We warrant the fan motor to be free from defects in workmanship and material present at time of shipment from the factory for a period of a lifetime
after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. We warrant that the light kit to be free from defects in workmanship and material at the time of
shipment from the factory for a period of five years after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. We also warrant that all other fan parts,
excluding any glass or acrylic blades, to be free from defects in workmanship and material at the time of shipment from the factory for a period of
two years after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. We agree to correct such defects without charge or at our option replace with a
comparable or superior model if the product is returned. To obtain warranty service, you must present a copy of the receipt as proof of purchase. All
costs of removing and reinstalling the product are your responsibility. Damage to any part such as by accident, misuse, improper installation, or by
affixing any accessories, is not covered by this warranty. Because of varying climatic conditions, this warranty does not cover any changes in brass
finish, including rusting, pitting, corroding, tarnishing or peeling. Brass finishes of this type give their longest useful life when protected from varying
weather conditions. A certain amount of “wobble” is normal and should not be considered a defect. Servicing performed by unauthorized persons
shall render the warranty invalid. There is no other express warranty. We hereby disclaim any and all warranties, including but not limited to those
of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose to the extent permitted by law. The duration of any implied warranty which cannot be
disclaimed is limited to the time period as specified in the express warranty. Some provinces do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty
lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. The retailer shall not be liable for incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in
connection with product use or performance except as may otherwise be accorded by law. Some provinces do not allow the exclusion of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specific legal rights, and you may also have
other rights which vary from province to province. This warranty supersedes all prior warranties. Shipping costs for any return of the product as part
of a claim on the warranty must be paid by the customer.

Problem Solution
The fan will not start. □Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
□Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
The fan is noisy. □Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.
□Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.
□Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing.
□Allow a 24-hour “breaking in” period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this time.
□If you are using the ceiling fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light
bulbs are also secure.
□Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
□Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting bracket and outlet
box.
The fan wobbles. □Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
□
The fan moves
backwards and
forwards when turned
on.
This is normal start-up procedure for DC motor fans. The partial movement during start-up is the result of the DC
motor aligning the internal magnetic poles for proper motor operation. This design saves electricity and allows
the fan to operate more quietly than standard AC motor fans.
□
Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a point on
the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of the blade to the point on the
ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement, and measure from the same point on
each blade to the ceiling. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten minutes. If the
fan continues to wobble, please contact Customer Service. A balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.
Check the battery in the remote control.
Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-17 feet.
