ASSEMBLY

Preparing for installation

Getting ready

• Unpack and inspect carefully to make sure all parts are included and not damaged (see Fig.1). Lay all pieces out in the working space.
• Turn off power at the fuse box or circuit breaker to avoid possible electrical shock (see Fig.2).

Choosing a location for the ceiling fan

• For effective air circulation, fans should be located in the center of the room, or a minimum of  32″(81.3 cm) from adjacent walls or obstructions.

• Choose a location where there is a high enough ceiling clearance (at least 2.1 m (6’11”) from the floor
  to the ceiling fan’s slowest moving part).

•  Ensure that the outlet box in the room’s ceiling can support the weight of the fan. Typically, if the outlet box is marked acceptable for fan support, it can hold the fan securely.

Mounting options
Drop-mount (for normal ceilings)

• This method is preferred if the ceiling is sloped or vaulted,or if the ceiling is extra high, requiring the need  of a download (see Fig. 3).

Installation
1. Mounting bracket

Note: The mounting bracket depicted will vary depending on the model.

•  Remove the four sets of side screws from the mounting bracket and save them for future use.
  Wooden ceiling

• Drill two mounting holes in the ceiling joist. Securely attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling or wooden ceiling as indicated below (fig. 4a).
  Normal masonry ceiling

• Securely attach the mounting bracket to an outlet box marked “ Acceptable for Fan Support”, using the supplied outlet box screws with lock washers (see Fig. 4b).

2. Drop-mount
Note: Canopy pictures may vary from product for some styles of ceiling fans.
Downrod assembly
Loosen the two downrod set screws and remove the clip and connection pin from the downrod coupling.  Insert the downrod through the canopy and flange cover, pull lead wires through downrod (see Fig. 5).

Securing assembly
Insert downrod into downrod coupling. Make sure to align holes in downrod with the hole in the coupling. Insert the clip into the connection pin until it snaps into place. Tighten the screws in the downrod coupling
(see Fig. 6).

3. Hands-free wiring

• Carefully lift the fan assembly onto the mounting bracket.
• Rotate the fan until the notch (b) on the aluminum ball fits against the ridge (a) on the mounting bracket  (see Fig. 7).
• With the mounting bracket holding the fan assembly, follow wiring instructions (step 4).

NOTE: For added security, attach safety cable from fan unit to “J” hook in outlet box. Secure by looping zip tie through safety cable and “J” hook. Tighten zip tie securely.

4. Wiring instructions

IMPORTANT: If you are not sure if the electrical outlet box and fan are grounded, contact a licensed electrician for advice. They must be grounded for safe operation.

WARNING: To avoid possible electric shock, be electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.

Remote and Receiver Pairing
Codes are set by pushing the location of the dip switches located on the transmitter and receiver up or down. It is important that the code used for both the remote and receiver are identical for the two devices to be able to communicate; otherwise the remote will not be able to control the fan.

If you plan to install more than one fan then each fan will require the remote and receiver to
use a unique code, or else one remote will be able to control more than one fan.

Installing Receiver Assembly
Once the connection has been made, the receiver inserts into the drop rod hanging bracket. The canopy comes up to cover the receiver and bracket.

Between fan and receiver:

1. Connect the black wire marked “L” from the fan to the black wire marked “TO MOTOR L” from the receiver.

2. Connect the blue wire marked “FOR LIGHT” from the fan to the blue wire marked “FOR LIGHT” from the receiver.

3. Connect the white wire marked ” N” from the fan to the white wire marked “TO MOTOR N” from the receiver
   Between receiver and mains:

4. Connect the black live wire marked “AC IN L” from the receiver to the live wire (typically black) from the outlet box.

5. Connect the white neutral wire marked “AC IN N” from the receiver to the neutral wire (typically white) from the outlet box.

6. Connect the green ground wire marked from the mounting bracket and hanger ball to the ground wire (bare or green) from the outlet box.

• When wires are matched up, connect them by twisting frayed ends together (see Fig. 8a).
• Screw wire connectors (3 are provided) onto the tops of the twisted wires (see Fig. 8b).
• Fasten them with electrical tape (see Fig. 8c).

WARNING: Be sure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after making connections. Place green and white connections on the opposite sides of box from the black and blue (if applicable) connections.

5. Attach the assembly to the mounting bracket

• Unhook the assembly from the mounting bracket.
• Hold the assembly by the canopy and raise up to align the two holes in the canopy with the holes in the mounting bracket.
•  Tighten the loosened screws. Now re-secure the screws and washers which were removed(see Fig. 9).

6. Blade and blade bracket
Using the fan blade screws and washers, attach the fan blades . (see Fig.10)
Note: This ceiling fan includes 5 dual-finished blades. Depending on personal preference, choose the side that  best suits the decor or furniture of your room.

•  If there are plastic tabs shaped like bottle caps, remove and discard them. These are stabilizers that protect the motor during shipping. (see Fig. 11a).
• Remove blade bracket screws on the bottom of the motor and use them to attach the blade assembly to the motor. Ensure the screws are tightened (see Fig. 11b).
• Remove and retain 3 screws from switch housing. Remove plastic button in center of switch housing cap.  Thread light kit assembly onto switch housing cap. Tighten securely with lock washer and hex nut. (see  Fig. 12a).
• Connect the wire inside the switch housing cap by snapping the male and female connectors together.  Match white wires together and blue wire to black wire together. Screw on light kit assembly and switch housing with 3 screws previously removed. (see Fig. 12b)
• Install 2X7W LED bulbs (included). Install light kit glass to the light kit assembly with a rubber washer, flat washer, and hex nut. DO NOT overtighten. Install cap and screw finial onto the light kit assembly. (see Fig. 13).

IMPORTANT NOTE: To be compliant with mandatory energy-saving regulations, your fan has a built-in wattage limiter. The limiter limits the wattage of the light kit to 70 Watts. If you replace bulbs that exceed 70  Watts, then your light will not work. To prevent this, ensure bulbs’ wattage is always less than 70 Watts.

OPERATION

Install the 9V battery (included). To prevent damage to the transmitter remove the battery if not used for long periods.

Restore power to ceiling fan and test for proper operation. The fan remote control controls the fan setting: OFF: Turn off the ceiling fan.
HI: Turn on the fan at high speed.
MED: Turn on the fan at medium speed.
LOW: Turn on the fan at low speed.
LIGHT: ON/OFF: Press and release immediately to turn on or off the light.
DIMMER: Press and hold to dim or brighten lights to the desired level and release. Forward and reverse direction function
This ceiling fan is equipped with a reverse switch for downward or upward airflow. Eia
NOTE: Do not change the direction of rotation while the fan blades are in motion.To change direction, turn off the fan and wait for the blades to stop rotating before setting the switch to the desired rotation direction, either forward or reverse.

Forward function
On this setting, the fan will turn counter-clockwise to create a cooling effect. Use this function during warmer weather to circulate the hot air away from your living space (see Fig.14).

Reverse function

In this setting, the fan will turn clockwise. Use this function during cooler weather to re-circulate warm air (see Fig.15).

MAINTENANCE

•  Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure.
• There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.

CARE AND CLEANING

• Dust your fan periodically with a soft,dry cloth. Do not use harsh cleaners or materials as they may
  damage the unit.

• To prevent bending the blades during cleaning, support the blades so that no pressure is applied to
  them.

Caution!
Do not allow water to come in contact with fan blades or the ceiling fan. Doing so will create fire and/or shock hazards, damaging property.
