Thank you for purchasing your Claro Summer DC Ceiling Fan. Please read all instructions
carefully before assembly and use.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read all instructions carefully, even if you feel you are quite familiar with this type of appliance. When
using electrical appliances, in order to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and/or injury, these
basic safety precautions should always be followed:
1. All wiring must be done by a licenced electrician as on-site warranty may be voided if proof
cannot be provided. This ceiling fan MUST be installed by a Qualied Electrical Contractor in
accordance with the local regulations, and all local, state and national electrical codes. Any
alterations or additions to building wiring must be completed by a licensed electrical contractor, or
person authorised by legislation to work on the xed wiring of any electrical installation.
2. The fan must be connected to a 240V AC 50Hz power supply.
3. All electrical work must only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses
or turning o the circuit breaker, to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply.
4. The fan must be earthed.
5. The fan must be installed so that the blades are at least 2.1 metres above the oor.
6. The ceiling fan weight is max. 8 kg. The structure that the ceiling fan is mounted to must be
capable of supporting a weight of at least 45kg. The xing must be able to support the moving
weight of the fan and must not twist or work loose.
7. Make sure that the installation site will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact with
any object and that there is enough space from the blade tip to the wall or ceiling. Please note that
insucient clearance distances might cause wobbling and the bigger this clearance is the better the
airow from your fan will be.
8. DO NOT install CFCLSU2WH and CFCLSU2LWH outdoors. Installing the fan in a position where it
could be exposed to water, moisture or external elements is dangerous.
9. CFCLSU2WHABS and CFCLSU2LWHABS can be installed in a position where it is covered or
enclosed al fresco areas and there is a minimum clearance of 1.50 m from the blade tip to all edges
of the roof or positions where could be exposed to water, moisture or other dangerous external
elements.
10. DO NOT connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch. This may give an unsatisfactory
performance (motor hum) and cause damage to the motor and/or controller. Use ONLY the
provided remote control.
11. This appliance is not intended for use by young children or inrm persons without supervision.
12. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they DO NOT play with the appliance.
13. It is NOT recommended that ceiling fans and gas appliances be operated in the same room at
the same time.
14. The fan must be turned o and stopped completely before reversing the fan direction. This will
prevent any damage to the motor of the fan or controller.
15. Do not insert anything into the fan blades whilst they are spinning. This will damage the blades
and upset the balance of the fan causing the unit to wobble.
16. After the fan is completely installed make sure that all base and fan blade xings are secured and
tightened to prevent any problems.
17. Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may loosen. Check the support
connections, brackets and blade attachments twice a year to make sure they remain secured. If any
are loose, tighten.
18. If unusual oscillating movement is observed, immediately stop using the ceiling fan and contact
the manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualied persons.
19. The replacement of parts of the safety suspension system device shall be performed by the
1

manufacturer, its service agent or suitably qualied persons.
20. If it is necessary to replace the live or neutral brushes to ensure operation of the motor then
both brushes and the earth brush shall be replaced at the same time. The brushes shall only be
replaced by a suitably qualied person.
21. An all-pole disconnection incorporated in the xed wiring is to be provided, such as an all-pole
switch or a supply cord tted with a plug.
22. The light source in light kit is not replaceable; when the light source reaches its end of life the
whole light kit shall be replaced by manufacture, his service agent or a qualied person.
23. The max operating temperature for the fan is 40 °C. Keep the fan away from any heat sources,
like re place, heater and stove.

2. Taking one blade at a time, remove the three screws, insert the blade into the slots through the
motor and align the blade with the three holes. Secure the screws through the opening exposed when
the cover plate is removed.
Tighten all screws evenly and securely to ensure quiet, wobble free operation of the fan.
Install all 4 blades in the same fashion, once complete replace the covering plate on top of the motor
housing by reversing step 1.

4. Snuggle the coupling cover down onto the top of the motor housing. CAUTION: DO NOT
remove rubber gasket on top of the coupling cover.
3. Feed the main motor wire plug up through the inside of the downrod, then insert the downrod
into the motor bush. Gently push the cross-pin through the holes aligned with the base of the
motor bush and downrod. CAUTION: DO NOT force the cross-pin, gently wiggle and rotate it
until it glides through both holes. Replace the cotter-pin on the other side of the cross-pin to
secure the downrod to the motor bush. Tighten up both cross screws to make the downrod rigid in
the motor bush.

