READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR FAN AND SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, turn o the electricity to the fan at the main fuse box or circuit panel before you
begin the fan installation or before servicing the fan or installing accessories.
• To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to the outlet box marked "Acceptable for Fan Support
of 15.9 kg (35 lb) or less," and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used
for the support of lighting xtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualied
electrician if in doubt.
• To reduce the risk of re, 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.
• For Models INS62FB3 and INS62W3 only: If using this fan in a WET location, this fan must be connected to a supply circuit
that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce the risk of personal injury, electrical shock or
death.
• To reduce the risk of re or electrical shock, do not use this fan with any solid state speed control device or control fan
speed with a full range dimmer switch. [Using a full range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a loud humming
noise from fan.]
• To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, do not bend the blades during assembly or
after installation. Do not insert objects into the path of the blades.
• To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble any part of the fan, including the blades.
• To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
• This fan MUST be installed with the safety cable provided with the fan. Failure to use the safety cable provided may result
in personal injury, damage to the fan or damage to other property.
• 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.
CAUTION
• To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.
1. Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local Codes or Ordinances, the National Electrical Code, and
ANSI/NFPA 70-1999. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are dierent colors than
those referred to in the instructions, please use a qualied electrician.
2. Make sure you have a location selected for your fan that allows clear space for the blades to rotate, and at least seven
(7) feet (2.13 meters) of clearance between the oor and the fan blade tips. The fan should be mounted so that the tips
of the blades are at least thirty (30) inches (76 centimeters) from walls or other upright structures.
3. The outlet box and ceiling support joist used must be securely mounted, and capable of supporting at least 35 pounds
(16 kilograms). The outlet box must be supported directly by the building structure. Use only CUL in Canada or UL in
USA listed outlet boxes marked "FOR FAN SUPPORT."
4. Electrical diagrams are for reference only.
5. After installation is complete, check that all connections are absolutely secure.
6. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the
outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor
on opposite sides of the outlet box.
7. Do not operate the reverse switch until the fan has come to a complete stop.
8. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be
