How to use

Before replacing the cover component, switch off power to the circuit and ensure the switch mechanism is not live. Remove the existing cover according to the original installation instructions for the Gira system by releasing any retaining clips or screws. Align the new aluminium-colour cover with the frame and press or secure it into place until it sits flush. Restore power and verify correct mechanical operation of the switch. For multi-gang installations, repeat the procedure for each cover as needed.

Recommendations

Use this accessory only with Gira-compatible frames and modules. Verify visual and mechanical compatibility before installation. Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could alter the finish. If unsure about electrical procedures, consult a qualified electrician for safe installation.
