General
Your Emerson ceiling fan comes equipped
with a remote control transmitter and a
remote control receiver. This remote con-
trol systems is designed to control your
ceiling fan speed, airflow direction, and
light intensity.
NOTE: An optional SW115 Wall Control
(not supplied) may also be used with
the remote control receiver supplied
with your ceiling fan.
IMPORTANT
This Owner’s Manual is divided into
two sections. The first section,
REMOTE CONTROL PROCEDURES,
describes how to install the four alka-
line batteries (not supplied) in the
remote control transmitter, and how to
set the operating frequency of the
transmitter and receiver. These instruc-
tions must be performed prior to the
installation of the ceiling fan as
described in the second section,
CEILING FAN PROCEDURES.
REMOTE CONTROL
PROCEDURES
General
The remote control system is designed to
separately control your ceiling fan and
light intensity. There are four push buttons
on the transmitter (HIGH, MED, LOW,
OFF) to set the fan speed and turn the fan
off. The REV push button changes the air-
flow direction of the fan blades. The UP
(uplight) and DN (downlight) push buttons
turn the lights on and off and controls the
light intensities. The red indicator light will
illuminate while any button is pressed,
indicating that the battery is good.
Preset Memory Feature
Your remote control receiver is equipped
with a preset memory feature. The receiv-
er will remember the light intensity and fan
speed when the light and fan are turned off
from the wall switch. When the wall switch
is turned back on, the lights and fan will
resume operation as they were prior to the
switch being turned off.
Installation of Battery
1. Remove the battery cover and install
four AAA alkaline batteries (not sup-
plied), oriented as shown in the
diagram in the battery compartment.
(Figure 1).

be set on one of 16 possible code combi-
nations. The four levers (numbered 1, 2, 3,
and 4) on the switches are factory-set in
the ON (up) position. Do not use this
setting. Change the switch settings as
follows:
1. On the remote control transmitter,
locate the code switch just above the
battery compartment (Figure 1).
Figure 1

2. Slide the four switch levers on the code
switch 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.
3. In the receiver (Figure 1), slide the four
switch levers to the same positions as
set in the transmitter. Make sure the
levers on both switches are in the same
positions, otherwise the fan will not
operate.
4. Position the battery in the transmitter
battery compartment and replace the
battery cover.
CEILING FAN
PROCEDURES
Electrical Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a ground-
ed electrical supply line of 120 volts AC,
60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored
and capable of withstanding a load of at
least 50 pounds.
5
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or personal injury, mount fan
to outlet box marked “Acceptable for
Fan Support”, and use screws sup-
plied with outlet box. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for support of
light fixtures are not acceptable for
fan support and may need to be
replaced. Consult a qualified electri-
cian if in doubt.
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not suffi-
cient. To avoid possible electrical
shock, be sure electricity is turned off
at the main fuse or circuit breaker
box before wiring. All wiring must be
in accordance with National and Local
codes and the ceiling fan must be
properly grounded as a precaution
against possible electrical shock.
!WARNING
How to Assemble Your
Ceiling Fan
1. Place the motor housing assembly on a
flat surface with the top of the motor
facing upwards. Place the upper glass
over the motor housing assembly,
aligning the slots in the upper glass
with the mounting holes in the housing
flange (Figure 2). Install three 8-32 x
15mm screws, flat washers, and rubber
washers (supplied) to secure the
assembly.
2. Place the motor housing/upper glass
assembly onto the lower foam pad with
the bottom of the motor facing you. The
lower pad serves as a holder for the fan
during the first stages of assembly.

through the holes in the motor coupling
and the holes in the downrod. Be sure
to push the straight leg of the hairpin
clip through the hole near the end of
the clevis pin until the curved portion of
the hairpin clip snaps around the clevis
pin. The hairpin clip must be properly
installed to prevent the clevis pin from
working loose. Pull up on the downrod
to make sure the clevis pin is properly
installed.
4. Remove and discard the three shipping
retainers securing the motor hub in the
motor housing.
