Unpack your ceiling fan carefully, remove all parts and components, and lay on a cloth or soft surface to avoid damage. Do not lay the motor housing on its side, the housing may get damaged. Before commencing installation, check that all parts are included.

Warning: All electrical tasks should only be undertaken after disconnection of electricity by removing fuses or turning off the circuit breaker to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Installation of The Mounting Bracket

The hanger bracket must be screwed on to a firm, flat surface. The structure to which it is installed must be able to withstand ten times the static weight of the fan.

Wooden surface:

If installing the ceiling fan into a wooden ceiling or joist, attach the mounting bracket using the 4 supplied self-tapping screws. Note: Self-tapping screws are only suitable for wooden ceilings.
Ensure the mounting bracket is properly secured to prevent the fan from falling.
Loosen the two canopy screws from the mounting bracket.

Concrete surface:

If installing the ceiling fan into a concrete ceiling, drill out the four holes in the mounting bracket using an 8mm drill bit.
Attach the mounting bracket using the 4 M6 expansion bolts.
Once the mounting bracket is installed, drill a 10mm hole next to the bracket.
Note: Be cautious when drilling the 10mm hole to avoid hitting an electrical wiring.
Install the expansion screw hook in the 10mm hole.

Installation of The Down Rod and Hanger Ball

Unscrew the screw on the down rod’s hanger ball, then loosen the hanger ball.
Remove the stop pin from inside the down rod and remove the hanger ball.
Remove the clevis pin and hairpin clip from the down rod.

Note: For installation in higher ceilings, you may require the extended down rod. Transfer the hanger ball on it and make sure to move the earth wire from one to the other. Pass the electrical supply leads from the top of the motor all the way through the down rod until they come out the other end.

Insert the down rod into the motor housing’s hole and align the holes on both sides with the holes on the down rod.
Carefully insert the clevis pin through the holes so that it passes through the down rod. Secure the clevis pin in place using the hairpin clip.
Tighten all the fastener to ensure there is minimal rod and fan movement during operation.
IMPORTANT: Ensure all screws are fastened properly. Loose screws will cause; the motor to oscillate excessively, damage to the fan or fatal injuries.
Once the above steps are all finished, install the hanger ball onto the down rod.
Insert the stop pin in the down rod and lift the hanger ball.
Tighten all the screws firmly so that all the components are properly secured.

Hanging The Fan to The Mounting Bracket

Lift the fan up to the mounting bracket, insert the hanger ball in the mounting bracket through the opening and carefully let it rest.
Rotate the. hanger ball and make sure that the tab located in the mounting bracket is aligned with the hanging balls slot.
When aligned, the fan will automatically sit on its correct position. This will prevent rotation of the rod and fan when the unit is operating.
Note: When installing the fan, ensure the fan ceiling cover doesn’t press the antenna (or other wire). Doing so may cause damage to the wire or short- circuiting

Remote Receiver and Wiring Instruction

Place the receiver through the hanging bracket and connect the wires following the color codes.
Connect the push connectors from the fan to the remote receiver.
Note: Refer to the “Wiring Diagram” section for more detailed information.
Note: Ensure the ground wire is connected correctly, otherwise it will cause the fan or light to malfunction.

Wiring the Fan

Connect the 220-240V mains power (dwelling) to the terminal block on the mounting bracket.
Attach the receiver to the mounting bracket with the flat side facing upwards.
Connect the 3P connector from the hanger bracket into the AC POWER INPUT socket on the receiver.
Connect the 2P light connector from the fan motor assembly into the 2P LIGHT socket on the receiver.
Insert the 3P motor connector from the fan motor assembly into the 3P MOTOR socket on the receiver.
WARNING: To avoid potential electric shock, ensure the electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring

Wiring Diagram

Pairing the Remote to the Receiver

Turn “ON” the power supply and then within 30 seconds, on the remote press and hold the “Fan ON/OFF” button for 5 seconds. The fan will emit a long “beep” sound, indicating pairing is successful.

