Installation Tips

After you have set up the Light Strip via the Kasa Smart app, you can cut it to length-fit and attach it to any surface with the 3M adhesive.
To avoid damaging your Light Strip, please note the following Installation tips before installing the Light Strip.

1. Cut Only On Specific Areas of Light Strip
You can custom tailor the length of your Light Strip with scissors, but only cut the excess length along the cutting lines of the light strip after unplugging it.

2. Avoid Sharp Turns
Carefully roll the Light Strip into a clover or use a gentle hill when making 90° turns like those need behind a TV. Sharp bends can damage your Light Strip.

3. Avoid Sharp Corners
Use gentle weeps when bending Light Strip around corners and avoid creases as they may cause damage.

4. Avoid Bending on LED Beads
The bend should be avoided just in the position of the LED components, so as not to damage the product and affect the life of the product.

How to Install Your Light Strip

1. Choose Location
Choose a location that is free from static and away from splashing water. Find a clean, dry, and smooth surface, and then wipe off any dust.

2. Remove Adhesive Tape
Unplug the Light Strip first. Peel away the 3M adhesive backing bit by bit and stick your Light Strip to the surface.

3. Remove Adhesive Tape
Stick the light strip and press it down for 10-15 seconds. Secure the controller with the adhesive pads. Do not move it to other place after it is attached.
