OPERA TING THE REMOTE CONTROL/WALL CONTROL

Remote Control only: Install a A2312 volt battery (included). To prevent damage to transmitter remove the battery if not used for long periods of time.

Your DC brushless motor is equipped with a self  learning frequency function remote control. Restore power to ceiling fan and test the transmitter as below for proper operation:

A. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 button:
These six buttons are used to set the fan speed as follows:

• 1 = minimum speed
• 2 = low speed
• 3 = medium low speed
• 4 = medium speed
• 5 = medium high speed
• 6 = high speed

Reverse button:

• This butt?n is used to change the direction of the rotation of the blades; forward for warm weather or reverse for cool weather.

button:
This button turns the power Off to the Fan.

Button:
These buttons turn the light ON or OFF and also control the brightness settings of the light. The following instructions apply to ceiling fans that feature a DOWN light ( buttonl only or ceiling fans that feature an UP light ( button) and a DOWN light ( button) that are controlled independent of each other;

to turn the light ON or OFF. Press and hold the button to set the desired light brightness. The light will cycle between bright and dim settings as long as the button is pressed. The light key has an automatic auto-resume feature that allows the light to remain at the same brightness as the last time it was turned off.

Note: The Auto Learning function will be enabled only within 60 seconds of restoring power to the ceiling fan.

1. Select desired frequency from the back of transmitter.

2. Press the transmitter’s “Off” button, and hold the “Off” button for over 10 seconds. Once the receiver has detected the frequency, the down light of your fan if applicable will blink twice. (There is no indication if your fan is not equipped with a light)_
   Note: The learning frequency function will continue to retain the last set frequency even when the AC power is shut off. The DC motor has a built in safety feature against obstruction during operation, if the fan motor senses a obstruction for 60 seconds or more it will get locked and will not rotate until the obstruction has been removed and the power has been disconnected for S seconds.

3. Over 60W protection: When the receiver detects motor power consumption which is greater than 60W, the receiver’s power will stop and operation will be immediately discontinued. if you want to re-start the fan, Please remove obstacles and disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breaker . And turn the power on after 5 seconds.

4. “DIMMER” and “ON/OFF” dip switch: The “DIMMER” selection is the light dimmable selection and is to be used with all bulbs except for CFL bulbs. The”ON/OFF” selection is For CFL bulbs.

Speed settings for warm or cold weather depend on factors such as room size, ceiling height, and the number of fans.

NOTE: to change the direction of the rotation of the blades the fan must be in operation mode.

Warm Weather (forward)
A DOWNWARD airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Figure 23. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool Weather <Reverse)
An UPWARD airflow moves warmer air off the ceiling area as shown in Figure 24. This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

CARE OF YOUR FAN
