Do we need steering device for operating TRÅDFRI bulbs?
You’ll need a steering device to operate your light bulb at all times.
The steering device allows you to turn the lights on/off, dim them, or change their color temperature depending on the bulb type. A control interface—such as a remote control, wireless dimmer, or motion sensor is required. If you bought the bulbs separately, make sure to pair each one individually with the steering device.
