MOUNTING OPTIONS
Two Mounting Options
Downrod Mount
Angled Ceiling Mount (Up to 16 degrees)
Choose one of the following mounting options:
Downrod Mount is best suited for ceilings 8 ft. or higher. For taller ceilings you may want to use a longer
downrod (not included).
Angled Ceiling Mount is best suited for angled or vaulted ceilings. A longer downrod is sometimes necessary
to ensure proper blade clearance from the ceiling. If using the angle mount, check to ensure the ceiling angle is
not steeper than 16°.

READ ALL SAFETY INFORMATION AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN INSTALLING THE
FAN AND SAVE INSTRUCTIONS.
This fan is intended for indoor or damp locations. It is not suitable for outdoor locations.
All set screws of the fan must be checked and retightened where necessary before installation.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackets, balancing
the blades or cleaning fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.
Before changing the fan direction, turn o the fan and wait for the fan blades to stop completely.
The safeguards provided by these safety instructions and by the separate installation instructions are not
meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common
sense, caution and care are factors which can not be built into this product. These factors must be supplied
by the person(s) installing, caring for and operating the fan.
The fan weight is Net Weight: 12.28 lb (5,57kg). Be sure the outlet box (not included) is securely attached
to the building structure and is marked “Acceptable For Fan Support”. Failure to do so can result in serious
injury.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
WARNING:
To avoid risk of electric shock, be sure to shut o power at the main fuse or circuit breaker box before
installing or servicing this xture. Turning o the electrical power by using the light switch is not
sucient to prevent electrical shock.
To reduce the risk of injury, install the fan so that the blades are at least 7 feet (2.1 Meters) above the
oor and at least 18 inches (0.5 Meters) from the tip of the blades to the wall.
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “acceptable for
fan support” and use mounting screws provided with the outlet box.
The installation has to be in accordance with the national electrical code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and
local codes. If you are unfamiliar with the methods of installing electrical wiring, seek the services of a
qualied licensed electrician.
Using a full-range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a loud humming noise from the fan. To
reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do NOT use a full-range dimmer switch to control the fan speed.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
At least twice each year, lower the canopy to check the downrod assembly, and then tighten all screws on the fan.
Clean the motor housing with only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. Clean the blades
with a lint-free cloth.
Important: Shut o the main power supply before you begin any maintenance tasks. Do not use water or a damp
cloth to clean the ceiling fan.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Using a ceiling fan will allow you to raise your
thermostat setting in summer and lower your
thermostat setting in winter without feeling a dierence
in your comfort.
In warmer weather, push the reverse switch left which
will result in downward airow creating a wind chill
eect.
In cooler weather, push the reverse switch right
which will result in upward airow that can help move
stagnant, hot air o the ceiling area.
Important: Wait for the fan to stop before moving the
reverse switch. The reverse switch must be set either
completely left or right in order for the fan to function
correctly. If the reverse switch is set in the middle
position, the fan will not operate.
2. The fan pull chain has four positions to control fan
speed. One pull is HIGH, two is MEDIUM, three is LOW
and four turns the fan OFF.
