2. WARNING: This fixture is intended for installation in
accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and
all local code specifications. If you are not familiar with
code requirements, installation by a certified electrician
is recommended.
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. WARNING: Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries
away from children. This remote contains a lithium
button cell battery. If a new or used lithium button/
coin cell battery is swallowed or enters the body, it can
cause severe internal burns and can lead to death in as
little as 2 hours. Always completely secure the battery
compartment. If the battery compartment does not
close securely, stop using the product, remove the
batteries, and keep it away from children. If you think
batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside

7. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.
8. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items,
be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
9. Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum
clearance of 7 feet from the blades to the floor and at least 30
inches from the ends of the blades to any obstruction.
10. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan
blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be
suitable for most cleaning.
11. After making the electrical connections, spliced conductors
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.
12. Electrical diagrams are for reference only. Light kits that
are not 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.

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 o 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 dierent 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)

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 the 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. 5)
Step 2. Remove the hairpin and clevis pin from the downrod assembly, retain
for later use. Remove the hanger ball from the downrod assembly by loosening
set screws, removing the cross pin, and twisting ball o the rod.( Fig. 6)
NOTE: Make sure to keep loosened hardware separate to avoid confusion
during installation.
Step 3. Loosen the two set screws on the motor coupling. (Fig. 7)

HANGING THE FAN (continued)
Step 3. Carefully feed fan wires and safety cable up through the downrod.
Thread the downrod onto the motor coupling until the clevis pin holes are
aligned. Next, replace the clevis pin and hairpin, then tighten both set screws.
(Fig. 8)
Step 4. 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 5. Now lift the motor body into position and place the hanger ball into
the mounting bracket. Rotate until the "Check Tab" has dropped into the
"Registration Slot " and seats firmly. (Fig. 10) The entire motor body should
not rotate if this is done correctly.
WARNING: Failure to properly seat the "Check Tab" can damage the ceiling
fan during operation.

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. 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. 11)
Step 2.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. 12)
NOTE: Although the safety support cable is required for Canadian installations
only. It’s a good idea to make the attachment with any installation.
