Safety tips
-
To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.
-
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code “ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
-
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs. Use only UL Listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
-
The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.
-
After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the
equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box. -

- Set the knob of light on the wall control in the “OFF” position and set the knob of speed on the wall control in the “- ”position. (Fig.9)
- Make wire connections (Fig.9) and secure with wire nuts supplied.
- Black wire from fan to black wire marked “To motor L” from speed control.
- Black wire marked “AC in L” from speed control to black wire from the A/C supply source.
- White wire from fan to white wire from the A/C supply source.
- Blue wire from fan to red wire marked “for light” from light control through a red wire which is shown in Fig.3, The red wire may be a different color depending on your location if your unsure please consult with a qualify electrician.
- Connect the fan ground wire (green) to the household ground wire.
If your outlet box has a ground wire (green or bare copper) connect the wall control’s ground wire to it; otherwise connect the wall control’s ground wire directly to one of the screws from the outlet box.
Installing the wall control
Remember to shut the power off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Carefully tuck the wire connections inside the outlet box. Secure the wall control with the two screws provided. (Fig.10)
- Attach the wall plate over the wall control and secure with the two screws provided.
Finishing the installation
- Step 1. Remove one screw from the mounting bracket and loosen the other screw approximately 1/4 turn. Step 2. Carefully raise the canopy up to the mounting bracket, and ensure the loosened screw is inserted into the key hole on the canopy. Rotate the canopy clockwise. (Fig.11 )
- Step 3. Secure the canopy by replacing the screw previously removed and tightening the screw previously loosened. (Fig.11 )
- Step 4. Place the canopy cover on the canopy, and rotate the canopy cover clockwise until it locks into position. (Fig.11 )
Installing the light kit
- Step 1. While holding the 14W LED assembly under your fan, firmly snap the wire connection plugs together. (FIG. 12)
- Step 2. Attach the 14W LED assembly to the switch box by twisting tightly.
Operation
- Restore power to ceiling fan and test for proper operation.
- Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as the room size. Ceiling height, number of fans, etc.
- Turn on the power and check the operation of your fan.
The fan 4-speed control is used to set the fan speed as follows (Fig.13)
- = Turns the fan off
- = High Speed
- =Medium Speed
- = Low Speed
The “ ” button will control the light on or off.
The Reverse switch is located on the fan motor assembly (Fig.14).
Slide the switch to the Left for warm weather operation. Slide the switch to
the Right for cool weather operation.
NOTE: Wait for the fan to stop before reversing the direction of the blade rotation.
Warm weather – (Counterclockwise Direction) A downward air flow creates a cooling effect. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without affecting your comfort. (Fig.15) Cool weather – (Clockwise Direction) An upward air flow moves warm air off the ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting without affecting your comfort. (Fig. 16)
Care and Cleaning
- Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Ensure they are secure. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
- Clean your fan periodically. 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.
- (Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades.
- (Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
- Do not use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
- Do not apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.
