SAFETY RULES
1
1. Before you begin installing the fan, shut power off at the circuit breaker of the fuse box.
2. Be cautious! Read all instructions and safety information before installing your new fan. Review accompanying assembly diagrams.
3. Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, or National Electrical Codes. Hire a qualified electrician or consult a
do-it-yourself wiring handbook if you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
4. Make sure the installation site you choose allows the fan blades to rotate without any obstructions. Allow a minimum clearance of 7 feet from the
floor and 18 inches from the tip of the blades to the wall.
5. If you are mounting the fan to a ceiling fan outlet box, use a U.L. Listed metal octagonal outlet box marked "Acceptable for Fan Support". Secure the
box directly to the building structure. The outlet box and its support must be able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 pounds) Do
not use a plastic box.
6. Caution: To reduce the risk of injury use only the screws provided with the outlet box in conjunction with the lock washers provided with the fan.
7. If you are mounting the fan to a joist, make sure it is able to support the moving weight of the fan (at least 50 pounds).
8. After you install the fan, make sure that all mounting components are secured to prevent the fan from falling.
9. Do not insert anything into the fan blades while the fan is operating.
10. Turn the fan off and wait for the blades to stop completely before proceeding with maintenance or cleaning. SUITABLE FOR USE IN
WET LOCATIONS

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR OTHER PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN ONLY TO A U.L. LISTED OUTLET BOX OR SUPPORTING SYSTEM MARKED
ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX IN CONJUCTION WITH THE LOCK WASHERS PROVIDED WITH THE
FAN. MOST OUTLET BOXES COMMONLY USED FOR FAN SUPPORT OF LIGHTING FIXTURES ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND NEED TO BE REPLACED.
CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IF IN DOUBT.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE BLADE HOLDERS WHILE INSTALLING, BALANCING THE BLADES OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT
INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRONIC SHOCK, THIS FAN ONLY CAN USE MK668-90W0406BO LED only SOLID-STATE SPEED CONTROL WITH WCS213 WALL
CONTROL ONLY.

INSTALLING THE FAN
MOUNTING OPTIONS
If there isn't an existing 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.). Use a UL Listed metal outlet box. Do not use a plastic outlet box.
Figure 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different ways to mount the outlet box.
NOTE:
NOTE:
You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a
steep, sloped ceiling. Longer downrods are available from your Minka-Aire®dealer.
To hang your fan where there is an existing fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need to install
a hanger bar as shown in Fig. 4 (available at your Minka-Aire®dealer).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: The use of Dimming devices not compatible with ceiling
fans will cause unwanted behavior including loud humming and will
cause permanent damage to you fans electrical component.
WARNING:
WARNING:
To avoid possible electrical shock be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse or breaker box before wiring.
NOTE:
NOTE:
The Aire Control® System is equipped with a learning frequency
function which has 256 code combinations to prevent potential
interference from other remote units. The frequency on your Receiver
and Transmitter units have been preset at the factory. (Fig.
11) No
frequency change is necessary, should you desire to install another fan
within the same home or area with a seperate frequency code please
see the "frequency interference" troubleshooting section of this
instruction manual to learn how to change the frequency.
Step 1. Insert Receiver into Hanger Bracket with the flat side of the
Receiver facing the ceiling. (Fig. 12)
Step 2. Motor to Receiver Electrical Connections: Connect the WHITE wire
from the fan to the WHITE wire marked "TO MOTOR N" from the Receiver.
Connect the BLACK wire from the fan to the BLACK wire marked "TO
MOTOR L" from the Receiver. Connect the BLUE wire from the fan to the
BLUE wire marked "For Light" from the Receiver.
NOTE:
NOTE:
If your ceiling fan features an UP Light: Connect the ORANGE wire
from the fan to the ORANGE wire marked "For Up Light" from the Receiver.
Otherwise disregard this step and proceed to secure all wire connections
with the plastic wire nuts provided. (Fig. 13 & 14)
NOTE:
NOTE:
Fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 40 feet from the
transmitting unit for proper signal transmission between the transmitting
unit and the fan's receiving unit.

RECEIVER
HANGER BRACKET
Step 3. Receiver to House Supply Wires Electrical Connections:
Connect the WHITE wire (Neutral) from the outlet box to the WHITE
wire marked "AC in N" from the receiver. Connect the BLACK wire
(Hot) from the outlet box to the BLACK wire marked "AC in L" from
the receiver. Secure all wire connections with the plastic wire nuts
provided. (Fig. 13 & 14)
Step 4. If your outlet box has a GROUND wire (Green or Bare Copper)
connect this wire to the Hanger Ball and Hanger Bracket Ground
wires. If your outlet box does not have a Ground Wire, then connect
the Hanger Ball and Hanger Bracket Ground Wires together. Secure
wire connection with the plastic wire nut provided. (Fig. 13 & 14)
After all splices are made, check to make sure there are no loose
strands. As an additional precaution we suggest to secure the plastic
wire connectors to the wires with electrical tape.
