! IMPORTANT NOTE ON 3-WAY WIRING:
Some lights have one wall switch, while others are controlled by two or
more wall switches (such as stair lights, which have a switch at both the
top and bottom of the stairs). If your lights have more than one switch
(called a 3-way), we’ve created instructions for how to install and
enable the capability.
Visit cbyge.com/switch-support
for 3-way installation instructions and how-to-videos.
