DUAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
DUAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies: the
standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket
mounting, and the "close-to-ceiling" mounting. The "close-to-ceiling"
mounting is recommended in rooms with less than 8 ft. ceilings or in
areas where additional space is desired from the oor to the fan blades.
When using the standard downrod installation, the distance from the
ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 12 in. The
"close-to-ceiling" installation reduces the distance from the ceiling to the
bottom of the fan blades to approximately 9 in.
Once you have decided which ceiling installation you will use, refer to the
corresponding sections and procedures during the assembly period.
Where necessary, each section of the instructions will note the different
procedures to follow for the two types of installation.

Please contact 1-800-986-3460 for further assistance.

To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no ceiling
joist, you may need an installation hanger bar (MM) (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 outlet box (LL) (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 three different ways to mount the
outlet box (LL) (not included).

The learning process causes any installed fan within range to
memorize a remote control. Fans can learn ve remotes.
To add a remote to your fan’s memory, use the steps below:
□Ensure AC power to the fan is OFF to begin the learning
process.
□Slide the dip switch in the battery compartment to the "1"
position.
□Turn the fan’s AC power ON.
□Within 60 seconds of turning AC power on, press and release the
" Pairing" button located in the remote's battery compartment
to enter the learning function. Once the fan has detected the
remote controls's frequency, the down light of your fan, if
applicable, will blink, and the fan blades will start to spin.
□The fan will now accept commands from the added remote.
LEARNING PROCESS
NOTE: If installing multiple fans on separate remotes,
only the fan being programmed should have AC power
turned ON. All other fans, even if they have already
been programmed, should have AC power OFF so they
do not memorize other remotes during the learning
process. Separate the fan power switches by
approximately 2 meters.
NOTE: The dip switch in the battery compartment has
been set on “0” position and paired for your
convenience. If you have two or more fans, please
follow steps below to control each fan independently.

□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.
□Check to make sure the frequency switches from the remote control and receiver are set to the same
frequency.
□Reset the transmitter by going through the transmitter “LEARNING PROCESS”.
□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 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.
□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 that rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting
bracket and outlet box.

Solution
□Do not connect the fan with wall mounted variable speed control(s).
□Make sure the frequency switches are set correctly.
□Reset the transmitter by going through the transmitter “LEARNING PROCESS”.
□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 much quieter than standard AC motor fans.
The fan wobbles.
The remote control is
not working.
Fan moves backwards and
forwards when turned on.
□Verify that all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by
loose parts). Once the fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan
self-adjust.
If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:
- Select a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades, then select any fan blade and
measure from the center of the selected blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned and repeat the measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade.
Measurement deviations should be within 1/8 in..
- If all deviations are less than 1/8 in. and the fan continues to wobble, please call Customer Service
(1-800-986-3460) to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit.
- If deviation is greater than 1/8 in. , please call Customer Service (1-800-986-3460) to order
complimentary replacements of your brackets.
