supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. 4. Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance. 5. All electrical works must only be

HOW TO CHOOSE A PROPER LOCATION FOR CEILING FAN
1. According to regulations and to provide a safe clearance from the floor,
the lowest point on the fan blade must be at least 2.1 metres (7 feet) from
the floor. 2. For fan installed enclosed outdoors, the fan must be installed
at least 1.5m from the perimeter of roof/eaves of the enclosure to protect the
product from direct or indirect rain water or sunlight. 3. The chosen location
for the fan must not allow the rotating blades to come into contact with any
object. 4. Please check carefully and make sure that ceiling joists are strong
enough and of adequate size to support the weight of about 35 kg. 5. To reduce
the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, please make sure that
the fan mounting bracket is directly supported from the building structure. Do
not mount to an outlet box. 6. The mounting bracket must be firmly screwed to
a load bearing building structure e.g. a concrete ceiling, steel structure, or
a timber frame. If additional timber frames are to be added, those must be
securely nailed or screwed between the beams. 7. Attach fan blades after the
fan motor housing is installed and properly secured. Keep the fan motor and
blades in the original package until it is ready to be installed. SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS 8. Check and confirm, after the fan is completely installed, that
all connections are proper and secure to prevent the fan from falling or
causing property damages or personal injury. 9. Take care not to bend or
damage the motor Drive Shaft or Fan Blades when handling or installing them.
If such defect is noticed, please contact the Customer Service before
installation of the ceiling fan. 10. Fan and hanging (mounting) bracket must
be earthed. 11. Use of an unapproved remote controller voids the warranty.
Only Mercator remote controllers are approved for use with Mercator ceiling
fans. Do not use solid state controllers. 12. Do not remove the fan from the
ceiling after installation. 13. Make sure electricity is turned off at the
main power box before commencing work. Turn off the power by removing fuse or
turning off circuit breaker before installing the fan and replacing lamps

CODE SWITCH
1. CODE SWITCH: Codes are set by pushing dip switches up or down. It is
imperative that the code used for both transmitter and receiver is exactly the
same, otherwise remote controller will not work. Please note the code switch
will enable you to operate a second remote controller independently. For
example, if you have two ceiling fans with 2 remote control units, set 2
different codes for each set of transmitter/receivers. This means you can
operate each ceiling fan independently.
2. Your remote control is ready for use after battery installation(need 12V
battery 1pc).

WARNING: SHUT POWER OFF AT FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER
IMPORTANT FACTS
All electric motors, including fan motors make some noise and may feel hot to
touch – this is not a fault. Ceiling fans tend to move during operation as
they are not generally rigid-mounted. Rigid mounted ceiling fans generate
excessive vibration and stress on their mountings. Movement of a couple of
centimetres is quite normal and does not suggest the fan will fall down.
Please note – all ceiling fans are not the same, even in the same model some
may move more or less than others. Fan lights can rattle, if they are not
supplied with the fan. They are not covered by warranty.
FAN OPERATION A ceiling fan is an environmentally smart choice when it comes
to cooling as well as helping to warm your room. You should see a reduction in
both cooling and heating costs by regular use of your fans. Do not hesitate to
use your fans in both summer and winter months.
In summer fans should be set to spin in anti clockwise direction blowing down
cool breeze.
In winter, fan should be set to spin in clock wise direction so that an upward
airflow will push warm air off the ceiling and circulate it downwards into the
living areas. In winter months use the fan on a lower speed than in summer.
NORMAL WEAR AND TEARt Threaded components working slightly loose, or blade
carriers becoming slightly bent due to vigorous cleaning or bumping can cause
extra wobble and noise. This is not covered under warranty, but a little care
and maintenance can reduce or prevent this problem.
NIGHT NOISES This is the biggest cause of service calls, which are outside the
manufacturer’s warranty. If a fan has a fault it will be noticeable at all
times. Naturally when everything is quiet at night you will be more inclined
to hear small noises, which may not be noticeable at other times. Even slight
signals super imposed in your electricity supply for off peak hot water
control may cause a change in the fan motor noise. This is normal.
