Bed Bath And Beyond 1821-WT1 Wall Sconce User Manual

Quick Guide from the Manual

This document provides assembly and installation instructions for the Bed Bath And Beyond 1821-WT1 wall sconce. The fixture supports two installation methods: Plug-in (using a wall outlet) or Hardwired (connecting directly to a junction box). Ensure all installation work is performed by an accredited professional. Always shut off the power supply at the fuse or circuit breaker before beginning.

Installation Preparation

Before starting, carefully remove the fixture from the carton and locate the yellow bag containing all parts. Ensure you have the necessary tools, including a screwdriver and a drill. Verify the installation method you intend to use, as the mounting plates differ between the plug-in and hardwired options.

Installation Method 1: Plug-in

1. Ensure the mounting plate (N) is attached to the backplate (D).
2. Hold the fixture against the wall to determine the placement. Ensure it is horizontal and perpendicular to the ground.
3. Mark the keyhole distance on the wall, drill holes, and insert plastic screw anchors (A).
4. Insert mounting screws (C) into the anchors, leaving 2-3mm of the threads exposed.
5. Hang the fixture by hooking the mounting plate (N) onto the screws (C).
6. Proceed to the assembly section.

Installation Method 2: Hardwired

1. Remove the mounting plate (N) from the backplate (D) and install the mounting plate (B) instead.
2. Hold the mounting plate (B) against the junction box and mark the installation holes.
3. Drill holes, insert plastic anchors, and secure the mounting plate (B) to the junction box using mounting screws (A).
4. Trim the plug from the cord (M) using wire cutters, leaving 8-10 inches of cord for wiring.
5. Pull the cord through the hole in the bottom of the backplate (D) and plug the hole with the stopper (N).
6. Connect the wires as described in the wiring section.
7. Secure the backplate (D) to the mounting strap (B) using decorative nuts (F).

Wiring Instructions

If hardwiring the fixture, follow these steps:

• Hot to Hot: Connect the fixture's hot wire (smooth, black, or transparent with black inner thread) to the house hot wire.
• Neutral to Neutral: Connect the fixture's neutral wire (ribbed, white, or transparent with white inner thread) to the house neutral wire.
• Ground to Ground: Connect the fixture's ground wire (green, copper, or transparent with green inner thread) to the house ground wire.
• Use wire connectors to secure the pairs, ensuring all twists are in the same direction.
• If no house ground wire exists, wrap the fixture's ground wire around the ground screw (E) on the mounting bracket.

Assembly

1. Unscrew the finial (K) from the harp fitter (H) and set it aside.
2. Place the harp fitter (H) into the saddle (G) until the caps slide down.
3. Install a light bulb (not included) according to the fixture's specifications. Do not exceed the maximum recommended wattage.
4. Place the cloth shade (J) on the top thread of the harp fitter (H) and secure it with the finial (K).
5. If using the plug-in method, plug the cord into the nearest outlet.
6. Twist the knob (L) clockwise to turn the fixture on or off.

Safety Warnings

• All installation work should be done by an accredited professional.
