IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WHEN USING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. Turn power off before inspection, installation or removal. 2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect both normal and emergency power suppliers and converter connector of the emergency driver before servicing. 3. The emergency driver must be fed from the same branch circuit as the AC driver. 4. Do not attempt to service the battery. A sealed, no-maintenance battery is used that is not field replaceable. Contact the manufacturer for information on service. 5. Follow all NEC and local codes. Properly ground electrical enclosure. 6. Use only UL listed wire for input/output connections. Minimum size 18 AWG (0.75mm2). 7. Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel. 8. Do not use outdoors. 9. Do not mount near gas or electric heaters. 10. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use. 11. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Ni-Cd Battery
The rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery in this product must be recycled or disposed of properly.

Optional Safety Brackets: Attach the supplied L-shape safety brackets to the back of the fixture in each corner. Hang the unit through the holes of the brackets with cable. Optional Earthquake Brackets: Position four brackets on both ends of the two long sides of the luminaire. Press brackets to fasten to grid.
Indicator Test Switch Installation 1
Important: This unit must be installed with the factoryprovided remote mount Indicator test switch (ITS). Follow National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code regulations when installing the ITS.
2
Choose a suitable location in a wall or the ceiling for the ITS. Maximum remote mounting distance for the ITS is 50 feet. Install a UL listed single-gang electrical box.
3
Using UL listed wire, minimum size 18 AWG, minimum 75°C rating, and UL listed electrical conduit, connect the leads on the ITS. Provide enough wire to reach the lighting fixture electrical enclosure. Use 18-14AWG twist-on wire connectors.
ITS Installation: BT22, BT14 & BT24 Series
Recommended: use one violet and one brown wire to match the leads on the ITS.
4
Remove one knockout from the single-gang electrical box. Using UL listed conduit, run wire from the ITS to the lighting fixture electrical enclosure.
5
Close the single-gang electrical box using the factory-provided wall plate cover and hardware.
Electrical Connections 1
Important: Make sure the necessary branch circuit wiring is available. An unswitched source of power is required. The emergency driver must be fed from the same branch circuit as the AC driver. BT22 Series
