FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL LOCKING PIN AS NOTED IN STEP 7 COULD RESULT IN FAN LOOSENING AND POSSIBLY FALLING.

Step 8. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor firmly. (Fig. 7)
Step 9. Place the downrod ball into the hanger bracket socket.

Make the Electric Connections

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.

NOTE: This remote control unit is equipped with 16 code combinations to prevent possible interference from or to other remote units. The frequency switches on your receiver and transmitter have been preset at the factory. Please recheck to make sure the switches on the transmitter and the receiver are set to the same position, any combination of settings will operate the fan as long as the transmitter and receiver are set to the same position. (Fig. 8)

Step 1. (Fig. 9) Insert the receiver into the mounting bracket with the flat side of the receiver facing the ceiling.
Step 2. (Fig. 10) Motor to Receiver Electrical
Connections: Connect the Black wire from the fan to Black wire marked “TO MOTOR L”. Connect the White wire from the fan to the White wire marked “TO MOTOR N” from the receiver.
Connect the Blue wire from the fan to the Blue wire marked “For Light” from the receiver. Secure wire connections with the plastic wire nuts provided.
Step 3. (Fig. 10) Receiver to House Supply Wires Electrical Connections: Connect the black (hot) wire from the ceiling to the black wire marked “AC in L” from the receiver. Connect the white (neutral) wire from the ceiling to the white wire marked “AC in N” from the Receiver. Secure the wire connections with the plastic wire nuts provided.
Step 4. (Fig. 10) If your outlet box has a ground wire (green or bare copper) connect it to the fan ground wires; otherwise connect the hanging bracket ground wire to the mounting bracket.
Secure the wire connection with a plastic nut provided. After connecting the wires spread them apart so that the green and white wires are on one side of the outlet box and black and blue wires are on he other side. Carefully tuck the wire connections up into the outlet box.
NOTE: Fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 20 feet from the transmitting unit for proper signal transmission between the transmitting unit and the fan’s receiving unit.

Finishing the Installation

Step 1. Tuck connections neatly into ceiling outlet box.
Step 2. Slide the canopy up to mounting bracket and place the key hole on the canopy over the screw on the mounting bracket, turn canopy until it locks in place at the narrow section of the key holes. (Fig. 11)
Step 3. Align the circular hole on canopy with the remaining hole on the mounting bracket, secure by tightening the two set screws. Note: Adjust the canopy screws as necessary until the canopy and canopy cover are snug.

WARNING
Make sure the notch on the hanging bracket properly sits in the groove in the hanger ball before attaching the canopy to the bracket by turning the housing until it drops into place.

Attaching the Fan Blades

Insert the blade through the slot in the housing.
Align the holes in the blade support plate, blade and the fan motor assembly and secure with the screw and fiber washer. (Fig. 12)

Installing the Mounting Plate

Step 1. Remove 1 of the 3 screws from the mounting ring and loosen the other 2 screws. (Do not remove)
Step 2. Place the key holes on the mounting plate over the 2 screws previously loosened from the mounting ring, turn mounting plate until it locks in place at the narrow section of the key holes. Secure by tightening the 2 screws previously loosened and the one previously removed. (Fig. 13)

Installing the Light Kit

CAUTION: Before starting installation, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse at fuse box. Turning power off using the fan switch is not sufficient to prevent electric shock.

If you do not plan to install the light kit with your fan at this time, skip step 2.

1. Remove 1 of 3 screws from the mounting plate and loosen the other 2 screws. (Do not remove)
2. While holding the LED light kit under the fan motor assembly, make the 2-pin wire connections:
   • White to white
   • Black to blue
3. Place the key holes in the LED light kit over the two mounting screws previously loosened from the mounting plate. Turn the LED light kit until the LED light kit locks in place at the narrow section of the key holes. Secure by tightening the two screws previously loosened and the one previously removed. (Fig. 14)
4. Raise the glass shade (or metal light cover) up against the LED light kit and secure it to the fan by turning the glass shade clockwise until snug.
   DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. (Fig. 14)
   NOTE: The metal light cover included with your fan is an option to replace the glass for the light in the event that you prefer not to use the light feature of your fan. The metal light cover is not necessary for the light operation; it can be saved for later use if desired.

Operating Your Transmitter

Installing the battery

Install 12V MN21/A23 battery (included), to prevent damage to transmitter, remove the battery if not used for long periods.

Restore power to ceiling fan and test for proper operation.

1. ” , , ” buttons:
   These three buttons are used to set the fan speed as follows:
   = Low speed
   = Medium speed
   = High speed

2. ” ” button:
   This button turns the fan off.

3. The ” ” button turns the light ON or OFF and also controls the brightness setting. Press and release the button to turn the light ON or OFF. Press and hold the button to set the desired brightness. The light key has an auto-resume, it will stay at the same brightness as the last time it was turned off.

The Reverse switch is located on the motor housing. Slide the switch to the Left for warm weather operation. Slide the switch to the Right  for cool weather operation.

NOTE: Wait for fan to stop before changing the setting of the slide switch.

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

Warm weather – (Forward) A downward air flow creates a cooling effect as shown in Figure 17. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool weather – (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown in Figure 18.
This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort.

Blade balancing

All blades are grouped by weight. Because natural woods very in density, the fan may wobble even though the blades are weighed equally.
The following procedure should correct most fan wobbling problems. Check after each step.

1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
2. Most fan wobbling problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure this distance as shown in Fig. 19. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1/8″.
3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.

Care of Your Fan

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan

1. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4.  There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.

IMPORTANT
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION “MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Troubleshooting

Problem/Solution

Fan will not start

1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.

2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
   CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

3. Check to make sure the dip switches from the transmitter and receiver are set to the same frequency.

Fan sounds noisy.

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight.

3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
   CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappear during this time.

5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the lampshade are tight. Check that light bulb is also secure.

6. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls. If you have installed this type of control, choose and install another type of control.

7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.

Remote control malfunction

1. Do not connect the fan with wall mounted variable speed control (s).
2. Make sure the dip switches are set correctly.
