Step 1: Getting Ready for Setup

Before getting started you'll need:

A smart device running iOS 11.0 and higher, or Android OS 6.0 and higher.
A 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network
To install your Smart Dimmer. If you have not yet installed your Smart Dimmer follow How Do I Install the Smart Dimmer as a Single Pole Dimmer? or How Do I Install the Smart Dimmer as a 3-Way Dimmer?

Step 2: Connect to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Download the Feit Electric App

1. First, make sure your phone is connected to a 2.4Ghz network. The Smart Dimmer only operates on a 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi frequency and is not compatible with 5Ghz networks (in some cases you may need to set up a dedicated guest network on this frequency). Make sure that your phone is not using a VPN app in the background. If you are not able to see a 2.4 GHz network in your Wi-Fi listing contact your service provider or router manufacturer for support.

2. Download the Feit Electric App

3. Tap Register to create a new account and follow the directions in the app or Log in

Step 3: Set Up Your Smart Dimmer

1. If your Smart Dimmer is installed, press the power button on the Smart Dimmer. You will see a solid circular light when the Smart Dimmer is powered on.

2. Open the Feit Electric app and click the "+" on the top right corner of the screen OR click on Add Device.

3. Choose control & sensors, and then dimmer switch.

4. If the indicator light is blinking, tap confirm. If it is not blinking, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds or until it starts blinking. Then tap confirm.

5. Enter the password for your Wi-Fi network. Note: Make sure your phone is connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. The Smart Indoor Plug is NOT compatible with a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network.

6. The Smart Dimmer will now begin connecting. If connection fails, check and make sure you entered your Wi-Fi password correctly. If connection fails again, stop and repeat the previous step, or view help for other tips.
