Troubleshooting
The fan doesn’t work
- Press a fan speed button (up or down arrow.
- Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on.
- Check the wall control battery.
- Make sure the blades spin freely.
- Turn off the power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram.
Excessive wobbling
- Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is properly seated.
- Use the provided balancing kit and instructions to balance the fan.
The fan keeps spinning after the power is turned off
The blades may take a few minutes to come to a complete stop. The powerful
Casablanca motor combined with the unique blade design on this fan allows for
great air movement, but this may cause the blades to keep spinning for longer
than expected after power is turned off.
Remote does not work
- Make sure the battery is installed correctly.
- Install a new battery.
- If the remote still does not work, you may need to pair your remote. To prevent faulty operation, please disconnect power (at the wall switch, breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing. To pair: cycle power
to the fan by turning the power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan and Light button for four seconds to pair the remote. If applicable, the fan will turn on and the lights will flash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.
LED lights will not dim
To enable dimming, you must first set your remote to Dimming Mode. To toggle
Dimming Mode on or off, long press the up and down buttons together.

Installing Multiple Fans with Independently Operating Remote Controls
- To install multiple fans with independently operating remote controls, there is no need to perform any pairing procedures. Each set of receivers/transmitters is already paired. Simply install each receiver into a fan and use the appropriate transmitter to operate each fan.
- If your remote is not working, see the “Remote does not work” section on the previous page.
Installing Multiple Fans Operating on a Single Remote Control
- To have multiple fans operated by a single remote control, you must pair the transmitter to each additional receiver. The receiver that shipped with your fan is already paired with the transmitter.
- Note: To prevent faulty operation, you MUST disconnect power (at the wall switch, breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing each fan.
- For each additional fan, ensure that a compatible receiver is installed. Disconnect power from all other fans while pairing. To pair: cycle power to the fan by turning the power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan and Light button for four seconds to pair/unpair the remote. If applicable, the fan will turn on and the lights will flash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.
Installing One Fan Operating on Multiple Remote Controls
- To have multiple remote controls operate one fan, you must pair each additional transmitter to the receiver in the fan. The transmitter that shipped with your fan is already paired.
- Note: To prevent faulty operation, please disconnect power (at the wall switch, breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing.
- For each additional transmitter, cycle power to the fan by turning the power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan and Light button for four seconds to pair the remote. If applicable, the fan will turn on and the lights will flash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.
“unpairing” Procedure for Faulty Operation of Remote Controls
- If a transmitter is mistakenly operating a fan, you need to “unpair” the transmitter from that fan’s receiver. The “unpairing” procedure is the same as the pairing procedure.
- Note: To prevent faulty operation, you MUST disconnect power (at the wall switch, breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while “unpairing” a fan.
- Disconnect power from all other fans while “unpairing.” Then, cycle power to the fan you wish to “unpair” by turning the power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan and Light button button for four seconds to “unpair” the remote. If applicable, the fan will turn off and the lights will flash and turn off to indicate successful “unpairing.
