Remote Control Procedures

1. Preset Memory Feature
   Your Receiver is equipped with a preset memory feature. If the AC supply to the Receiver is powered through a wall switch, when the switch is turned OFF, the Control will remember the Light Intensity and Fan Speed.
   When the Switch is turned back ON the Light and Fan will resume operation as they were prior to the Switch being turned OFF.

2. The Remote Control Transmitter is powered by One CR2032 Lithium Battery (included).
   Removal of Cover:
   Remove and Retain the Battery Cover Phillips Head Screw (Figure 32).
   Press down and pull back on the Remote Control Battery Cover Lip (Figure 32).
   Install one new CR2032 Lithium Battery into the Battery Compartment following the correct Battery placement printed on the Compartment (Figure 32).
   NOTE : Dispose of cell batteries properly and keep away from children. Even used cell batteries may cause injury. WARNING
   Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries away from children. Always completely secure the battery compartment. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product, remove the batteries, and keep it away from children. This remote contains a lithium button/coin cell battery. If a new or used lithium button/coin cell battery is swallowed or enters the body, it can cause severe internal burns and can lead to death in as little as 2 hours. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention. Dispose of cell batteries properly and keep away from children. Even used cell batteries may cause injury.

   The Fan’s LED Light will Flash Twice at 5 Seconds and Twice again at 10 Seconds.
   The Memory is now Cleared and a Transmitter will need to be Paired as described previously.
   NOTE : Clearing the receiver’s memory of paired remote controls will return the receiver to factory settings, allowing all remotes to operate your fan. Pairing at least one remote will lock out all unwanted remotes.

5. FAN POWER OFF Button
   The Remote Control FAN POWER OFF Button ( turns the Ceiling Fan Power OFF (Figure 35).
   NOTE : The Air Flow, Speed Control, Auto Timer and Light Power are all controlled from their own Buttons.

Maintenance

IMPORTANT CARE INSTRUCTIONS
for your Ceiling Fan
Periodic cleaning of your new ceiling fan is the only maintenance that is needed.
When cleaning, use only a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the finish.
Abrasive cleaning agents are not required and should be avoided to prevent damage to finish.

WARNING
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.

Energy-Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans

Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely heavily on the proper installation and use of the ceiling fan. Here are a few tips to ensure quality and product performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location. Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the middle of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor and 18 inches from the walls . If ceiling height allows, install the fan 8 – 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow Consult your Brands Retailer for . optional mounting accessories.
Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summer, use the ceiling fan in the counter-clockwise direction. The airflow produced by the ceiling fan creates a wind-chill effect, making you “feel” cooler. Select a fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze, lower speeds consume less energy. In the winter, reverse the motor and operate the ceiling fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling down into the occupied space. Remember to adjust your thermostat when using your ceiling fan – additional energy and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!
Turn Off When Not in the Room. Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If the room is unoccupied, turn off the ceiling fan to save energy.
