8. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 2.13 m (7 ft.) fro
the floor and 76 cm (30 in.) from any wall or obstruction.
9. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fa
blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable
for most cleaning.
10. After making the electrical connections, spliced conducto
should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into outlet box.
The wires should be spread apart with the ground wire and white
(common) wire to one side with the black (load) wire to the other
side of the outlet box.
11. Electrical diagrams are reference only.Light kits that are n
packed with the fan must be ETL Listed and marked suitable
for use with the model fan you are installing. Switches must
be ETL General Use Switches. Refer to the Instructions
packaged with the light kits and switches for proper assembly.
SAFETY RULES
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, insure electricity ha
been turned o at the circuit breaker or fuse box before
beginning.
2. All wiring must be in accordance with the Nation
Electrical Code and local electrical codes. Electrical
installation should be performed by a qualified licensed
electrician.
3. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, use
only the control provided with the fan.
4. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
Personal Injury, mount directly to a structural framing
member or to an outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan
Support of 15.9kg(35 lbs)or less”. For outlet box mounting,
use mounting screws provided with the outlet box.
5. To operate the reverse function on this fan, press th
reverse button while the fan is running.
6. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blade
7. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and oth
items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the
fan.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn’t an existing UL (cUL for Canadian Installation) listed
mounting box, then read the following instructions. Disconnect the
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.
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,
NOTE: : You must use 12” or longer downrod for 30° slope (max
angle 30°). (Fig. 3)
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)

Step5. Slip the coupling cover, canopy hole cover and canopy onto the
downrod. Carefully reinstall the hanger ball onto the downrod. Make
sure the cross pin is in the correct position and the set screw is tight
and the wires are not twisted . ( Fig. 9)
Step 4. Carefully feed the fan wires and safety cable up through the downrod.
Thread the downrod onto the motor coupling until the cross pin holes are
aligned. Next, replace the cross pin and clip, and tighten both set screws. (Fig. 8)

WARNING:
. Now lift the motor body into position and place the hanger ball into the
hanger bracket. Rotate until the "Check Tab" has dropped into the "Registration Slot "
and seats firmly. The entire motor body should not rotate if this is done correctly.
(Fig. 12)
Failure to properly seat the "Check Tab" can damage the ceiling fan during
operation.
Step 2. Remove one of the two shoulder screws in the mounting bracket,and keep for
use on Page 12 Step 2. Loosen the second shoulder screw without fully removing it.
(Fig. 11)
HANGING THE FAN
REMEMBER to turn o the power before you begin installation. This is necessary
for your safety and also the proper programming of the control system.To properly
install your ceiling fan, follow the steps below.
Step 1. Before attaching fan to outlet box (not included), ensure the outlet box is
securely fastened to at least two points to a structural ceiling member (a loose box
will cause the fan to wobble). Pass the 120 volt supply wires from the ceiling outlet
box through the center of the ceiling mounting bracket. Install mounting bracket to
outlet box in ceiling using the screws and washers included with the outlet box. (Fig.10)

NOTE:
INSTALLATION OF SAFETY SUPPORT
(required for Canadian installation ONLY)
A safety support cable is provided to help prevent the ceiling fan from faIling, please
install it as follows.
Drive a wood screw and washers into the side of the brace that holds the outlet
box. Leave 3mm (1/8") of space between the support brace and the washer. (Fig. 13)
Insert the safety cable through the mounting bracket and one of the holes in the
outlet box into the ceiling. 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. (Fig. 14)
Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations only.
It’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.

CONTROL SYSTEM SET-UP
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Restore power to ceiling fan and test for proper operation (Fig. 31)
1. Fan Control: To start the fan. Press the selected speed button to run the fan at the
desired speed: Hi-high speed; MED-medium speed; LOW-low speed; Press the "FAN
OFF" button to turn o the fan.
2. Light button: Press once to turn the light on or o. Continuous pressure on the light
button dims light in a continuous cycle from light to dark, or dark to light.
3. REV button: Controls direction, forward or reverse.
4. If your ceiling fan has fluorescent lighting, please slide the switch to “O” position. If
the ceiling fan has incandescent or halogen lighting or LED, please slide the switch to
“D” position.
Step 1. After installation is complete, press the LEARN button for 3 seconds within 30
seconds once AC power is turned on. Fan will turn on at medium speed and light (if installed)
will turn on. This confirms that the SMART SYNC setting is active and ok. (Fig. 31）
Step 2. If you cannot finish the setting within the 30 seconds time frame, the main power
must be turned o and re-started again. This will repeat step 1 until the LEARN feature is
activated as indicated.

Problem
Fan will not start.
Fan sounds noisy.
Fan wobble.
Solution
1.Check circuit fuses or breakers.
2.Check all electrical connections to ensure 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 o.
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 a wall mounted variable speed control(s). They are not compatible with ceiling
fan motors or remote controls.
7.Make sure the upper canopy has 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.If the blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side) blades can redistribute the
weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