8. Place the receiver on top of the hanger ball and connect the wires.
9. Connect power, receiver and the fan as electrical wiring diagram.
IMPORTANT: The fan must be earthed! Double pole disconnection switch and wall switch must
be connected.
10. Place the canopy over the bracket, align the canopy holes with the screws and tighten.
9
11. Hold the diuser for light model or bottom plate for no light model to the bottom of the
motor and rotate clockwise until it locks into space.

REVERSE FUNCTION
The “Summer/Winter” reverse function is included in the remote control to make the fan rotate in
an anti-clockwise direction during summer.
In winter, this can be reversed, so that the blades now move in a clockwise direction.
Press and hold “F/R” button for 3 seconds to switch between “Summer” and “Winter modes
CARE & CLEANING:
• Periodic cleaning (approximately 6 months) of your ceiling fan is the only maintenance required.
• Use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. Please turn o electricity when you
do so.
• Do not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the wooden blades
and create the possibility of an electrical shock.
• The motor has a permanently lubricated ball bearing and as such, is maintenance free.
NOISE:
The manufacturer warranty covers actual faults that may develop, but NOT minor complaints, e.g.
motor operation noise - ALL ELECTRIC MOTORS ARE AUDIBLE TO SOME EXTENT; this is more
obvious when the fan is operating at low speeds.
WOBBLE:
• Ceiling fans are designed to move during operation because they are not generally rigidly mounted
• Movement of a couple of centimetres is acceptable for safe operation.
• Balancing kits included should be used to adjust the balancing when rst installed.
NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR:
Threaded components working slighting loose or blade carriers even slightly bent due to
vigorous cleaning or bumping can cause extra wobble and noise. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER
WARRANTY, but a little care and maintenance can reduce or prevent this problem.
REMOTE CONTROL SETTINGS AND OPERATION FOR DC FANS
NOTE:
The Hand Held Remote Control System is equipped with a learning frequency function which has
code combinations to prevent potential interference from other remote units. The frequency
on your Receiver and Transmitter units have been pre-set at the factory. If the remotes need
programming please following these instructions and use a small size tool to change the code
switch setting for each remote.
PAIRING THE REMOTE:
All fans are pre-paired and there is no paring process needed to start the fan.
If you want to reset the fan to factory setting. Please follow steps below.
1. Connect power to the fan.
2. Within 10 seconds after turning on the power, short press “ON/OFF” 3 times, followed by the
4th press and hold the button for 3 seconds. Then, the fan will beep once and it means it’s paired
successfully.
3. Now test the remote by pressing on speeds or light button.
4. It can take up to 10 seconds for the fan to start moving, after pressing a speed button. The fan
may move a few times slightly backwards and forwards and then will start rotating slowly whilst
building up to the correct speed. This is normal behaviour for DC fans.
Considerations:
1) If the receiver is not receiving a signal from the remote control:
10

a. Please check the battery to ensure it has sucient power and has been inserted correctly and
aligns with the positive and negative terminals; or
b. Please check if there are any other similarly remote controlled objects that work nearby, as
remote controlled items operating on the same frequency may disturb each other.
2) If the battery is low it will aect the sensitivity of the remote control and the signal reception and
must be replaced (the LED indicator light will ash a warning when the battery runs low).
3) Please remove the battery if the remote control is not being used for a long time.
4) If multiple fans are installed near the fan to be paired, power to the other fans should be turned
o before pairing.
Considerations when installing multiple ceiling fans:
Sometimes you may encounter a remote control issue when installing multiple fans. For the
purposes of this troubleshooting guide:
Fan A uses Remote control A and Receiver A, while Fan B uses Remote control B and Receiver B.
Isolate power to one fan only when pairing the remotes
When installing two or more fans, you should manually isolate power to Fan B while completing the
pairing process on Fan A. If power is not isolated to one of the fans when the power is restored at
the fuse box, then both receivers will be put into “learning mode” such that when you try to pair
Remote control A to Receiver A, Receiver B will also be in learning mode and might pair to Remote
control A too.