Note: The fan will exit learning mode after the power supply has been on for longer than 30 seconds.

If pairing fails, double check that all wiring is correct, the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (+/-) and that the batteries are not flat.
Check if there are any similar remote-controlled products nearby. Remote controlled products using the same frequency will interfere with each other.
Low battery will affect the sensitivity and signal reception accordingly of the remote control. The indicator flash when the batteries are getting get low and need to be replaced.
If leaving unused for an extended period, remove the batteries from the remote control

Remote control notes

Adopt RF wireless digit emission technique, biunique controlled, coincident code rate is less than one millionth,
If the remote control or receiver are damaged, contact help.Kogan.com support for maintenance.
The remote control can be used from any angle of the receiver.
With the memory function, the controller can save the status (light and direction) while the supply power is OFF and will resume after turning the power supply back ON.

Blade Assembly

Remove the 3 screws and the lamp holder from the fixing panel
Insert the blades through the motor housing’s side slots and align them with the 3 holes.
Secure the blades using 3 blade screws and ensure that the blade screws are tightened properly. Do not over tighten the screws as this can damage the blades. Repeat this process for the remaining blades.
Note: if installing more than one fan, be careful not to mix up the blades and screws as each model is designed with specific materials and parts.

Installing the LED Light and Glass Shade

Align the lamp holder’s screw holes with those on the motor and attach both parts by means of the screws provided.
Connect the LED light wires to the fan motor wires.
Carefully install the glass shade into the main body and turn it clockwise to lock it.
WARNING: Do not over tighten when installing the glass shade.

Balancing Kit

The Balancing Kit should only be used if there is an unacceptable amount of fan wobble after completing the previous installation steps.

Turn the fan on and set the speed control setting to a speed at which the wobble is the greatest.
Turn off the fan and allow it to come to a complete stop. Select one blade and place the balance clip on it, halfway between the blade holder and the blade tip on the trailing edge of the blade.
Turn the fan on. Note whether the wobble has increased or decreased. Turn the fan off, move the clip to another blade, and retest. Repeat this procedure on all blades noting the blade on which the greatest improvement is achieved.
Move the clip back to the blade that showed the greatest improvement. Move the clip inward and outward on this blade and operate the fan to find the optimum position where the clip gives the greatest improvement.
Remove the clip and install a balancing weight to the top of the blade along the centerline near the point where the clip was positioned.
If the fan wobble problem has not been corrected, you may wish to try to improve the balancing further by using the balancing clip and additional weights.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem	Troubleshooting Steps
The fan does not start up

Check all the fuses or circuit breakers.
Turn off the electrical power and check all wire connections

The fan emits noises|

Always allow a few days “break in” time for any new fan at medium or high speed. Try to diagnose the exact location of the noise by listening carefully from several sides (blades, motor, light kit, etc.).
Ensure all screws in the fan assembly and light kit are tight and properly threaded. If not, back out and retighten. Tighten these screws at least once a year because they may loosen slowly over time and cause a clicking noise.
Make sure the light kit is securely fastened to the fan, and all glass screws are finger tightened only. Do not tighten with pliers or a screwdriver.
Make sure the mounting bracket is installed snugly to the junction box.
Make sure wire nuts in the switch housing or the canopy are not rattling against each other or against the housing’s wall. Wrap with electrical tape if necessary.
Make sure the canopy is not touching the ceiling.
Ensure that the screws fastening the blade holders to the motor are tight and the lock washers provided for that purpose have been used.

The fan does not produce much air|

The fan may be running in reverse, so air is directed upward.
The room may contain items that obstruct the airflow.
The fan may be too small for the size of the room.

Fan wobbling| Note: a small amount of wobble is considered acceptable and should not be considered a defect.

Make sure the mounting bracket is fixed tightly to the ceiling with no movement at all. Tighten screws if necessary.
Make sure all screws holding the blades to the blade support and blade support to motor are tight.
Make sure the light kit and the glass screws are tight.
