Safety Information

Warning!

1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.

2. All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

3. This fan is suitable for use with solid-state speed controls.

4. To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only the fasteners provided with the junction box for mounting to the junction box. Most junction boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
   TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, & PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO A JUNCTION BOX MARKED “ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

5. The junction box and support structure MUST be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 50 pounds. Use only UL listed junction boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT”.

6. After marking electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the junction box. The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the junction box.

7. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.

8. Do not use the reverse switch while the fan blades are in motion. To prevent damage and ensure long use, the fan must be turned off and the blades stopped before reversing direction.

9. Do not place objects in the path of the blades.

10. Exercise caution when working around or cleaning the fan.

11. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the fan body and blades. Do not use water or detergent.

12. The electrical diagrams provided herein are for reference only. Light kits that are not packaged with the fan must be UL listed and suitable for use with this fan. Switches must be UL general use switches. Refer to their separate instructions for proper assembly.
    NEVER BEND THE BLADES FOR ANY REASON.

Preparation

1. Turn Off Your Power
   Begin installation by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers to the wiring you will be using. Use your compatible UL listed junction box if you already have one installed.
   Failure to disconnect the power supply prior to installation may result in serious injury or death.

2. Choose Your Mounting Position
   If you need to install a new UL listed junction box, secure it directly to your building’s structure using appropriate fasteners and materials. Do not use plastic boxes. The junction box and its supports must be able to support the MOVING weight of the fan (at least 50 lb.) and be rated for fan support.

3. Choose a Suitable Location
   Ensure the blades will be at least 30 inches from any obstruction and at least 7 feet above the floor. In locations without a ceiling joist, a hanger support bar may be required. Do not install in damp locations.

Initial Installation

Step 1. Pass the supply wires from the junction box through the central hole of the mounting bracket.
Step 2. Secure the bracket to the junction box with the metal washers and mounting bolts or screws.
Fan Housing Installation

Step 1. Remove the 8 pre-installed bolts from the reinforcing plate on the top of the motor assembly.
Step 2. Fit the fan housing in place on the reinforcing plate and secure it by replacing and retightening the bolts.
Downrod Mounting

Step 1. Remove the locking pin and retaining clip from the downrod.
Step 2. Loosen the two locking bolts on the top of the motor assembly.
Step 3. Carefully slide the canopy, canopy cover, and coupling cover onto the downrod.
Step 4. Feed the wires of the fan motor assembly through the downrod.
Step 5. Install the downrod onto the top of the motor assembly, aligning their holes and replacing the pin and the clip.
Step 6. Retighten the previously loosened bolts.
Step 7. Place the downrod’s top mount onto the mounting bracket. Rotate the entire assembly until the tab has dropped into its slot and sits firmly. The entire motor assembly should no longer rotate if seated properly.
Failure to reattach the locking pin and/or properly seat the downrod can cause the fan to fall from the ceiling during operation.
DO NOT use the fan before ensuring it is properly secured and the motor cannot rotate.

Circuit Connections

Again, ensure that the power has been cut before working with the wiring. Use the wire nuts provided with your fan.
Ensure there are no loose wires or connections, and secure connectors with electrical tape.
Step 1. Insert the receiver into the tray with the receiver facing the ceiling. For best results, make sure the white antenna on the end of the receiver remains extended and not tangled with any of the electrical wires.
Step 2. Connect the 5 colored wires of the receiver to the 5 identically colored wires of the fan motor. Secure each set with the provided wire nuts.
Step 3. Connect the 2 colored wires of the receiver to the 2 identically colored wires of the junction box. Secure each set with the provided wire nuts.
Step 4. Connect the green or bare copper ground wire of the junction box to the ground wire of the ceiling fan motor. Separate the white and green connections from the black wire connections, which should be kept on opposite sides of the junction box.
Canopy and Cover Installation

Step 1. Tuck all the connections neatly into the outlet box.
Step 2. Slide the canopy up to the ceiling mounting bracket and place the key hole slots over the mounting screws or bolts on the bracket. Rotate the canopy until the screw or bolt heads lock in place at the narrow section of the key hole.
Step 3. Attach the canopy cover to the bottom of the canopy and screw it into place.
Fan Blade Installation
Step 1. Remove the bolts and washers pre-installed on the blade holder underneath the fan motor assembly.
Step 2. Fit the blades in place on the blade holder, aligning their holes with each other.
Step 3. Making sure the blades are straight, secure them by replacing and retightening the bolts and washers.

Light Installation
Step 1. Remove the bolt from the bottom of the fan motor.
Step 2. Feed the wire plug of the fan motor through the middle of the light plate. Install the light plate onto the motor and secure it by replacing and tightening the bolt.
Step 3. Connect the LED light kit to the light plate using its magnetic suction-cup bolt.
Step 4. Connect the wire plugs of the LED light kit to the wire plugs of the fan motor (blue to blue and white to white).
Step 5. Fit the shade onto the light plate, screwing it into place. Ensure it is firmly connected to avoid loosening during use.

Color Temperature Adjustment

The LED light has 3 different color settings: Warm White (3000K), Daylight (4500K), and Cool White (6000K). To adjust the light settings,

1. Press LIGHT on the remote control to turn on the LED light.
2. Press LIGHT again to turn off the light.
3. Press LIGHT to turn on the light once more with the next color temperature in order.
   Repeat these steps to toggle among 3 color temperatures.

Remote Control Operation

Install the remote control holder onto any wall or suitable flat surface using two mounting screws/bolts.

DO NOT press F or R to reverse the fan’s direction while the fan is turning. Wait for it to stop completely before changing the direction of its rotation.
This remote operates with a range of 30 feet (10 m). It uses 2 1.5V AAA batteries (not included). If the remote will not be used for a prolonged period, it is recommended to remove the batteries for better service life.

Troubleshooting

needed.
Cut off power to the fan and check its internal electrical connections.
Replace the remote control’s batteries.
Check that the fan cover is correctly placed and no screws interfere with the movement of the blades.
Contact customer service to replace a faulty remote control.
Fan is too noisy| Check that all fasteners are well tightened.
Ensure the canopy housing has a short distance between itself and the ceiling.
Upon initial installation, allow 24 hours of use for the machine to break itself in.
Cut off power to the fan and check that the wire nut connections are not rubbing against one another or the inner housing.
If you have installed a solid-state variable-speed control, cut off power to the fan and disconnect this control from the device. See if using the remote resolves the problem, which can be caused by erratic signals from such controls.
Fan wobbles during use| Check that all fasteners are well tightened.
Use the provided balance kit to adjust the blades if their tips are found to be an unequal distance from the ceiling while well fastened.
Exchange the position of the various blades.

Again, do not bend the blades during any of these procedures.
