Safety Information
□Read and save these instructions.
□To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has
been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before
beginning.
□All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical
Code “ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes.
Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified
licensed electrician.
□The outlet box and support structure must be securely
mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35
lbs. Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN
SUPPORT.”
□The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. clearance
from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.

Warranty
4
Pre-InstallationPre-Installation
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 lifetime after the date of purchase by the original purchaser. We also warrant 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 one year 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 installa-
tion 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 states 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 states 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
state to state. This warranty supersedes all prior warranties. Shipping costs for any return of product as part of a claim on the warranty
must be paid by the customer.

To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling
joist, you may need an installation hanger bar (KK) (not included)
as shown above.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting
box, then install one using the following instructions:
□Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off
the circuit breakers.
□Secure the ceiling outlet box (JJ) (not included) directly to
the building structure. Use appropriate fasteners and
materials (not included). The outlet box and its bracing
must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan
(at least 35 lbs.). Do not use a plastic outlet box.
The illustrations below show two different ways to mount the
outlet box (JJ) (not included).
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support using the screws provided with the
outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of
lighting fixtures may not be acceptable for fan support and
may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.

REVERSE SWITCH OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
REVERSE SWITCH OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The reverse switch is located on the surface of the switch housing.
This switch controls directions: forward (switch left) or reverse
(switch right).
Warm weather - (Counterclockwise Direction) A downward air flow
creates a cooling effect. This allows you to set your air conditioner
on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Clockwise Direction) An upward air flow moves
warm air off the ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on
a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

□Do not connect the fan with wall mounted variable speed control(s).
□Check to make sure the dip switches from the remote control and receiver are set to the same
frequency.
□Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.
□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 each blade
to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement. Repeat for
each blade. Measurement deviations should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for 10 minutes.
□Use the enclosed blade balancing kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.
The fan wobbles.
The remote control is
not working.
Troubleshooting
Problem

Solution
Solution
□Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
□Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
□Check to make sure the dip switches from the remote control and receiver are set to the same
frequency.
□Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
□Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade arm to the motor hub are tight.
□Make sure 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 using the ceiling light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light
bulb is 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 will not start.
The fan sounds noisy.
