If angle mounting, orient the ceiling plate with the arrows pointing toward
the ceiling peak.
POWER
Turn Power OFF
BUMPERS
Make sure all four (4) bumpers are still attached.
FOR CONCRETE CEILINGS
If you have a concrete ceiling, follow steps 1-4 before proceeding to page 15
. If you have a non-concrete ceiling, follow steps 5-9 before proceeding to
page 15.
Identify the supply mains in the ceiling and drill two holes using the ceiling
plate (A) as a guide for measurement and accuracy.
FOR CONCRETE CEILINGS
Drive the M6 x 50 mm expansion anchors (A) into the holes until there is only
approximately 10 mm of exposed anchor.
Thread the supply mains (A) through the center hole of the ceiling plate (B).
FOR CONCRETE CEILINGS
Align the Anchor bolts (A) with the oval slots in the ceiling plate (C). Push
the Ceiling Plate onto the anchors (B) until the rubber isolators (D) are
tight against the ceiling. Place the flat washer, spring washer, and nut (E)
onto the anchor bolt and secure tightly. Proceed to page 12.
FOR NON-CONCRETE CEILINGS
Drill two pilot holes into the wood support structure using the ceiling plate
(A) as a guide for measurement and accuracy. Place a flat washer (A) on both
of the wood screws (B).
FOR NON-CONCRETE CEILINGS

POWER
Turn Power ON
- Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for the intended use.
- Replace all batteries of a set at the same time.
- Ensure the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
Wireless frequency: 433.93MHz
Maximum Output Power: less than 1.0mW
The remote transmitter should already be paired to the receiver and ready to
use.
Note: If your need to pair your remote, remove the battery door. Cycle
power to the fan by turning power off and back on at the wall switch (or
circuit breaker if necessary).
Within three minutes, press the pair button on the remote. To prevent faulty
operation, please disconnect power from all other ceiling fans within range
while pairing.
Fan Operation:
Press and quickly release the fan button on the remote control to turn the fan
OFF or ON. Use the fan control directional pad to raise or lower the fan to
the desired speed.
Light Operation (for fans with a light kit):
Press and quickly release the light button on the remote control to turn the
light OFF or ON. Press and hold the light button for continuous dim.
Changing the bulbs – rotate the globe counter clockwise and lower once
released from the tabs. Replace bulbs with bulbs of the same type and wattage.
Reinstall the globe.
To switch the direction of air flow, move the reverse switch to the opposite
position. You will need to remove the light kit glass to do so.
In warm weather, ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward
(counterclockwise) providing the room with a cool breeze.
In cool weather, set your fan to draw air upward (clockwise) to distribute the
warmer air trapped at the ceiling without causing a draft.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Caring for finishes:
For cleaning, a soft brush or lint-free cloth should be used to prevent
scratching the finish. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier dust.
Surface smudges or an accumulation of dirt and dust can be easily removed by
using a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. An artistic agent may be
used, but never use abrasive cleaning agents as they will damage the finish.
Caring for blades:
Wood finish blades should be cleaned with a furniture polish cloth.
Occasionally, a light coat of furniture polish may be applied for added
protection and beauty. Painted
and high-gloss blades may be cleaned in the same manner as the fan finish.
