Questions & answers

It is easy to set up the Hue dimmer switch?

We think so! Setting up the Hue dimmer switch only takes a few minutes, whether you have a Bluetooth-controlled or a Bridge-controlled setup. 

Do I need to connect any electrical wires to install the Hue dimmer switch?

No. The Hue dimmer switch is battery powered and wireless, so you won’t have to do any rewiring. Attach the wall plate to any flat surface using the included adhesive backing or screws (sold separately).

How is the Hue dimmer switch different from a traditional light switch?

The Hue dimmer switch can turn your lights on and off just like a traditional light switch. However, it can also brighten and dim the room and set light scenes, as well as double as a remote control. Just remove the switch from the wall plate to use it anywhere in your home or attach it to any magnetic surface.

Can I customize the settings of a Hue dimmer switch?

Yes — if you have a Hue Bridge in your setup. You can adjust the settings for your Hue dimmer switch by navigating to Settings > Accessory setup in the Hue app. While you can use a Hue dimmer switch with a Bluetooth-controlled Philips Hue system, you'll only be able to use the default settings.

Can I use a Hue dimmer switch to control my outdoor lights?

Yes. You can set up a dimmer switch to control your outdoor Hue lights in the Hue app. However, Hue dimmer switches are rated for indoor use, so be sure to only use them inside.

My Dimmer switch is no longer working properly.

If your Hue dimmer switch was once connected to a Hue Bridge and functioning normally:

· Make sure that all four LED indicator lights on top of the Hue Bridge are on.

· Make sure that your Hue dimmer switch is operational by pressing any button and checking that the LED indicator is lighting up green.

· Make sure the dimmer switch is within range by ensuring that it is not farther away from the Hue Bridge than your farthest light.

· Make sure that the Hue lights you want to control are functioning correctly in the Hue app. If not, this could indicate a problem with the light itself rather than the dimmer switch.

· In the Hue app, go to Settings > Accessories and select the problematic Hue dimmer switch. Make sure the configuration settings are correct and select Save to save your settings.

· Restart the Hue dimmer switch by pressing and holding all four buttons of the switch at the same time. Let go when you see the LED indicator on the front of the dimmer switch flash red and green.

· Perform a hard reset of your dimmer switch by pressing and holding the Setup button on the back of the switch for 10 seconds.

If your Hue dimmer switch was never connected to a Hue Bridge and was functioning normally:

· Make sure that your Hue dimmer switch is operational by pressing any button and checking that the LED indicator is lighting up green.

· Make sure the dimmer switch is within range of your Philips Hue lightl; the maximum range of the dimmer switch is about 12 meters.

· Make sure the Philips Hue light you want to control with your dimmer switch is connected to electricity — the corresponding light switch should be flipped to the "on" position.

· Restart the Hue dimmer switch by pressing and holding all four buttons of the switch at the same time. Let go when you see the LED indicator light on the front of the switch flash red and green.

If your Hue dimmer switch flashes red when you press a button:

In this case, the Hue dimmer switch has lost its connection and needs to be reconfigured. Reconnect the dimmer switch to your Hue Bridge by navigating to Settings > Accessories in the Hue app.

The Philips Hue smart button is battery powered, wireless, and magnetic, meaning you can mount it anywhere you’d like. Place it on any magnetic surface or use the included mini mount with adhesive to attach it to a flat surface.

How does the Hue smart button work?

After you pair the smart button to your Philips Hue setup and choose which lights it will control in the Hue app, it’s ready to use. Press the button once to turn lights on to the best light for that time of day by default. Press it again to turn the lights off. Press and hold the button to dim or brighten the room. You can customize your settings by navigating to Settings > Accessory setup in the Hue app.

Can I customize the settings of my smart button?

The Hue smart button is programmed to set the best light setting based on time of day by default, but you can always customize it with the Hue app: select your favorite scenes for each time of day or adjust the time slots.

How do I install the Hue smart button?

If your Hue smart button came with a Philips Hue starter kit, first set up your lights and Hue Bridge before configuring the Hue smart button.

Each button on the Tap dial switch can cycle through scenes, and each button can control a separate Room or Zone. The dial dims or brightens one Room or Zone.

What is the difference between the Tap dial switch and the Tap dial switch with mini mount?

The only difference is the mount that the Tap dial switch comes with. The mini mount is a small, circular mount that sits directly behind the switch. You can't see it when the Tap dial switch is mounted on it, so it's a more discreet mount.
