Care and Cleaning

□Check the support connections, brackets, and blade

attachments twice a year. Ensure they are secure.

Because of the fan’s natural movement, some

connections may become loose over time. It is not

necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.

□Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or

lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the ﬁnish. The plating

is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or

tarnishing.

□(Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood

blades.

□(Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application

of shoe polish.

Do □Do not use water when cleaning. Water could damage the

motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.

□Do not apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has

permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting

WARNING: Ensure the power is off at the electrical

panel box before you attempt any repairs. Refer to the section

“Making the Electrical Connections” on page 9.

□Do not connect the fan with wall mounted variable speed control(s).

□Check the battery in the remote control.

□Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.

□Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a

point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of each blade

to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for

each blade. Measurements deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for 10 minutes.

The fan wobbles.

The remote control is

not working.

Problem Solution

□Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet.

□Make sure the receiver has been matched.

□Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.

□Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.

□Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

□Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade arm to the motor hub are tight.

□Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch

housing.

□Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this

time.

□If using the ceiling light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light

bulb is also secure.

□Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.

□Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket

and outlet box.

The fan will not start.

The fan sounds noisy. □This is normal start-up procedure for DC motor fans. The partial movement during start-up is the result

of the DC motor aligning the internal magnetic poles for proper motor operation. This design saves

electricity and allows the fan to operate much quieter than standard AC motor fans.
