NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling.

To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar as shown in Figure 4 (available at your Progress Lighting Retailer).

Attaching the Fan Blades

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the steps below to hang your fan properly:

Step 1. Remove the metal washer and fan housing from the fan motor by removing the six screws from the rim of collar. (Fig. 5)

Step 2. Attach the blade holder to the blades using the screws provided. Repeat process with other blades. (Fig. 6)

Step 3. Fasten the blade assembly to the fan motor using the blade screws supplied. Tighten each screw and make sure the blade is straight. (Fig. 7)

Step 4. Replace the metal washer and fan housing to the fan motor by using the screws previously removed. (Fig. 8)

Hanging the Fan

Before touching a screw driver thoroughly read these instructions.

WARNING/CAUTION: Before installing fan, turn off power at service panel and check all visible screws and bolts for tightness.

Step 1. Remove the decorative canopy bottom cover from the canopy by turning the cover counter clockwise. (Fig. 9)

Step 2. Remove the hanger bracket from the canopy by removing the 1 of 2 screws from the bottom of the hanger bracket and loosening the other one a half turn from the screw head. Next, turn the canopy counter clockwise to removing the hanger bracket from the canopy. (Fig. 9)

Step 3. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet box using screws and washers included with your outlet box . (Fig. 10)

Step 4. Secure the hanger bracket to the ceiling outlet box using screws and washers included with your outlet box. (Fig. 10)

Step 1. Loosen the two set screws and remove the hitch pin and lock pin from the central shaft/top coupling of the motor assembly. Doing so will allow the down rod to enter the central shaft. (Fig. 11)

Step 2. Route wires exiting from the top of the fan motor through the coupling cover, canopy cover and canopy and then through the ball/downrod. (Fig. 11)

Step 3. Align the holes at the bottom of the downrod with the holes in the collar on top of the motor housing. Carefully insert the hitch pin through the holes in the collar and downrod. Be careful not to jam the pin against the wiring inside the downrod. Insert the lock pin through the hole near the end of the hitch pin until it snaps into its locked position. (Fig. 11)

WARNING/CAUTION: Failure to properly install lock pin as noted in step 7 could result in fan loosening and possibly falling.

Step 4. Tighten two set screws on top of the fan motor firmly and slide the coupling cover down.

Step 5. Now lift the motor assembly (fan with blades) into position and place the hanger ball into the hanger bracket.

Rotate down rod until the “Check Tab” has dropped into the “Registration Slot” and the down rod and ball assembly seat firmly. The down rod and ball assembly should not rotate if this is done correctly. (Fig. 12)

Warning: Make sure tab at bottom of hanger bracket is properly seated in groove of hanger ball before attaching canopy to bracket. Failure to properly seat tab in groove could cause damage to electrical wiring

Make the Electrical Connections

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.

WARNING: Check to see that all connections are tight, including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire nuts, except for the ground wire.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this fan must be installed with an isolating wall control/switch.

NOTE: The fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 20 ft. from the remote control for proper signal transmission between the remote control and the fan’s receiving unit.

If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts with your fan. Secure the plastic wire nuts with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.

Step 1. Connect the fan supply (black) wire to the black household supply wire as shown in Figure 13.

Step 2. Connect the neutral fan (white) wire to the white neutral household wire. (Fig. 13)

Step 3. Connect the fan ground wire (green) to the household ground wire.

Step 4. Check that the two plugs, large and small are making proper contact. One plug is small with only a single wire connection. The second plug is larger and connects multiple colored wires.

Step 5. After all splices are made, check to make sure there are no loose strands. As an additional precaution we suggest to secure the plastic wire connectors to the wires with electrical tape.

Finishing the Installation

Step 1. Tuck connections neatly into ceiling outlet box.

Step 2. Slide the canopy up to hanger bracket and place the key hole on the canopy over the screw on the hanger bracket, turn canopy until it locks in place at the narrow section of the key holes. (Fig. 14)

Step 3. Align the circular hole on canopy with the remaining hole on the hanger bracket, secure by tightening the two set screws. NOTE: Adjust the canopy screws as necessary until the canopy and canopy cover are snug.

Installing the battery

Install a 12V MN21/A23 battery (included) into the remote control. To prevent damage to the remote control, remove the battery if not used for long periods. (Fig. 15)

Operating Your Transmitter

Remote Control Button Definitions: (Fig. 16)

These six buttons are used to set the fan speed as follows:

1. = minimum speed
2. = low speed
3. = medium low speed
4. = medium speed
5. = medium high speed
6. = high speed
   button: Turns the fan off.
   button: Controls fan direction.

Your DC brushless motor is equipped with an automatically learned type remote control. There are no frequency switches on the receiver; the receiver unit will automatically scan the frequency from the remote control if any changes are made. The frequency settings on the transmitter should be changed ONLY in case of interference or if a second or more ceiling fans with the same type of control system are installed in the same structure.

Setting the Remote Control
Follow the below steps to set the remote control: The auto learning function will only mandate within 60 seconds when turning the fan’s AC power ON.

From the back of the transmitter, with the fan’s power off, restore power to the fan. Press and hold “SET” button for about 5 seconds and release. If optional light kit is installed, the light kit will flash twice and the signal light on the hand held transmitter will come on when the button is pressed. The fan has completed the pairing process with the remote control and is ready for use. (Fig. 17)

Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as the room size. Ceiling height, number of fans and so on.

NOTE: To operate the reverse function on this fan, press the reverse button while the fan is running.

Warm weather – (Forward) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Fig. 18. This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool weather – (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown in Fig. 19. This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

Installing the Remote Control Holder

Step 1. Remove the remote control holder cover from the remote control holder.

Step 2. Attach the remote control holder with the two remote control holder mounting screw provided. (Fig. 20)

Step 3. Replace the remote control holder cover into remote control holder.

Care of Your Fan

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan.

1. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from ceiling.)
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.

IMPORTANT
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION “MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS”.

Troubleshooting

1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2. Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
   CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

Fan sounds noisy.|

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub is tight.

3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
   CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

4. Allow a 24-hour “breaking-in” period. Most noise associated with a new fan disappear during this time.

5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that light bulb is also secure.

6. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling

Fan has lost its programming repeatedly.|

1. Turn the AC power off to fan, and re-do steps for programming on above.
2. Do not turn off fan from standard wall switch. Use only our wall switch or your remote to regulate fan.
