Are you an early-adopter that has recently received replacement switches? Here's what to do next.

Swap out your old switches for your new Deako Switches

Your old Deako switches are not compatible with your new Deako switches. Keep your old switches separated from your new Deako switches. Then securely pack the old switches, and return the switches using the shipping label provided.

Mixed up the switches? They can still be separated using the serial numbers. Contact us for more details.

If you have 3-way or 4-way sets, they must be linked

Multiple switches that control the same set of lights must be linked to each other before they will work properly. Follow this guide for assistance linking your switches.

In the Deako App, create a new location

Switches must be paired to the Deako App before you can control them using your phone. To get started, create a new location.

1. Login to the Deako App.

2. Tap the gear icon at the top right.

3. Select Location.

4. Select Create a New Location.

Pair your new switches & Deako Connect to your new location

1. Tap the gear icon at the top right.

2. Select Manage Devices.

3. Select Add a Switch or Configure under Deako Connect.
