We are proud of our work and appreciate the opportunity to supply you with the best ceiling fan available anywhere in the world.
We are here to help!
This Instruction Manual is designed to make installation as simple as

technical sections. If you are unfamiliar or uncomfortable with wiring,
contact a qualified electrician. We also provide telephone support at

Warning
w.1 – To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount
fan directly from building structure and/or an outlet box marked acceptable
for fan support of 70 lbs (31.8 kg) and use the
mounting screws provided with the outlet box. w.2 – To avoid possible
electrical shock, before installing or servicing your fan, disconnect the
power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated
wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off
position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the
service panel.
w.3 – To reduce the risk of electric shock, this fan must be installed with an
isolating wall control/switch. w.4 – To reduce the risk of personal injury, do
not bend the blade brackets when installing the blade brackets, balancing the
blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating
fan blades.
w.5 – Chemical burn hazard. Keep batteries away from children. This remote
contains a lithium button cell battery. If a new or used lithium button/coin
cell battery is swallowed or enters the body,
it can cause severe internal burns and can lead to death in as little as 2
hours. Always completely secure the battery compartment. If the battery
compartment does not close securely, stop using
the product, remove the batteries, and keep it away from children. If you
think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the
body, seek immediate medical attention.
Dispose of cells properly and keep away from children. Even used cells may
cause injury.
w.6 – Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged. Exhausted batteries
are to be removed from the product.

Choosing the Right Installation Location
You probably bought this fan with a location in mind. Let’s check below to make sure it is a good fit
Check the room dimensions:
Check the outlet box:
Checking the Ceiling Angle:
Standard Mounting
If you have a flat ceiling:
Hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod for a Low Profile installation.
If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:
- You will need a longer downrod. (sold separately at HunterFan.com)
- If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. (Sold separately at HunterFan.com)
A little more information on Angled Mounting:
For optimum performance and appearance, a longer downrod should be used with your Hunter ceiling fan when installing on high or angled ceiling. If your ceiling is angled greater than 34° you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. Longer downrods and the Angled Mounting Kit are sold separately at HunterFan.com.
Hunter Pro Ti
Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit:
Fold on the dotted line. Place against edge againts the wall. Slide towards
the ceiling. If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you need an
angled mounting kit.
