Remote Controller Operation
Remove the battery cover from the remote control transmitter and install
batteries. Replace the cover. This remote uses 2 1.5V/AAA batteries.
Note: If not using for long periods, remove the batteries to prevent
damage to the remote controller, and store the remote controller away from
excess heat or humidity. The batteries will weaken with age and should be
replaced before they leak or corrode as this will damage the controller.
Dispose of the used batteries properly. Always keep batteries out of the reach
of children.
Universal Mode and Learning Mode
Your remote controller has two options: “Universal Mode” (mark “0”) and
“Learning Mode” (mark “1”). If choosing “Universal Mode,” simply move the
switch to the LOWER position (mark “0”). Your fan with the remote controller
is ready to use.
Note: If using Universal Mode, your fan can be controlled with other
remote controllers with the same setting. To control the fan with a specific
remote controller, choose “Learning Mode” by moving the switch to the UPPER
position (mark “1”) and then follow the Learn Mode steps below.
Learn Mode
Important: Turn the power on for ONLY the specific fan you wish to pair with
the remote controller. Make sure to turn the power off for all other fans with
which you use the same remote controller. Restore power to your fan, and press
and hold the “SET” button to pair the transmitter and receiver. You must press
the ‘SET” button within 60 seconds of restoring power to the fan.
Note: The fan will at first operate at minimum speed and the light will
blink (if your fan has a light) after you’ve chosen Learn Mode.
Note: If the power is already on, you must turn the power off and then
back on for the remote control setting.
Note: If you reset the controller to Universal Mode (mark “0”) and later
want to pair the controller again to a specific fan, you have to repeat the
Learn Mode steps.
The remote control buttons control the fan speed as follows:
Fan speed
- 1 = minimum speed 2 = low speed 3 = medium-low speed
- 4 = medium speed 5 = medium-high speed 6 = high speed
This button turns the fan off. Forward/Reverse button: This button is to
control the direction of fan rotation. Press once to change the direction of
the fan rotation. The fan must be running to reverse.
Breeze: Press the Breeze button, and the fan will operate randomly among
minimum, low, and medium-low speeds at intervals of 30 seconds until the
breeze mode is canceled. Breeze mode can be erased by pressing either the
power or speed control buttons.
Note: This remote controller has an auto-resume function. The fan will
maintain the last setting when turned back on, except Breeze mode. Install
Transmitter wall mount cradle with 2 screws provided.
Useful tips
The remote transmitter can be removed by pressing it upward from the lower
half. The remote transmitter can be held on a magnetic metal material by a
magnet built into the transmitter.
The receiver provides the following protective functions:
Lock protection: The DC motor has a built-in safety feature against blade
obstruction during operation. If something obstructs the fan blades, the motor
will stop operation after about 20 seconds of interruption. Please remove
obstacles and reset them by turning the power off, and then turning the power
back on. Over 40W protection: When the receiver detects motor power
consumption that is greater than 40W, the fan RPM will automatically lower to
prevent it from overloading.
User Tips
-
If your fan is operating automatically after installation, it is still using the factory setting. Follow the settings for Learn Mode above to reset.
-
If the fan or light isn’t working, reset power (turn the power off then turn the power back on) and follow the Universal Mode or Learn Mode remote control settings.
Note: Make the learning setting either change from universal mode to learn more or change it back to universal mode from learn mode. -
If two or more fans in the same remote signal range are on the same power supply, they cannot be operated separately by remote control. Use a separate power supply for each fan, such as an individual wall switch, and restrict the power supply to only the fan that you are pairing with its transmitter to use the remote controller.
-
When the fan is turned on to oscillate in either a forward or reverse direction, it may shudder briefly until fully engaged. This is a normal operation for this fan; the shuddering will quickly cease as movement is engaged.
