   Note: Learning mode will not be activated if the power is on for more than 30 seconds.

Troubleshooting Remote Control
If the transmitter and receiver are not working, or not working properly, check:

• The battery is in the correct position and making good contact, and replace batteries if necessary.
• Is there any other radio frequency or remote-controlled devices nearby, devices using the same frequency can interfere with each device?
• Low voltage in the batteries can affect the operation and signal reception. The LED indicator light will flash when the battery is low, replace the battery immediately.

Note: If not using the fan and remote for extended periods, remove the battery from the transmitter.

Reverse Function

Your ceiling fan can operate either in fan mode or reverse fan mode.
Summer (Forward)
For a cooling effect during summer, your fan should run in a counter clockwise direction, forcing the room air down and outwards creating a wind chill effect that makes you feel cooler.
Winter (Reverse)
During the winter, your fan should run in a clockwise direction at low speed. This will gently draw the warmer air down from the ceiling , balancing the rooms temperature, and allowing you to lower your heating thermostat.

Cleaning and Maintenance

All EGLO ceiling fans need be maintained regularly to ensure performance is maintained.
Your fans natural movement can cause screws to loosen. Every 6 months, check that ALL screws are securely tightened with a screwdriver.
All EGLO ventilation products should be cleaned regularly to insure against corrosion from salt, dust and moisture, both externally and internal (where allowed and possible).
For cleaning, a soft brush or lint-free cloth should be used to prevent scratching the finish. Surface smudges or an accumulation of dirt and dust can easily be removed by using a mild detergent and only a slightly dampened cloth.

Note: Do NOT use abrasive cleaning agents as they may damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

WARNING: CEILING FAN MUST BE SWITCHED OFF AND ISOLATED BEFORE COMMENCING ANY TROUBLE SHOOTING

Wobble/Balance
Please note that all ceiling fans are not the same, even fans of the same model, some may move more or less than others. Movement of a few centimetres is quite acceptable, and does not suggest the fan will fall if installed correctly.
All ceiling fan blades are weighed and grouped by weight. It is impossible to eliminate wobble altogether and should not be considered a fault. Ceiling fans tend to move during operation because they are not generally rigidly mounted.
To reduce the fan wobble:

• Check that all screws which fix the mounting bracket and down rod are tightly secured.
• Wobble may result from inconsistent blade level. Check this by measuring from the tip of the blade to the ceiling, and repeat on every blade.

If the measurements are different;

1. Check that the blade screws are not overly tightened, or loose, causing the tip of the blade to be unlevelled.
2. Out of shaped blades can unbalance the fan and cause wobble. Check by removing all blades and stacking on a flat level surface and ensure all blades are a uniform shape.
3. Interchanging adjacent blades can redistribute the weight and result in smoother operation.
