  • g. This remote control unit is equipped with roll code combinations. In order to prevent possible interference from or to other remote units such as garage door openers, car alarm or security system. If you find that your fan and light kit go on and off without using your remote control, simply change the code combination in your transmitter and receiver

OPERATING TRANSMITTER:

Operating the buttons on the panel of the transmitter.

  • 3 key -for fan high speed.
  • 2 key-for fan medium speed.
  • 1 key-for fan low speed.
  • OFF key-for fan off.
  • LIGHT key-for light on and off.
  • 2hr, 4hr, 8hr button to set the FAN sleep timer

If there are two or more ceiling fans installed in the same house, in order to prevent your ceiling fans from being affected by the remote control of the adjacent ceiling fans, first turn the switch in each remote control transmitter to the CODE(UP) position (see the schematic diagram FIG1) Remarks: The standard state of the transmitter is in the down code COM.
(Power-off means you need to use a wall switch to shut down the power of the ceiling fan, if you do not have a wall switch, please power off the whole room from the air circuit-breaker for each room)

After installing the remote control receiver on the ceiling fan

  1. Turn on the power of the 1# ceiling fan receiver (the power of the 2# receiver is kept in a power-off state), within 30 seconds after the fan power is turned on, press the LEARN button corresponding to the 1# transmitter, then The receiver will learn the transmitter code. When the transmitter code is leamed successfully, the light of the ceiling fans will flash twice, and then it can be used normally.
  2. Turn on the power of the 2# ceiling fan receiver (the power of the 1# receiver is kept in a power-off state), within 30 seconds after the fan power is turned on, press the LEARN button corresponding to the 2# transmitter, then The receiver will leam the transmitter code When the transmitter code is learned successfully, the light of the ceiling fans will flash twice, and then it can be used normally.
    And so on, only one ceiling fan is powered on each time the corresponding transmitter learns.
    After the 1# and 2# remote control transmitters have been successfully learned, turn on the power of the two ceiling fans. At this time, the 1# transmitter and the 2# transmitter can be used separately for one ceiling fan.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Table of Contents

  1. Fan / Remote is not working
  2. Fan is noisy
  3. Fan Wobbles
  4. Light is not working

Please refer to the instruction sheet for detailed directions and descriptions of installation steps and requirements.

FAN / REMOTE IS NOT WORKING

  • Ensure the remote is within the 20 foot range of the receiver
  • To reset the remote control: 1) Turn off power to fan using the wall switch or circuit breaker. 2) Remove batteries from remote. 3) Wait 10 seconds. 4) Replace batteries and turn power on Check batteries to insure they are good and oriented correctly
  • Check to make sure the frequency switches (DIP Switches) from the remote to the receiver are set to the same frequency
  • Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers
  • If using a Variable Speed Wall Switch, ensure it is specifically designed for use with a ceiling fan.
  • Check the line wire connections to the fan and the switch wire connections in the switch housing per the instructions
  • If fan still does not work, please contact Customer Service Support@parrotuncle.com

THE FAN IS NOISY

  • Make sure all motor housing screws are tightened
  • Make sure the screws that attach fan blade to motor are tight
  • Make sure the wire nut connectors are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing
  • Allow 24-hour break in period. Most noises associated with the new fan may disappear during this time
  • If using a ceiling light kit, make sure the glassware is secured tightly
  • Make sure there is a short distance/gap from the ceiling to the top of the canopy. The canopy should not touch the ceiling!
  • Make sure your ceiling box is secure and that the rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket and outlet box

THE FAN WOBBLES

  • Verify all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by loose parts). Once fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan self-adjust.

  • If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:
    sest pitont to eling bene then, fonte te but Tense beate fosbone damesee from the center measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade. Measurements should be within 1/8 inch.

  • If all deviation are less than 1/8 inch and the fan continues to wobble, please contact Customer Service Support@parrotuncle.com to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit

LIGHT IS NOT WORKING

  • Check Bulb to make sure it is installed correctly Remove non-working bulb and replace with a bulb that is known to be a good working bulb
  • To reset the remote control: 1) Turn off power to fan using the wall switch or circuit breaker. 2) Remove batteries from remote. 3) Wait 10 seconds. 4) Replace batteries and turn power on

AFTER INSTALLATION

WOBBLE”

  • The fan blades have been adjusted in the factory to minimize any wobble
    NOTE : CEILING FANS TEND TO MOVE DURING OPERATION DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY

  • ARE MOUNTED ON A RUBBER CROMMET. IF THE FAN WAS MOUNTED RIGIDLY TO THE CEILING, IT WOULD CAUSE EXCESS VIBRATION. MOVEMENT OF A FEW CENTIMENTERS IS QUITE ACCEPTABLE AND DOES NOT SUGGEST ANY PROBLEM TO REDUCE THE FAN WOBBLE: PLEASE CHECK THAT ALL SCREWS WHICH SECURED THE MOUNTING BRACKET AND DOWNROD ARE SECURE. BALANCING A WOBBLING CEILING FAN:

For your convenience, a Balancing Kit is included; please follow this procedure when balancing the fan:

  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.Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be equal within 1/8″ (0.32cm).
  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 ARM WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES, OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES. NOISE
    When it is quiet(especially at night) you may hear occasional small noises. This is normal. Please allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period, most noises associated with a new fan disappear during the time.

CARE AND CLEANING

  1. 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 make sure to turn off electricity power before you clean your fan
  2. Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the blades and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
  3. The motor has permanently lubricated ball bearing. No need to oil
    NOTE : MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY CLEANING OR REPAIRS.
