INSTALLING THE MOUNTING BRACKET

If there isn’t an existing outlet box, then install one using the following instructions:

• Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off the circuit breakers.
• Secure the outlet box (A) (not included) directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and materials (not included). The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs). Do not use a plastic outlet box.
• Figures below show three different ways to mount the outlet box (A) (not included).

This fan hanging system supports a maximum 20 degree angled ceiling installation. Fig. 4

NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling.
NOTE: The ceiling fan must be installed in a location so that the blades are spaced 300mm from the tip of the blade to the nearest objects or walls.
NOTE: For angled ceiling installation, the opening of the mounting bracket (B) must be pointed toward the peak.

To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar (C) as shown in Fig.5. Make sure the hanger bar you purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans.

INSTALLING THE FAN

Installing the down rod

1. Feed the down rod (5) through the canopy (4) and the bolt and pin cover (6).
2. Remove the ball joint (2) by loosening the set screw (3), insert the motor wires through the down rod then secure the ball joint back to the down rod.
3. Insert the down rod to the coupling (7), line up the coupling holes with the down rod holes, and insert the bolt (8). Then insert the pin (9) to the end of the bolt.
4. Finally secure the down rod and coupling by tightening the two set screws (10) on the coupling. Fig. 6

HANGING THE FAN

Pass the power supply wires (C) from the ceiling outlet box (B) through the center of the ceiling mounting bracket (D). Install the ceiling mounting bracket (D) on the outlet box (B) with the mounting screws (F) provided with the outlet box and washers (E) provided with fan. Fig. 7

Lift the fan assembly onto the mounting bracket. Ensure the registration slot (A) of the hanger ball is positioned on the stopper (B) of the mounting bracket (C) to prevent the fan from rotating when in operation. Fig.8

6. Connect the receiver output wire (blue, FOR LIGHT) to fan light live input wire (blue, FOR LIGHT)
7. After connecting the wires, spread them apart so that the green and white wires are on one side of the outlet box and the black and blue wires are on the other side.
8. Turn the connecting nuts upward and push the wiring into the outlet box.

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

Slide and align the canopy up to the mounting bracket. Ensure all electrical wiring is tucked inside the canopy and that the wires are not damaged during this step. Secure the canopy to the hanger bracket using the screws provided.

USING YOUR CEILING FAN

SETTING DIP SWITCHES
When two or more fans are located near each other, you may desire to have the receiver/transmitter for each fan set to a different code, so that the operation of one fan does not affect the operation of the others. The DIP switches for the receiver are located on the flat surface of the receiver.
The DIP switches for the transmitter are in the battery compartment. Fig. 13.

NOTE: Ensure that the power to the supply wires has been turned off before setting the code.

Change the position of the DIP switches in the remote transmitter and the receiver. Make sure that the DIP switches match in the remote receiver and transmitter. If they don’t match, the transmitter will not function. Fig. 14

INSTALLING THE REMOTE BATTERY
2 x AAA 1.5V (size) batteries are required to operate the remote control. Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote and insert 2 x AAA batteries. Ensure the polarities are correct as shown in the battery compartment. (Batteries included.)

OPERATING THE REMOTE:
Before you start using the remote, take the time to read through this section and get familiar with the buttons and function of each button.

Fig. 15

LED Indicator
The red LED indicator on the top of the transmitter will flash when the buttons are active.

BUTTONS ON THE REMOTE
HI: Press the button to set fan running at High speed.
MED: Press the button to set fan running at Medium speed.
LOW: Press the button to set fan running at Low speed.
OFF: Press the button to turn OFF the fan.

LIGHT CONTROL BUTTON:

D / ON SWITCH：
This switch marked D/ON controls the dimming function of the lights. If using non-dimmable bulbs, use a ballpoint pen or small screwdriver to set the switch to “D” to disable the dimming function. If using dimmable halogen bulbs, set the switch to “ON” to enable the dimming function. Fig. 16

Fig. 16

The remote has memory function. If the fan or light is turned off by the isolating switch, it will memorise and recover the last status when turned on next.

INSTALLING THE TRANSMITTER HOLDER
Install the holder to the wall with two screws provided, hang up the transmitter by the holder.

AFTER INSTALLATION

WOBBLE:
NOTE: ceiling fans tend to move during operation due to the fact that they are mounted on a rubber grommet. If the fan was mounted rigidly to the ceiling it would cause excessive vibration. Movement of a few centimeters is quite acceptable and DOES NOT suggest any problem.
TO REDUCE THE FAN WOBBLE: Please check that all screws which fix the mounting bracket and down rod are secure.
BALANCING A WOBBLING CEILING FAN:

For your convenience, a Balancing Kit is included; please follow this procedure when balancing the fan:

1. Install the fan without the light kit before balancing the fan.
2. Define the base plate into four areas (point A, B, C and D). Use one weight from the balance kit to lightly stick on the edge of the base plate (point A), if the wobble worsens, then take off the balance kit and lightly stick it on the opposite side (point C); if the wobble is worse, then go to the adjacent point B or D, if the wobble gets lessens, then securely stick on the weight at this location on the base plate.
3. After balancing the fan, assemble the light kit to the light base.

NOISE:
When it is quiet (especially at night) you may hear occasional small noises. Slight power fluctuations and frequency signals superimposed in the electricity for off-peak hot water control may cause a change in fan motor noise. This is normal. Please allow a 24-hour “breaking -in” period, most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time. All electric motors are audible to some extent. Please note that this is not a product fault, and as such is not covered under warranty.

CARE AND CLEANING

1. Periodic cleaning of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required. Use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the paint finish. Please turn OFF electricity power when you do so.
2. Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the blades and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
3. The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing so there is no need for oil.
   NOTE: Always turn OFF the power before attempting to clean your fan.
