els components interns.
• Inspecció: Inspeccioneu periòdicament l'interruptor per detectar qualsevol signe de danys, connexions soltes o decoloració. Si observeu algun problema, desconnecteu l'alimentació i consulteu un electricista qualificat.
• Button Replacement: If the button or its illumination module (if installed) needs replacement, ensure power is disconnected before carefully prying off the old button and snapping in the new one.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your VIMAR 0R14005 Diverter Switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• L'interruptor no respon:
  • Check if the main power supply to the circuit is on.
  • Ensure all wiring connections are secure and correct according to the wiring diagram.
  • If part of a multi-way switching setup, check the other diverter switch(es) for proper operation.
• Illumination Not Working (if applicable):
  • Verify that the illumination module is correctly installed and connected.
  • Check if the illumination module itself is faulty and requires replacement.
• Sobreescalfament o olor de cremada:
  • Immediately disconnect power to the circuit.
  • This indicates a serious electrical issue. Do not attempt to fix it yourself. Contact a qualified electrician immediately.

If the problem persists after attempting these steps, contact a qualified electrician or VIMAR technical support.
