SAFETY INFORMATION

FCC Compliance Notice

Modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. [The equipment refers to the remote control transmitter and/or LED light kit.]

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

  • Do not discard fan carton or foam inserts. Should this fan need to be returned to the factory for repairs, it must be shipped in its original packaging to ensure proper protection against damage that might exceed the initial cause for return.
  • Make sure all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National Electrical Code and ANSI/NFPA 70-1999. Hire a qualified electrician or consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
  • Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. from the blades to the floor and at least 30 in. from the end of the blades to any obstruction.
  • After you install the fan, make sure all connections are secure to prevent the fan from falling.
  • The net weight of this fan including the light kit is: 15 lbs.

DANGER

When using an existing outlet box, make sure the outlet box is securely attached to the building structure and can support the full weight of the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the fan after installation is complete.

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble any part of the fan, including the blades.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT OF 35 LBS. OR LESS” and use mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.

When mounting fan to a ceiling outlet box, use a METAL octagonal outlet box; do NOT use a plastic outlet box. Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 35 lbs.).

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one 12-gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan. If your house wire is larger than 12-gauge or there is more than one house wire to connect to the corresponding fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use the fan with any solid state speed control device or control fan speed with a full range dimmer switch.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, do not bend the blades when installing them, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between the rotating fan blades.

To reduce the risk of personal injury, use ONLY parts provided with this fan. The use of parts OTHER than those provided with this fan will void the warranty.

Before installation, be sure to shut off electricity at main switch or circuit breaker in order to avoid electrical shock.

CAUTION

Be sure outlet box is properly grounded and that a ground wire (green or bare) is present.

Before beginning installation, carefully check all screws, bolts and nuts on fan motor assembly to ensure that they are secured.

DO NOT tamper with or attempt to repair LED component. The light source is designed for this specific application and should not be serviced by untrained personnel. If any servicing is required, call our customer service department.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. The fan pull chain, located to the right of the reverse switch, has four positions to control fan speed. One pull is HIGH, two is MEDIUM, three is LOW and four turns the fan OFF.

  1. (For Fan)

2. The light pull chain, located to the left of the reverse switch, is used to turn the light ON or OFF.

  • To activate and change between the light’s five color-changing temperature (CCT) settings, pull and hold the chain for a minimum of three seconds.
  • Release the chain to set the preferred color temperature. The color temperature will be set until activating CCT again.
  1. (For Light)

3. Use the fan reverse switch on the light kit fitter (C) to optimize your fan for seasonal performance. A ceiling fan will allow you to raise your thermostat setting in summer and lower your thermostat setting in winter without feeling a difference in your comfort.

NOTE: Wait for fan to stop before moving the reverse switch.

  1. Reverse Switch

3a. In warmer weather, setting the reverse switch in the LEFT position will result in downward airflow creating a wind chill effect.

3b. In cooler weather, setting the reverse switch in the RIGHT position will result in upward airflow that can help move stagnant, hot air off the ceiling area.

CFH42BNK3L - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3a & 3b

3c. IMPORTANT: Reverse switch must be set either completely LEFT or completely RIGHT for fan to function. If the reverse switch is set in the middle position, fan will not operate.
