1. Safety Rules
For operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting information, visit modernforms.com/help.
1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been
turned o at the circuit breaker before beginning.
2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical
Code “ANSI/NFPA 70” and local electrical codes. Electrical
installation should be performed by a licensed electrician.
3. To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, personal injury or
damage to the fan or other items, the outlet box and support
structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably
supporting a minimum of 35 Ibs (15.9 kg). Use only UL/cUL
listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
Use only the screws and washers provided with the outlet box.
4. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. (2.1m)
clearance from the trailing edge of the fan blades to the oor
and a minimum of 1.5 ft (0.5m) from the edge of the fan blades
to the surrounding walls.
5. Never place objects in the path of the fan blades.
6. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items,
please be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.
7. To avoid electrical shock or damage to the motor or nish,
do not use water or chemicals when cleaning the fan or fan
blades. A dry cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable
for most cleaning.
8. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should
be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box.
The wires should be spread apart with the grounded
conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one
side of the outlet box, and the ungrounded conductor on the
other side of the outlet box.
9. All set screws must be checked and re-tightened where
necessary before installation.

Summer Mode
(counter-clockwise): A downward airow creates
a cooling eect (FIG.16). This allows you to set your air conditioner
on a warmer setting without aecting your comfort.
Winter Mode
(clockwise): An upward airow moves warm air o the ceiling area
and redistributes the warm air that hovers around the ceiling to the
living space. This should allow for savings on heating costs (FIG.17).
