TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, ENSURE ELECTRICITY HAS
BEEN TURNED OFF AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX BEFORE
BEGINNING.
ALL WIRING MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL AND LOCAL
ELECTRICAL CODES. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SHOULD BE PERFORMED
BY A QUALIFIED LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE, DO
NOT USE THIS FAN WITH ANY SOLID-STATE FAN-SPEED CONTROL
DEVICE. IT WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, USE ONLY THE
SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.
THE OUTLET BOX AND SUPPORT STRUCTURE MUST BE SECURELY
MOUNTED AND CAPABLE OF RELIABLY SUPPORTING A MINIMUM OF
35 LB (15.9 KG). USE ONLY UL-LISTED OUTLET BOXES MARKED “FOR FAN
SUPPORT.”
THE FAN MUST BE MOUNTED WITH A MINIMUM OF 6’11’’(2.1M) FROM
THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE BLADES TO THE FLOOR.
AVOID PLACING OBJECTS IN THE PATH OF THE BLADES.
TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE FAN AND OTHER
ITEMS, BE CAUTIOUS WHEN WORKING AROUND OR CLEANING THE
FAN.
DO NOT USE WATER OR DETERGENTS WHEN CLEANING THE FAN
OR FAN BLADES. A DRY DUST CLOTH WILL BE SUITABLE FOR MOST
CLEANING.
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.
ALL SET SCREWS MUST BE CHECKED AND RE-TIGHTENED WHERE
NECESSARY BEFORE INSTALLATION.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK
AND PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” WITH THE SCREWS PROVIDED WITH
THE OUTLET BOX.
WARNING: TO AVOID RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DO NOT BEND THE
BLADE ARMS (ALSO REFERRED TO AS FLANGES) OR THE BRACKETS
WHILE BALANCING THE BLADES OR CLEANING THE FAN. DO NOT
INSERT FOREIGN OBJECTS BETWEEN ROTATING FAN BLADES.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK
AND PERSONAL INJURY, MOUNT FAN TO OUTLET BOX MARKED
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” OF 35 LB (15.9 KG) OR LESS”
AND USE MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE OUTLET BOX.
MOST OUTLET BOXES COMMONLY USED FOR THE SUPPORT OF
LIGHT FIXTURES ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND MAY
NEED TO BE REPLACED. DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THIS FAN, A
QUALIFIED LICENSED ELECTRICIAN IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR
INSTALLATION.

Making the Electrical Connections
•
•
Read all safety information and installation instructions before
you begin to install the fan and save instructions.
All set screws of the fan must be checked and re-tightened
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 the fan. Do not insert foreign objects between
rotating fan blades.
Before changing the fan direction, turn off 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 cannot be built into this product. These factors must be
supplied by the person(s) installing, caring for and operating
the fan.
WARNING: To avoid risk of electric shock, be sure to shut off
power at the main fuse or circuit breaker box before installing
To reduce the risk of injury, install the fan so that the blades are
at least 6’ 11’’ (2.1M) above the floor and at least 30’’ (76cm)
from the tip of the blades to the wall.

ASSEMBLY
Remove 1 of the 2 screws from the bottom
of the hanger bracket and loosen the other
one half a turn from the screw head. Slide
the canopy up towards the hanger bracket
and place the key hole on the canopy over
the screw on the hanger bracket, then turn
canopy until it locks in place at the narrow
section of the key holes. Align the circular
hole on the canopy with the remaining
hole on the hanger bracket, secure with
previously removed hanger bracket screw,
and tighten both hanger bracket screws
securely (Fig. 10).
Push up the canopy cover until the screw
heads engage to the slots on the canopy
cover, and rotate the canopy cover until it
is attached to the bottom of the canopy
securely (Fig. 10).
Attach the fan blades to the blade bracket
by using three blade screws and fibre
washers. Tighten screws and fibre washers
securely. Repeat these steps for the
remaining blades (Fig. 11-3).
Remove all the blade bracket screws from
the fan motor assembly, including the
plastic blocks from the fan motor assembly.
Discard the plastic blocks (Fig. 12).
NOTE: Adjust the canopy screws as

OPERATION
Step 1: Turn off the AC power to all fans to begin the learning process
on any single fan.
Step 2: Restore power to only one fan at atime for
pairing; the rest remain off by use of your wall-mounted
power switch.
Step 3: After the AC power is on, do not press any other button on the
remote control before pressing the (FAN ON/OFF) button. Doing so
will cause the procedure to fail. Within 30 seconds of turning the fan’s
AC power ON, press and hold the button for 5 seconds to enter the
learning function.
Once the receiver has detectedthe set frequency, the light will blink
two times when the pairing is complete.
Step 4: Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 with each fan to ensure each fan can
be operated by the pairedremote only, and without interfering with
each other.
Remote Control Operation Instructions
WARNING: Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat up,
connect improperly, or dispose of used batteries in fire.
Do not recharge or mix batteries with used or other batt-
erytypes. Immediately remove used batteries.
WARNING:
a) The batteries shall be disposed of properly, including
keeping them away from children; and
b) Even used batteries may cause injury.
Install a 12 V batteryinto the remote control. Fasten the battery
cover screw after installation. To prevent damage to the remote
control, remove the battery if not used for long periods of time.
Learning Process
NOTE: Should you desire to install more than one fan in your
home, please install one by one by following the steps
below to ensure each fan can be operated individually:
