Each fixture consumes 9.5 watts. For compatible dimmer information, see page 3.
2. This light is suitable for wet locations.
WARNING: Risk of fire or electric shock. For use only with 4” or 5” recessed housings. American Lighting sells AL4-ICAT for new
construction installations. When using with existing cans, confirm X45 assembly will fit before installation by checking the interior
of the housing for a manufacturer’s part number and specifications; or measure the diameter of the housing. The recessed
housing must have a measured inside diameter (opening) of 3-7/8” to 4-1/4“ for X4-aaa-bb-X45 trim accessories with a minimum
clearance height of 3-3/4”; or a measured inside diameter (opening) of 5” to 5-1/4“ for X5-aaa-bb-X45 trim accessories with a
minimum clearance height of 5” . The minimum clearance height is measured from the can flange to the socket at the back of the
housing. If the existing housing does not have sufficient clearance, loosen the wingnut inside the can and detach the adjustable
socket plate from the socket. See Figure 1.
Each X45 light module includes an attached lead wire with a 120V plastic connector for use with either an E26 or
GU24 adaptor. The E26 adaptor is included; the GU-24 adaptor is sold separately. Each light module requires a trim
kit to make a complete recessed downlight. Trim kits are sold separately. Compatible versions are part numbers
X4-aaa-bb-X45 or X5-aaa-bb-X45, where aaa denotes the style and bb denotes the finish. See Figure 2.
