Wemo App and Wemo Light Switch Setup
 
Step 1:  Download and install the Wemo App on your mobile device  from the App Store® if you are using an iOS device or from the Google Play™ store if you are using an Android™ device.

Step 2:   Enable the Wi-Fi feature of your mobile device and make sure it is connected to your Wi-Fi.  This is required to ensure no error is encountered upon installation.

NOTE:  If you have multiple Wemo devices, connect to the one with the same Wemo ID at the back of the device.  The Wemo ID is the word WeMo, followed by Wemo model, and then three alphanumeric characters.
