4. MOUNTING OPTIONS

If there isn't an existing UL (cUL for Canadian

Installation) listed mounting box, then read the

following instructions. Disconnect the power by

removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.

Secure the outlet box directly to the building

structure. Use appropriate fasteners and

building materials. The outlet box and its

support must be able to fully support the

moving weight of the fan (at least 50 lbs). Do

not use plastic outlet boxes.

Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different

ways to mount the outlet box.

NOTE: If you are installing the ceiling fan on a

sloped (vaulted) ceiling, you may need a

longer downrod to maintain proper clearance

between the tip of the blade and the ceiling. A

minimum clearance of 12" is suggested for

optimal operation.

NOTE: Depending on the location you have

selected for installation, you may need to

purchase and install a "Joist Hanger" for the

support of the outlet box. Make sure the joist

hanger you purchase has been designed for

use with ceiling fans. (Fig. 4)

Receiver

Ceiling Mounting

Bracket

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock,

be sure you have turned off the power at the

main circuit panel.

NOTE: In the Transmiter, Set Dip Switch #5 on

the X position. This disables the dimming

function because your ceiling utilizes CFL lamps

that can NOT be dimmed. (Fig.12)

NOTE: The CoolTouch™ Control System is

equipped with 16 possible frequency

combinations to prevent interference from or with

other remote control units. The frequency

switches on your receiver and transmitter have

been preset at the factory. Please recheck to

make sure the switches on transmitter and

receiver are set to the same position, any

combination of settings will operate the fan as

long as the transmitter and receiver are set to

the same position. (Fig. 12)

Step 1. Insert the receiver into the ceiling

mounting bracket with the flat side of the receiver

facing the ceiling. (Fig. 13) For best

performance, make sure the Black Antenna, on

the end of the receiver, remains extended and

not tangled with any of the electrical wires.

Step 2. Motor to Receiver Electrical

Connections: (Fig. 14) Connect the black wire

from the fan to the black wire marked "TO

MOTOR L" on the receiver.

6. INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT

(required for Canadian installation ONLY)

A safety support cable is provided to help

prevent the ceiling fan from falling, please install

it as follows.

Step 1. Attach the provided wood screw and

washers to the ceiling joist next to the mounting

bracket but do not tighten. (Fig. 11)

Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to

reach the screw and washers by pulling the

extra cable through the cable clamp until the

overall length is correct, put the end of the

cable back through the cable clamp, forming a

loop at the end of the cable. Tighten the cable

clamp securely. Now, put the loop in the end of

the safety cable over the wood screw and under

the washer. Tighten the wood screw securely.

NOTE: Although the safety support cable is

required for Canadian installations only. It's a

good idea to make the attachment with any

installation.

18. SPECIFICATIONS

These are approximate measurements. They do not include data for any lamps or fixtures attached

to the ceiling fan.

Problem

Fan will not start.

Fan sounds noisy.

Fan wobble.

Remote control

malfunction.

Solution

1. Check circuit fuses or breakers.

2. Check all electrical connections to insure proper contact. CAUTION: Make

sure the main power is OFF when checking any electrical connection.

3. Make sure the transmitter batteries are installed properly. Positive (+) side

facing out.

4. Insure the batteries have a good charge.

1. Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

2. Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade brackets to the motor are tight.

3. Make sure wire nut connections are not rubbing against each other or the

interior wall of the switch housing. CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

4. Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noise associated with a new fan

disappear during this time.

5. If using an optional light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware

are tight. Make sure the light bulbs are not touching any other component.

6. Do not connect this fan to wall mounted variable speed control(s). they are

not compatible with ceiling fan motors or remote controls.

7. Make sure the upper canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not

touch the ceiling.

1. Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.

2. Most fan wobbling 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 this distance. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned

for measurement. Repeat for each blade. The distance deviation should be

equal within 1/8".

3. Use the enclosed Blade Balancing Kit if the blade wobble is still noticeable.

4. If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by

side) blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother

operation.

1. Ceiling Fans with remote control systems CAN NOT be operated in

conjunction with any other control system EXCEPT a basic On/Off wall switch,

if desired.

2. Make sure the frequency dip switches in the transmitter and receiver have

identical settings.

3. Make sure the Black Antenna on the receiver is NOT tangled with any other

electrical wires and is extended around the inside of the ceiling canopy.
