Avoid aiming the control at:  
• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such as  
heating vents and air conditioners. These heat  
sources could cause false triggering.  
• Areas where pets or traffic may trigger the control.  
Nearby large, light-colored objects reflecting light  
may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point other  
lights at the sensor.
