Skyfan SKY903WH Series Ceiling Fan

THANK YOU

Thank you for purchasing this quality Ventair DC ceiling fan. To ensure correct function and safety, please read all instructions before using the product and keep all instructions for future reference.
CAUTION
Read Instructions Carefully For Safe Installation and Fan Operation.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

FOR SAFE USE OF THIS FAN, AN ALL-POLE DISCONNECTION MUST BE INCORPORATED INTO THE FIXED WIRING INACCORDANCE WITH THE WIRING RULES.

As outlined in clause 7.12.2 of AS/NZS 60335-1 for meeting the minimum electrical safety of this standard.
Please note warranty will be void if installation is without an all-pole disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
Example: If a fan is connected to a circuit that can be isolated via an all-pole safety switch at the switchboard, then this is considered to be an all-pole disconnection to the ceiling fan electrical circuit, meeting the requirements of clause 7.12.2 of AS/NZS 60335.1.

A single-pole switch on the active of the receiver input of remote control must also be included in the wiring, and located in the same room as the ceiling fan.(see wiring diagram)

1. The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
2. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
3. The structure to which the fan is to be mounted must be capable of supporting a weight of 20kg.
4. The fixing point on the ceiling, requires a solid bracing structure such as Timber noggins or joists. The bracing should be butted up firmly and securely to the back of any non structural roofing panel such as plaster or Gyprock to ensure safety and optimum performance of the fan.
5. The fan should be mounted so that the blades are at least 2.1 m above the floor.
6. Only a licensed electrician should complete the installation.
7. WARNING: If unusual wobbling or oscillating movement is observed, immediately stop using the ceiling fan and contact the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualified persons.
8. WARNING: Light and fan must be connected to the same phase. Before servicing, ensure both light and fan circuits are disconnected.

Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste, use separate collection facilities. Contact your local government for information regarding the collection systems available. If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the ground water and get into the food chain, damaging your health and well-being.

MOUNTING BRACKET

• The ceiling fan must be installed in a location so that the blades have a minimum 300mm spacing from the tip of the blade to the nearest objects or walls.
• Secure the hanging bracket to the ceiling joist or structure that is capable of carrying a load of at least 20kg, with the two Fixing screws provided. Ensure at least 30mm of the screw is threaded into the support structure.

PLEASE NOTE:
The bracket fixing screws provided are for use with the wooden structures only. These screws are designed specifically for this purpose, and use of other types of screws, ie: Bugle headed screws may void the warranty. For structures other than wood, the appropriate screw type MUST be used.

QUICK ‘CLICK’ BLADE INSTALLATION

BLADE ATTACHMENT

1. Insert the blades (Skyfan x 3, Skyfan 4 x 4) into the blade holding slots on the motor housing, slide downward and click into position’.
2. Insert the 2 safety screws ,being careful not to over-tighten.
3. Move motor housing canopy downward until covering the motor housing.
   

HANGING THE FAN

Lift the fan assembly onto the mounting bracket. Ensure that slot (A) of the hanger ball is fully aligned/engaged with the Tab (8) of the mounting bracket (C) to prevent the fan from rotating when in operation. Fig. 3 )
Secure the safety wire to the ceiling joist or other suitable fixing point.

ANGLED CEILING INSTALLATION

This fan hanging system supports a maximum 15-degree angled installation. ( Fig 4 ) Please note: the Tab (B) on the hanging bracket that sits in the groove (A) on the hanging ball should be positioned at the highest point to ensure correct operation.

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

• Complete the electrical connection at the mounting bracket terminal block.

• Fix the EARTH cable from motor to the mounting bracket.
  NOTE: Skyfan DC is a Class I electrical product. (Refer to Fig 6. ).

• Connect fan to the receiver (can be done before or after sliding receiver into place).
  A. For fan models without light, plug cable marked ‘motor’ into remote control box. See Fig 7.2

B. For fan models with light, plug cable marked ‘motor’ and ‘LED’ into remote control box. See Fig 7.1

• Slide receiver into position in the hanging bracket making sure the AC input connecter on the receiver is aligned with the AC port on the receiver. Refer Fig 7 .1 on page 7

• Slide the canopy upwards into position over the mounting bracket then turn counter clockwise to twist lock into position. Ensure all 4 tabs on the mount bracket are located correctly into the slots on the canopy. Canopy should be sitting approx. -6mm off the ceiling.

• Ensure all wires are tucked neatly into canopy taking care not to cause damage.

IMPORTANT FACTS

Fan Operation:
Skyfan DC has been designed to optimize airflow with minimal amount of energy usage. A ceiling fan rotates much more slowly than traditional style wall, pedestal or desk fans; ceiling fans cool people effectively by introducing slow movement ,with high airflow, into the otherwise still, hot air of a room, creating a natural evaporative cooling effect. Fans never actually cool air, like air-conditioning equipment, but use significantly less power.
Normal Wear and Tear
Over time, moving parts may become slightly loose or worn creating small increases in noise or movement. Fan operation may also be affected by accidental contact by persons or foreign objects. These conditions are not covered under warranty, but a little care and maintenance can reduce or prevent these problems from arising
Night Noise
All electric motors, including fan motors make some noise however, the Skyfan DC fan motor is not susceptible to the noise problems that are commonly experienced with typical Higher wattage, heavier AC type ceiling fan motors. The Skyfan DC Range are one of the quietest fans available and are ideal for all areas of the home especially bedrooms where noise is a crucial consideration.

MAINTENANCE

CARE AND CLEANING:

NOTE: Always turn OFF the power at the mains switch before performing any maintenance or attempting to clean your fan.

• Every 6 months, periodic cleaning of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required. Use a soft brush or lint free damp cloth to avoid scratching or marking the surface. Please turn off electricity power when you do so.
• Do not soak or immerse your ceiling fan in the water or other liquids. It could damage the motor or the blades and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
• Ensure that the fan does not come in contact with any organic solvents or cleaners.
• To clean the fan blade, wipe with only a damp clean cloth with NO organic solvents or cleaners.
• The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing so there is no need to oil.
