Your Emerson Ceiling is designed to be installed either in the standard manner, or in the close-to-the-
ceiling manner. Using the standard method, the hanger ball/downrod assembly will suspend the fan several
inches below the ceiling cover. Using the close-to-the-ceiling method, the ceiling cover installs directly on
the fan motor housing, thus mounting the fan 3-1/2 inches closer to the ceiling than the standard methond.
In no case should the fan blades be lower than seven feet above the floor. Depending on your desire
mounting method, proceed to ‘INSTALLING HANGER BALL/DOWNROD ASSEMBLY” for standard
mounting, or to “INSTALLING CEILING COVER ON FAN MOTOR HOUSING” for close-to-the-ceiling
mounting.

Remote Control Procedures
General
Your Emerson Ceiling Fan/Light Remote Control
consists of hand-held transmitter and a receiver which
is mounted under the fan ceiling cover. The remote
control is designed to separately control your ceiling
fan speed and light intensity.
The remote control transmitter is powered by two AAA
alkaline batteries (included). To prevent possible
damage if the batteries should leak, be sure to
remove the batteries when the control is not to be
used for an extended period of time.
Code switches in the transmitter and receiver may be
set in 32 different positions. If your fan and light go on
and off without using your control, you may be getting
interference from other remote units such as garage
door openers, car alarms or security systems. To
remedy this situations, simply change the combination
code in your transmitter and receiver.
Preset Memory Feature
Your Emerson receiver is equipped with a preset
memory feature. If the AC supply to the receiver is
powered through a wall switch, when the switch is
turned OFF, the control will remember the light
intensity and fan speed. When the switch is turned
back ON the light and fan will resume operation as
they were prior to the switch being turned OFF.
Installation of Light Bulb & Lower Cover (All Fans)
1. Install the 50-watt (maximum) GU10 base light bulb
(supplied) into the light socket (Figure 25). Turn
bulb clockwise to engage into the socket for secure
fit.
NOTE: Do not touch the new 50-watt (maximum)
MR-16, GU-10 bulb with your bare fingers; using a
cloth or soft gloves to hold the bulb, gently push
it into the socket and twist to lock the lamp into
the socket (Figure 25). If there is any doubt that
the bulb may have been contaminated by your
touch, you should clean the bulb before its first
use. Take a clean cloth dipped in a small amount
of rubbing/isopropyl alcohol and gently brush off
the bulb surface. If the lamp is hot, wait 30
minutes before cleaning.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock,
burns or other injury, disconnect the electric
supply circuit to the fan before attempting to
install or replace the halogen bulb.
CAUTION: To not touch halogen bulbs with bare
hands. Fingerprints may result in shorter bulb life.
Remove fingerprints with alcohol.
2. Place the lower cover into the opening in the light
kit plate assembly. Place the three pins on the light
kit plate assembly into the three mounting holes
located on the underside of the lower cover. Turn
the lower cover clockwise until it stops and locks
into place (Figure 26).
NOTE: Periodically check that the cover is seated
fully clockwise in the light kit plate assembly.

Setting Operating Frequency of Remote Control
Your remote control has code switches which must be
set in one of 32 possible code combinations
(Figure 29). The five levers (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4,
and 5) on the switches are factory-set in the ON (up)
position. Change the switch settings as follows
(Figure 29):
1. Slide the five switch levers in the remote control to
your choice of ON (up) or down positions. Use a
ball-point pen or small screwdriver and slide the
levers firmly up or down.
2. Restore electrical power to the ceiling fan at the
circuit breaker panel or fuse box.
3. Within 1 minute of restoring electricity, push and
hold the remote control OFF button ( ) for 3 to 5
seconds to set the code in the receiver. The fan's
lights will blink several times to confirm the fan is
programmed.
NOTE: The ceiling fan receiver will not respond to
transmitter commands if the transmitter’s
frequency switch settings are changed without
reprogramming the receiver. Program the receiver
to the new frequency by repeating the “Setting
Operating Frequency of Remote Control” and
“High Speed Conditioning” instructions.

Energy Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely
heavily on the proper installation and use of the
ceiling fan. Here are a few tips to ensure quality and
product performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location.
Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the
middle of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor
and 18 inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows,
install the fan 8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal
airflow. Consult your Emerson Retailer for optional
mounting accessories.
Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summer,
use the ceiling fan in the counter-clockwise direction.
The airflow produced by the ceiling fan creates a
wind-chill effect, making you "feel" cooler. Select a
fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze, lower
speeds consume less energy. In the winter, reverse
the motor and operate the ceiling fan at low speed in
the clockwise direction. This produces a gentle
updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling down
into the occupied space. Remember to adjust your
thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional
energy and dollar savings could be realized with this
simple step!
Turn Off When Not in the Room. Ceiling fans cool
people, not rooms. If the room is unoccupied, turn off
the ceiling fan to save energy.
Remote Control Procedures (cont.)
1. To turn on or shut off the ceiling fan, press and
release the ( ) button.
2. To set the desired fan speed, press the ( )
button to decrease the speed and the ( ) to
increase the speed. The LED display will light up
to indicate the new speed selected.
3. To turn the downlight on or off, press and release
the ( ) button.
4. To vary the intensity of the light, hold the ( )
button down until the desired light intensity is
reached, then release the button. The remote
dimmer code must be set to “D” to use the
dimming features (Figure 29).
Operating Your Ceiling Fan
Reversing Air Circulation
Figure 29
1.All fans are shipped from the factory with the
reversing switch positioned to circulate air
downward. If airflow is desired in opposite
direction, turn your fan off and wait for the blades to
stop turning, then slide the reversing switch to the
opposite position, and turn fan on again
(Figure 30).
2. The fan blades will turn in the opposite direction
and reverse the airflow.
