READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
•CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! All wiring must be performed in accordance with national and local electrical
codes. If you are unfamiliar with the wiring codes, you should use a qualified electrician. To avoid overheating and
possible damage to other equipment, do not install control to a receptacle, fluorescent light fixture, motor operated
appliance, or transformer-supplied appliance.
•This fan is designed to be installed on an existing electrical outlet box. The outlet box must be UL Listed for ceiling fan
installations, if it is not, a new box must be installed. Casablanca extension poles are available for sloped or high ceiling
installations.
•This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum 15 amp circuit. The maximum
current requirement for the fan with light fixture is 3.8 amps. The fan uses about 1 amp or 100 watts. Maximum light
current is 2.8 amps or 340 watts of lighting.
•Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy hatch, make
sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.
For best performance and for your warranty to be valid,
use only genuine Casablanca blades, light fixtures, and accessories.
Safety and the proper operation of your Casablanca fan both require a thorough knowledge of the
product and proper installation; therefore, before attempting to install and operate your Casablanca
fan, read this owner’s manual completely and carefully. Retain this manual for future reference.
SAFETY FIRST
BEFORE YOU START
CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, make certain that electricity is turned off at
the circuit breaker or fuse box before attempting any installation procedure.
•Thebladesin each packarematchedforequal

When to Use Extension Poles
Forbest performanceandbest appearance,
an extension pole should be used with
your Casablanca fan when installing on
high (cathedral) ceilings or sloped
ceilings. Casablanca offers standard poles
in increments of 6" up to 5'. Custom poles
are available in lengths up to 9’ 9”. See
your Authorized Casablanca Dealer for
details.

Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. The location of the fan, air circulation,
and fan size are all important factors to consider before installation.
Location
Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every room in your home. We suggest you follow these mounting
recommendations as you decide where to install your Casablanca fan.
•For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7' above the floor.
•Do not locate the fan in a doorway or above a swinging door.
•In any installation, the tips of the blades must be at least 18" from the wall in order to provide
sufficient clearance for the blades.
• In bedrooms, fans work best when mounted above the foot of the bed.
•In low ceiling locations, our optional Low Ceiling Adaptor (LCA—available at
extra cost) can be used to gain 31⁄2" on certain fan models.
•Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of clearance to avoid damage from
pool cues.
• In kitchens be sure to allow for open cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.
•Do not install a fan close to, or over, a pool or spa. High humidity combined with
corrosive gases will destroy the finish and warp the blades.
Fan Size
Variable fan speed capability permits the use of a full-size 52" fan even in
smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans may be needed.
EXAMPLE 1
This slope is less than 32˚.
It is OK to install your fan.
EXAMPLE 2
This slope is 32˚. This is the maximum
slope that will allow the fan to hang
straight down. It is OK to install your
fan.
EXAMPLE 3
This slope is more than 32˚.
Your fan will not hang straight down, an
adaptor is necessary. Contact your local
Authorized Casablanca Dealer in regards
to purchasing a “Slope Ceiling Adaptor.”
32°
NOTE: Fan may wobble or vibrate if
pole length is not long enough and
inside blade is too close to downslope
or side wall. Extending pole length
will usually solve problem.

FAN PREPARATION
GETTING STARTED
Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fixture located where you wish
to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling fixture
outlet box must be installed and wired.
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
Afterturningthepower OFF atits source(eithercircuitbreaker
or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect the wiring.
Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure that it is
marked ‘Approved for ceiling fan mounting’. If it is not, a new
box must be installed.
Prepare for fan installation as follows:
Step A. Route the wires from the motor through the
Perma•Lock™ downrod and ball assembly.
Step B. Using the provided allen wrench, loosen the set screw
several turns to allow installation of the downrod. Thread
the downrod into the motor coupling until it stops turning,
this will take at least four and a half full turns.
Step C. Securely tighten the set screw with the provided allen
wrench to ensure safe operation of your fan.
Tip: The downrod has a tapered thread
that is designed to lock completely when
correctly installed.
CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the down-
rod before securely tightening the set screw
may cause the fan to separate from the
downrod during normal operation!
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION!
BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR CEILING FAN, INSTALL THE
THREADED DOWNROD INTO THE MOTOR COUPLING AND LOCK THE ASSEMBLY
NOTE: Only one set of blade holders is supplied. Depend-
ing on the fan model and series they will be either the

TROUBLESHOOTING
Before Requesting Service: Please follow this troubleshooting guide before contacting your dealer for assistance.
Caring for Finishes: For cleaning, a soft brush or lint-free cloth
should be used to prevent scratching the finish. A vacuum cleaner
brush nozzle can remove heavier dust. Surface smudges or an accu-
mulation of dirt and dust can easily be removed by using a mild
detergent and slightly dampened soft cloth. An antistatic agent
may be used, but never use abrasive cleaning agents. These will
damage the finish. Painted and high-gloss blades may be cleaned
in the same manner.
Blades: Wood finish blades should be cleaned with a furniture pol-
ishing cloth. Occasionally, a light coat of furniture polish may be
applied for added protection and beauty.
Never Lubricate this Fan!
The precision motor at the heart of your Casablanca fan features
sealed bearings that are lubricated for life. Do not attempt to oil
the motor.
Changing Light Bulbs
Be sure to turn power to the fan OFF at the wall switch or circuit
breaker before changing light bulbs. Replace bulbs with same type
as removed from the fixture. Each fan is rated for a maximum TOTAL
wattage of lighting.
Exceeding the rated maximum allowable wattage for the fan will
burn out the fan electronics module and void the warranty.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE REMEDIES
FAN WILL NOT START Check main circuit fuses, circuit breakers, or wall switch position.
Check all wire connections, making sure the power is turned off during this inspection.
Check that reverse switch is not set in center of throw.
FAN WOBBLES OR SHAKES Be sure canopy pin is properly set into the slot on the ball.
EXCESSIVELY Check the screws holding the blade holders to the flywheel (or direct drive motor). Tighten as necessary.
Check that bladeholders have not been bent during installation.
FAN NOISY DURING Check and tighten light fixture retaining screws, glass shade screws and/or the light bulb(s) as neccessary.
OPERATION Tighten the blade to bladeholder screws.
Tighten canopy screws and mounting plate assembly.
Check and tighten blade holders to flywheel (or direct drive motor).
