This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a

Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in

a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Caution: Any changes or modiﬁcations to this device not explicitly approved by

manufacturer could void your authority to operate this equipment.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,

and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirement. The

device can be used in portable exposure condition without restriction.

You can rename your devices in the Geeni app, and Alexa will refer to

them by the same name.

So if you rename a smart bulb to “Living Room“ or a nickname like

“Blossom,“ then Alexa will use that same name later on.

Alternatively, you can create an Alexa group, like “Bedroom“ or

“Downstairs,“ and add the device to the group.

Alexa will recognize the group name in the Alexa app, or the device name

in the Geeni app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I share with family and friends?

Yes, you can share your device with family and friends who

other Geeni devices. In the Geeni app, press the Profile button

downloaded the Geeni app and registered a new account.

Can I group multiple Geeni devices together?

Yes, you can group multiple devices of the same type

together, by room, location, or however else you want. The

same devices can be in multiple groups. (For example, create

a group for “Bedroom” and another group for “Entire House”,

and your Bedroom lights can be included in both groups).
