What to Expect with Your Installation
Know your wiring
If you are unfamiliar
with wiring, use a
qualied electrician.
You may need a
friend to help you.

Select a downrod length
w.1 - To reduce the risk of re, 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 re, electrical shock, or motor damage,
use only Casablanca Solid State Speed Controls.
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.
c.1 - All wiring must be in accordance with national and local
electrical codes ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring,
use a qualied electrician.
c.2 - Use only Casablanca replacement parts.

To avoid possible electrical shock, before
installing your fan, disconnect the power by
turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet
box associated with the wall switch location.
For angled ceilings, point
opening toward peak.
If you are unable to do this,
call Technical Support at
1-888-277-2178.
Make sure all four bumpers are
still attached.
Use wood screws
(included) when securing
to support structure with
approved electrical outlet
box. Drill 9/64” pilot holes
in support structure to aid
in securing ceiling bracket
with hardware found in
the hardware bag.
Use machine screws
(provided with outlet
box) when securing to
existing ceiling fan-rated
outlet box. Make sure
it is securely installed
and is acceptable for fan

Note: Some fans will have a shipping
ring instead of shipping blocks. Please
remove the ring and save the screws.
Time Saver Tip: Get a helper
to insert grommets, found in
the hardware bag, into the
blades while you’re doing the
next couple of steps.
If you are installing multiple remote-controlled
fans on the same circuit breaker,
you may need to perform a few extra steps to
prevent interference or faulty operation of your
remote controls.

until the drywall anchor is ush
with the wall.
1. Using a drywall punch saw,
cut out the interior shape of
the template using one of
the four drilled corners as a
starting point.
2. Remove the template and the
cut-out section of drywall.
1. Insert the wall control into the
dry wall cut out.
2. Align the screw holes in the wall

a Phillips Head screwdriver
to secure the two cover plate
screws found in the wall control
hardware bag through the wall
control and into the drywall
anchors.
Wall Control
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
If you are using a outlet box for wall control installation, the wires coming from the wall
control must be grounded using the attached green wire. If not placed in an outlet box, cap
the green wire coming from the wall control with an included wire nut.
1. Tape the provided wall control
template with painter’s tape at
the desired installation area.
2. Drill holes inside the four
corners of the template.
Note: Make sure the wall

Casablanca fans have the power to cut your cooling
costs up to 40%.
Beat the High Cost of Cooling
The air movement created by a Casablanca ceiling
fan lets you set your thermostat higher and still stay
comfortable. Every degree you raise the thermostat
saves up to 7% on energy costs. So, you can cut back
on expensive air conditioning ... and save up to 40%*
on cooling. In winter, your Casablanca fan recirculates
warm air and saves up to 10%* on heating bills.
* On average at low speed settings. Your savings may
vary based on climate, building type and thermostat
setting.
Save Energy and Money While Protecting
the Environment
Congratulations! You’re saving energy and money
while protecting the environment by purchasing this
ENERGY STAR qualied Casablanca ceiling fan! With
this purchase, you are doing your part to protect the
environment.
Your new ceiling fan has earned the ENERGY STAR label
because it meets high energy efciency specications
set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ENERGY STAR labeled ceiling fans save energy because
they have more efcient fan motors and air delivery
due to more aerodynamic blade congurations. Ceiling
fan models bearing the ENERGY STAR label move air
14 - 20% more efciently than typical ceiling fan
models. For more information on ENERGY STAR visit
www.energystar.gov.
