OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Using a ceiling fan will allow you to raise your thermostat setting in summer and lower your thermostat setting in winter without feeling a difference in your comfort.
   • In warmer weather, push the reverse switch left which will result in downward airflow creating a wind chill effect.
   • In cooler weather, push the reverse switch right which will result in upward airflow that can help move stagnant, hot air off the ceiling area.
   • Important: Wait for the fan to stop before moving the reverse switch. The reverse switch must be set either completely left or right in order for the fan to function correctly. If the reverse switch is set in the middle position, the fan will not operate.
2. The fan pull chain has four positions to control fan speed. One pull is HIGH, two is MEDIUM, three is LOW and four turns the fan OFF.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you have difficulty operating your new ceiling fan, it may be the result of incorrect assembly, installation or wiring. In some cases, these installation errors may be mistaken for defects. If you experience any faults, please check the Troubleshooting section below. If a problem cannot be remedied or you are experiencing difficulty in installation, please contact the Service Department: 1-877-706-3267, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Central, Monday – Friday.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, shut off the power supply to fan before you begin any maintenance tasks.

• Fan does not start

1. Make sure that the wall switch is turned ON.
2. Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
3. Check all wire connections from household supply wires to the fan.
4. Make sure forward/reverse switch pushed completely left or right. Fan will not operate when switch is in the middle.

• Fan is noisy:

1. Make sure all screws in motor assembly are snug, but not overtightened.
2. Make sure the screws that attach the blade arms to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire connectors are not rattling against each other or against the interior wall of the switch housing.
4. Make sure wire connectors are not rattling against each other or against the interior wall of the canopy.
5. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed controls. DO NOT USE a Solid State variable speed control.
6. Ensure fan does not wobble excessively (see Fan wobbles solutions below).

• Fan wobbles:

1. Ensure the mounting bracket is tightened securely to outlet box and outlet box is mounted firmly to ceiling joist.
2. Ensure all blades are screwed firmly into blade arms.
3. Ensure all blade arms are tightened securely to motor.
4. Switch one blade with a blade from the opposite side. Or balance the fan using the blade balancing kit.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
