NOTES

In most houses, the ceiling fan is placed in the center of the room, replacing a light. In this way, the ceiling fan provides evenly distributed airflow throughout the room.

Since a ceiling fan typically requires no more power than a light, the existing electrical circuit should not be overloaded. But if the ceiling fan is equipped with lamps, make sure the electrical circuit is strong enough to support the load. If this is not the case, you will need to install a new circuit with a new circuit breaker on the main electrical panel or an auxiliary panel so that the ceiling fan has its own circuit without powering any other device. If there is no central light in the room, you will need to define a location where the ceiling fan will be  installed and carry electricity

A connection box is required. Never use a plastic box.

FANELITE ceiling fans can weigh up to 25 kg with accessories. Make sure that your ceiling fan hanger bracket is firmly attached and that your installation can support a weight of at least 68 kg.

For your own safety and that of others, please check the weight of your ceiling fan and adjust the resistance of your installation if necessary. The ceiling fan hanger bracket must beupported by the ceiling structure.
Your installation must also be able to withstand the vibration caused by your ceiling fan when it is working. Even a well-balanced ceiling fan causes vibration when it works.

HEIGHT UNDER BLADES

The minimum recommended distance between the floor and the blades is 230 cm.

You can use a meter to check this height (level of your floor / lower limit of the blades).

PAIRING PROCEDURE REMOTE CONTROL / RECEIVER

By default, the remote control and the receiver are already paired together. If the remoteontrol is not connected to the receiver, please follow the steps below :

  1. Turn off the power of your ceiling fan using the circuit breaker or switch.
  2. Wait at least 30 seconds then turn on the power again.
  3. Within 30 seconds of turning on the power, press and hold the button of the remoteontrol for around 5 seconds

The receiver beeps when the synchronization is complete. You will then be able to use your remote control to control your ceiling fan

PAIR THE REMOTE CONTROL ON SEVERAL CEILING FANS

When several ceiling fans (DC technology with the same remote control) are installed, it’s possible to control all of them with only one single remote control.

Repeat the above procedure PAIRING METHOD REMOTE CONTROL / RECEIVER with all the other ceiling fans that you want to synchronize on the same remote control.

CHANGE THE RUNNING DIRECTION OF THE BLADES (SUMMER / WINTER MODE)

By default your ceiling fan rotates counterclockwise (summer mode). This mode allows the room to be refreshed by sending the cold air down and hot air at the top. The winter mode, meanwhile, will allow you to heat the room by sending hot air down (the blades turn in the opposite direction, clockwise).

To change the running direction of the blades, press and hold the button on your remote control for about 5 seconds.

F forward = S = Summer = counterclockwise rotation
R reverse = W = Winter = clockwise rotation

WIFI AND VOICE CONTROL

Your ceiling fan is compatible with Wifi (SMART LIFE and TUYA apps) and voice control (Amazon Alexa / Google Assistant).

For more information, refer to the corresponding manual.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING : Before cleaning your appliance, carefully read the safety instructions in this manual.

We recommend that you keep your unit clean and clean it at least once a month.

Do not use water or detergent to clean your ceiling fan.

A dry, soft cloth will be preferable to avoid scratching the body of your ceiling fan and the blades. Vacuum dust from inaccessible places.

It is recommended to regularly check the condition of the ceiling fan and ceiling fan hanger bracket (at least twice a year depending on use). Due to frequent use of the ceiling fan, the crews will tend to loosen a little bit over time. Check and tighten the screws of the ceiling bracket, blades, motor cover, LED light kit or cover if necessary.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NOTE : Visit our Frequently Asked Questions section on our website (www.fanelite.com) for more information.

The ceiling fan (motor) starts and then stops after few seconds :

This is a safety mode of the receiver because the blades are not installed. Install the blades before using your ceiling fan.

The light works but not the ceiling fan (motor) :

  1. Check that the 3 wires and metal pins (pink / grey / red) of the corresponding connector are properly engaged in the connector. If a wire is badly inserted in the connector, the receiver reacts by an error code. Push on the wires if necessary to fully engage them in the connector.
  2. The batteries may not be sufficiently charged and allow the light to be turned on / off only, but not the motor. Check the battery status of your remote control. Change the batteries if necessary and your ceiling fan will re-operate normally

The ceiling fan (motor) works but not the light :

  1. Check that the 3 wires and metal pins (yellow / black / white) of the corresponding connector are properly engaged in the connector. If a wire is badly inserted in thnnector, the receiver reacts by an error code. Push on the wires if necessary to fully engage them in the connector.
  2. The batteries may not be sufficiently charged and allow the motor to be turned on / off only, but not the light. Check the battery status of your remote control. Change theaters if necessary and your ceiling fan will re-operate normally.

The ceiling fan no longer works :

  1. Check the batteries status of your remote control. Change the batteries if necessary and your ceiling fan will re-operate normally.
  2. If, despite the changed batteries, your ceiling fan still does not work, check the condition of the circuit breakers. If the ceiling fan circuit breaker is OFF, put it back to ON. If the circuit breaker trips OFF again, do not touch it, leave the power off, and call a qualified electrician.
  3. The remote control and the receiver are maybe unpaired. Refer to the USE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL section to perform the pairing procedure again.
  4. If your receiver beeps several times when you press a button on the remote control, this is an error code and this means that your receiver has locked out. To reset it, turn off the power of your ceiling fan by using the circuit breaker or switch, wait 1 minute and then turn on the power again.
  5. Check your electrical connections. Refer to the ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS section. Check that all metal wires and pins are securely engaged in their connectors. Check that current is coming through your ceiling AC power supply. Check that no electrical wires are damaged.

The ceiling fan oscillates abnormally during operation :

A ceiling fan vibrates naturally when it is working. Even a well-balanced ceiling fan causes vibration when it works.

  1. Check the condition of the screws of the blades and tighten them if necessary.
  2. Check that the hanger ball is securely locked in the hanger bracket (concave groove of hanger ball into the lugs of hanger bracket).
  3. If your ceiling fan still oscillates abnormally when it is working, it may be because the blades are not well balanced. In this case, use the balancing kit supplied with your ceiling fan to re-balance them. To identify the defective blade, turn off your ceiling fan, put the plastic pliers on the edge of a blade and turn on your ceiling fan. Repeat by changing position and blade if necessary until normal operation of the ceiling fan is resumed. Once the correct position is found, glue the weight at the level of the pliers (onto the blade) then remove the pliers.
