Lucci AIR Whitehaven 122cm 3 Blade DC Fan

Lucci-AIR-Whitehaven-122cm-3-Blade-DC-Fan-PRODUCT-IMG

THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING

  • Thank you for purchasing the latest in energy saving ceiling fans. This fan runs on DC (direct current) power which gives it the benefit of being super energy efficient whilst still maintaining high volume air-movement and silent operation.
  • Energy saving – The DC motor is the latest technology in fan design. Its highly efficient motor saves up to 65% more energy than ceiling fans with traditional AC motors.
  • Silent operation – This DC fan motor is programmed with a stabilised current which efficiently reduces motor noise.
  • Low operating temperature – The DC power is managed effectively which brings down the motor operating temperature to less than 50℃℃. This results in a much cooler motor than a standard AC fan and increases the longevity of the motor.
  • 6 speed remote control – Regular AC ceiling fans usually come with only 3 speeds, this DC fan comes complete with a 6 speed remote, which gives a greater choice of comfort levels.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

  1. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

  2. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

  3. An all-pole disconnection switch must be incorporated into the fixed wiring, in accordance with local wiring rules. IN AUSTRALIA WARNING: FOR SAFE USE OF THIS FAN AN ALL-POLE DISCONNECTION MUST BE INCORPORATED INTO THE FIXED WIRING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE WIRING RULES. As outline in clause 7.12.2 of AS/NZS 60335-1 for meeting the minimum electrical safety of this standard. Please note warranty will be void if installation is without a means for an all-pole disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
    Example: If a fan is connected to a circuit that can be isolated via an all- pole safety switch at the switchboard, then this is considered to be an all- pole disconnection to the ceiling fan electrical circuit, meeting the requirements of clause 7.12.2 of AS/NZS 60335.1. A single-pole switch on the active of the receiver input of remote control must also be included in the wiring, and located the same room as the ceiling fan.

  4. Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste, use separate collection facilities. Contact your local government for information regarding the collection systems available. If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the ground water and get into the food chain, damaging your health and well-being.

  5. The structure to which the fan is to be mounted must be capable of supporting a weight of 20kg.

  6. The fan should be mounted so that the blades are more than 2.1 m above the floor in Australia.

  7. This fan is suitable for indoor, alfresco and coastal areas where the fan is fully undercover with a minimum of 1 wall. This fan is not waterproof. When installed in an alfresco or coastal area, the ceiling fan must be positioned in a location protected from water, wind and dust. Exposure to these elements will void the warranty. Mounting the fan in a situation where it is subject to water or moisture is dangerous and may increase the risk of damage, injury or electrical shock and will void the warranty.

  8. Must be assembled and installed by a licensed electrician.

  9. The replacement of parts of the safety suspension system device shall be performed by the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.

  10. The fixing means for attachment to the ceiling such as hooks or other devices shall be fixed with a sufficient strength to withstand 4 times the weight of the ceiling fan; that the mounting of the suspension system shall be performed by the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.

  11. WARNING: If unusual wobbling or oscillating movement is observed, immediately stop using the ceiling fan and contact the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.

  3. Follow the guide below to operate the fan and learn the functions.

Lucci-AIR-Whitehaven-122cm-3-Blade-DC-Fan-FIG-12

  • The LED globe has a 3-step dimmable function which is controlled by an ON/OFF switch.
  • When the LED light is ON and at 100% brightness, press the light button “ON and then OFF within 3 seconds”, to dim the LED light. Repeat pressing ON and then OFF within 3 seconds to dim further in the following sequence: 100% brightness → 50% brightness → 15% brightness → 100% brightness.
  • The remote has memory function. If the fan or light is turned off by the isolating switch over 7 seconds, the next time to turn on the fan or light will be on last setting.

REPAIRING THE FAN RECEIVER & REMOTE PAIRING
NOTE: The pairing of the remote and receiver has been done at the factory.
When the ceiling fan is installed, pairing the fan receiver and remote is NOT required.
Should the remote and receiver lose control after installation or during use, the pairing of the remote and the receiver must be repaired. Below are the operating symptoms and method to repair the pairing of the DC ceiling fan remote and receiver.

Issues

  • Loss of control – Fan is only running at high speed after installation
  • Loss of control – No reverse function after installation
  • Loss of control – Remote cannot communicate with the receiver

Solution

  • Switch off the main power of ceiling fan.
  • Switch on the main power of the ceiling fan. Press and hold the On/Off button on the remote for 5 seconds within 30 seconds after switching on. There will be a notification ‘beep’ sound from the receiver to indicate that the paring process is successful.
  • Turn on and select the different speed of the ceiling fan to check the operation of the fan.

INSTALLING THE TRANSMITTER HOLDER
Install the holder (A) to the wall with two screws provided (B), hang up the transmitter by the holder.

AFTER INSTALLATION

WOBBLE
NOTE: ceiling fans tend to move during operation due to the fact that they are mounted on a rubber grommet. If the fan was mounted rigidly to the ceiling it would cause excessive vibration. Movement of a few centimetres is quite acceptable and DOES NOT suggest any problem.
TO REDUCE THE FAN WOBBLE: Please check that all screws which fix the mounting bracket and down rod are secure.
BALANCING KIT: A balancing kit is provided to balance the ceiling fan on initial installation. Please refer to the instruction on how to use the balancing kit. The balancing kit can be used to assist re-balancing should the ceiling fan become un-balanced again. Store your balancing kit away after installation for future use if required.
NOISE
When it is quiet (especially at night) you may hear occasional small noises. Slight power fluctuations and frequency signals superimposed in the electricity for off-peak hot water control, may cause a change in fan motor noise. This is normal. Please allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period, most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time. All electric motors are audible to some extent. Please note that this is not a product fault, and as such is not covered under warranty.

CARE & CLEANING

NOTE: Always turn OFF the power at the mains switch before performing any maintenance or attempting to clean your fan.

  • Every 6 months periodic cleaning of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required. Use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the paint finish. Please turn off electricity power when you do so.
  • Do not soak or immerse your ceiling fan in the water or other liquids. It could damage the motor or the blades and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
  • Ensure that the fan does not come in contact with any organic solvents or cleaners.
  • To clean the fan blade, wipe with only a damp clean cloth with NO organic solvents or cleaners.
  • The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing so there is no need to oil.
