Surface Mount Contacts<br />
Using surface mount contacts, the switch and magnet are both concealed when the<br />
window is closed. Use off-white, white or mahogany brown units to match plastic<br />
cover on the window.<br />
Important: Anderson recommends against mounting switches in sills due to<br />
possible damage from water. If you must drill into the sill, make sure you provide a<br />
solid, tight seal using RTV compound.<br />
Select position of switch and magnet. Ventilation may be achieved with the use of<br />
a wide gap switch placed on the top of the window near the hinged side.<br />
Drill hole for wires. Slant back 15˚ to 30˚ to make sure wires go inside wall. Drill at<br />
