MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn’t an existing ETL-listed mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and building materials. The outlet box and its support must be able to fully support the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 lbs). Do not use plastic outlet boxes.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.
NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a sloped (vaulted) ceiling, you may need a longer downrod to maintain proper clearance between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A minimum clearance of 12″ is suggested for optimal operation.
NOTE: Depending on the location you have selected for installation, you may need to purchase and install a “Joist Hanger” for the support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist hanger you purchase has been designed for use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)

HANGING THE FAN

Remember to turn off the power before you begin the installation. This is necessary for your safety and also the proper programming of the control system.
To properly install your ceiling fan, follow the steps below.
Step 1. Pass the 120 Volt supply wires from the ceiling outlet box through the center of the mounting bracket. Securely attach the ceiling mounting plate/bracket to the ceiling outlet box as shown (Fig. 5).
Step 2. Hook the motor body onto the ceiling mounting plate/bracket as shown. You can now proceed with the electrical wiring of your fan (Fig. 6).

INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT

(Required for Canadian installation ONLY)

A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from falling. Please install it as follows:
Step 1. Drive a wood screw and washers into the side of the brace that holds the outlet box. Leave 3mm (1/8”) of space between the support brace and the washer (Fig. 7).
Step 2. Insert the safety cable through the mounting bracket and one of the holes in the outlet box into the ceiling. Adjust the length of the safety cable to reach the screw and washers by pulling the extra cable through the cable clamp until the overall length is correct. Put the end of the cable back through the cable clamp, forming a loop at the end of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp securely. Now, put the loop at the end of the safety cable over the wood screw and under the washer.
Tighten the wood screw securely (Fig. 8)
NOTE: Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations only, it’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.

ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS

WARNING: To avoid possible electric shock, be sure you have turned off the power at the main circuit panel before wiring.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household wiring. Use the wire connecting nuts supplied with your fan. Secure the connectors with electrical tape. Make sure there are no loose wire strands or connections.
WARNING: If your house wires are different colors than those referenced in this manual, stop immediately. A professional electrician is recommended to determine proper wiring.
NOTE: The control system is equipped with 16 code combinations to prevent possible interference from or to other remote units. The frequency switches on your transmitter and receiver have been preset at the factory.
Please recheck to make sure the switches on the transmitter and receiver are set to the same positions. Any combination of switch settings will operate the fan as long as the switches on the transmitter and receiver are set to the same positions (Fig. 9).
Changing the order of switches on each switch block changes the operational frequency.
Step 1. Motor to Receiver Electrical Connections: Connect the black wire from the fan to the black wire marked “TO MOTOR L” on the receiver. Connect the white wire from the fan to the white wire marked “TO MOTOR N” on the receiver. Connect the blue wire from the fan to the blue wire marked “FOR LIGHT” on the receiver. Secure all the wire connections with the plastic wire nuts provided (Fig. 10).
Step 2. Receiver to House Supply Wires Electrical Connections: Connect the black (hot) wire from the ceiling to the black wire marked “AC in L” from the receiver. Connect the white(neutral) wire from the ceiling to the white wire marked “AC in N” from the
Receiver. Secure the wire connections with the plastic wire nuts provided (Fig. 10).
Step 3. If your outlet box has a ground wire (green or bare copper) connect it to the fan ground wires: Secure the wire connection with a plastic nut provided. Place the receiver into the motor housing. 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 (Fig. 10).
NOTE: Carefully tuck the wire connections up into the outlet box.
NOTE: The fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 30 feet from the remote transmitter for optimal signal transmission between the transmitter and the fan’s receiving unit.

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

Step 1. Remove the 3 small screws from the motor assembly for later use. Lift the motor housing onto the ceiling mounting plate/bracket, aligning the 3 holes from both parts.
Secure the motor housing to the motor bracket by using the 3 small screws removed previously (Fig. 11).
Step 2. Insert the blade through the slots on the flywheel and attach it to the motor hub using the blade screws and blade trim. Make sure the screws securing the blades to the motor hub are tightened and are properly seated (Fig. 12).
Step 3. Remove one of the three screws in the adapter plate at the bottom of the motor assembly and retain the screw for later use. Slightly loosen the remaining two screws. Place the motor connector through the center hole of the switch housing. Engage the switch housing 9-pin connector with the motor connector. The two connectors have keyholes that must be mated correctly before they can be engaged. Rotate the switch housing keyhole slots clockwise to engage both loosened screws. Reinstall the previously removed screw. Secure the switch housing to the adapter plate by tightening the three screws (Fig. 13).
Step 4. Remove one of the three screws in the switch housing. Slightly loosen the remaining two screws (Fig. 14).
Step 5. If installing the light kit, skip to step 7. Assemble the light kit wire cover to the switch housing using the two key slots. Replace the removed screw and secure all the three screws (Fig. 15a).
Step 6. Assemble the steel cap to the switch housing by twisting in a clockwise direction (Fig. 15b).
Step 7. For use with the light kit: Connect the 2 single-pin connectors from the switch housing to the 2 single-pin connectors from the LED assembly.
Assemble the LED assembly to the switch housing using the two key slots. Replace the third screw removed in step 4 and securely tighten all three screws (Fig. 16a)
Step 8. Secure the glass shade to switch housing by twisting in a clockwise direction. Do not over-tighten (Fig. 16b).

INSTALLING THE TRANSMITTER

All wiring must be under the National Electrical Code and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
Select a location to install your wall mount control system transmitter. You can replace an existing wall switch, or install the transmitter to a new outlet box.
NOTE: Make sure the electrical power is TURNED OFF at the main panel before continuing.
NOTE: SWITCH INSTALLATION MUST COMPLY WITH ALL LOCAL AND NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE.
Step 1. Remove the existing wall plate and the old switch from the wall outlet box. Wire nut the BLACK leads (hot) together and push back inside the outlet box (Fig. 17) or select the desired location with a new wall outlet box.
Step 2. Use the screws provided to secure the wall transmitter to the outlet box (Fig. 18).

CONTROL SYSTEM SET-UP

NOTE: Make sure the power is completely disconnected before you begin this procedure.
Read all steps before proceeding. Each step must be followed exactly to properly program the control system.
Step 1. Use a small flat screwdriver at the top or bottom of the switch plate to gently pry apart the switch plate from the wall switch. Install the 12-volt battery included with the wall mount control system and make sure it is seated correctly.
Replace the switch plate (Fig. 19).
Step 2. Test the transmitter by pressing and releasing ANY button. A RED light should illuminate. If not, check to make sure the battery is inserted and seated correctly (Fig. 19).
NOTE: To prevent damage to the transmitter, remove the battery if not used for long periods (months).
Step 3. You can leave the frequency switches at the factory setting.
However, if you are using more than one fan in the same area and want to control them separately, you will need to change the dip switch settings in the remote.
Remove the battery and change the dip switch settings, assuring that they are different from the other fans. Reinstall the battery and switch plate on the control (Fig. 20).
