Unpack your ceiling fan carefully then remove all parts and components and lay on a cloth or soft surface to avoid damage. Do not lay the motor housing on its side, the housing may get damaged. Before commencing installation, check that all parts are included.

PRODUCT ASSEMBLY

WARNING: All electrical tasks should only be undertaken after disconnection of electricity by removing fuses or turning off the circuit breaker to avoid risk of electric shocks.

ASSEMBLY STEPS:

1. INSTALLATION OF THE MOUNTING BRACKET
   The hanger bracket must be screwed on to a firm flat surface. The structure to which it is installed must be able to withstand ten times the static weight of the fan. In case of installing the ceiling fan to a wooden joist, 2 self- tapping screws provided should be enough to support the ceiling fan. The washers provided must be placed in the following Order:
   screw head > round washer > spring washer > mounting bracket > ceiling.
   1. Concrete ceiling: Drill two holes with an appropriate depth by a drilling bit with diameter 8mm, and insert 1 piece of expansion screw to each hole, then fix the mounting bracket into the expansion screws, and tighten it with the nuts of expansion screws. (Fig 2)
   2. Wooden ceiling: Fix the mounting bracket to the wooden ceiling by 4 pieces wooden screws. The thickness of wooden ceiling must be at least 7cm. (Fig 3)
   NOTE: Do not install mounting bracket on the roof leaking and damp. The ceiling must be able to withstand the weight of 40kgs or more.

2. INSTALLATION OF THE DOWN ROD AND HANGER BALL
   • Unscrew the screw on the down rod’s hanger ball, then loosen the hanger ball. Remove the stop pin from inside the down rod and remove the hanger ball from the rod.
   • Remove the clevis pin and hairpin clip from the down rod. If you prefer using the longer down rod, install the hanger ball on it and make sure to move the earth wire from one to the other. Pass the electrical supply leads from the top of the motor all the way through the down rod until they come out the other end.
   • Insert the down rod into the motor housing’s hole and turn it in order to align the holes on both sides with the holes on the down rod.
   • Pass the clevis pin through the holes so that it passes through the down rod too, be careful not to damage any of the wires. Pass the hairpin clip through the clevis pin so that it is securely fixed.
   • Tighten all the screws set up to the moment. This will ensure minimum rod and fan tumbling.
   • If screws are not properly tightened, the motor might oscillate. This could be dangerous.
   • Once the above steps are all finished, install the hanger ball onto the down rod, insert the stop pin in the down rod and lift up the hanger ball. Then, tighten all the screws firmly so that all the elements are completely and securely fixed.

3. HANGING THE FAN TO THE MOUNTING BRACKET AND ATTACHING THE BLADES
   • Lift the fan up to the mounting bracket, insert the hanger ball in the mounting bracket through the opening and carefully let it rest.
   • Rotate the ball and make sure that the tab located in the mounting bracket is aligned with the hanging ball’s slot.
   • When aligned, the fan will automatically sit on its correct position. This will prevent rotation of the rod and fan when the unit is operating.
   

4. REMOTE CONTROL AND WIRING INSTRUCTION
   • Place the receiver through the hanging bracket and connect the wires following the colour codes.
   • Connect the push connectors from the fan to the remote control as stated below:
   Connect electrical wires accurately according to the diagram. (Fig 9) Connect AC: 200-240V main power (dwelling) to the receiver for Remote Control and connect the wires following. Insert the quick A and quick plug B, quick plug C and quick plug D
   WARNING
   To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
   

5. BLADE ASSEMBLY
   Install the fan blades and blade decorative plate by aligning the holes on the blade and plate with the holes on the fan motor assembly set by the provided set screws. (Fig 10)
   Make sure the set screws securing the blade are tight and the blades are properly seated.

6. INSTALL THE FACING COVER INTO THE MOTOR AXIS (FIG 11)
   

REMOTE CONTROL SETTING AND OPERATION

1. Restore electrical to the outlet box by turning the electricity on at the main fuse box.
2. Remove the battery cover from the remote control transmitter, install the battery, and replace the cover.

Note:

1. Use 1 12V battery to replace battery.
2. If not using for long periods of time, remove the battery to prevent damage to the remote transmitter, and store the remote transmitter away from excess heat or humidity.
3. The buttons on the remote control transmitter control the fan speed and light as follows.

WARNING:

• Always ensure the battery compartment cover is closed properly.
• Never leave the remote control directly exposed to sun light.
• Do not try recharging the discharged batteries by heating them or with a battery charger. Rechargeable batteries are always specified as so.
• Do not throw batteries into the fire, it could cause explosion.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Always disconnect the fan from the power supply and allow it to stop before cleaning it.
2. Clean the outside surface with a soft damp cloth.

WARNING:

• Make sure the power is turned off at the main fuse or circuit panel before you attempt any repairs.
• Do not immerse then fan in water.
• Never use scouring pads, abrasive or chemical cleaners.
• Clean your fan periodically. Use only a cloth or brush. Metal finishes are finished with a lacquer to prevent tarnishing.
• Do not allow the product’s inside parts to get wet (especially the circuit plate), this could be very dangerous and damage the fan.
• While the product is not in use, make sure it is unplugged from the power supply. To store it, place it in its original box and save it in a fresh and dry place until it is used again.
• In case of fault or doubt, do not try to repair the fan by yourself to avoid risk of fire or electric shock.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE FAN DOES NOT START UP

1. Check all the fuses or circuit breakers.
2. Turn off the electrical power and check all wire connections.

THE FAN EMITS NOISES

1. Always allow a few days “break in” time for any new fan at medium or high speed. Try to diagnose the exact location of the noise by listening carefully from several sides (blades, motor, light kit, etc.) The fan noise can come from a light kit.
2. Make sure all screws in the fan assembly and light kit are tight and properly threaded. If not, then turn off the power and tighten the screws. Tighten these screws at least once a year because they may loosen slowly over time and cause a clicking noise.
3. Make sure the light kit is securely fastened to the fan, and all glass screws are finger tightened only. Do not tighten with pliers or a screw driver.
4. Make sure the mounting bracket is installed snugly to the junction box.
5. Make sure wire nuts in the switch housing or the canopy are not rattling against each other or against the housing’s wall. Wrap with electrical tape if necessary.
6. Make sure the canopy is not touching the ceiling.
7. Assure that the screws fastening the blade holders to the motor are tight and the lock washers provided for that purpose have been used.

THE FAN DOES NOT PRODUCE MUCH AIR

1. The fan may be running in reverse, so air is directed upward.
2. The room may contain items that obstruct the airflow.
3. The fan may be too small for the size of the room.

FAN WOBBLING
NOTE: A small amount of wobble is considered acceptable and should not be considered a defect.

1. Make sure the mounting bracket is fixed tightly to the ceiling with no movement at all. Tighten screws if necessary.
2. Make sure all screws holding the blades to the blade support and blade support to motor are tight. Make sure the light kit and the glass screws are tight.
