Trouble Shooting Tips - Light
 Light will not turn on - Make sure globe has not blown and it is properly fitted
between the metal prongs. Check all light wires in the light kit, the terminal block
in the canopy cover and the wall switch have been connected together correctly.
 Light is not responding to remote control- Make sure globe has not blown
and it is properly fitted between the metal prongs. Check all light wires in the
light kit, the terminal block in the canopy cover and the wall switch has been
connected together correctly. Check dip switch settings in remote hand piece
and remote receiver correspond.
 Light wires appear to be missing or too short - Wires may be stuck in the
motor housing. Carefully pull wires out of the motor housing being careful not to
damage or strip the wires going to the motor windings as this may cause the fan
to short.
 Light flickers or flashes - Check globe is secured between the metal prongs in
the light kit. Make sure you are using the globes specified. Compact fluorescent
globes may not be compatible with dimmer style remote controls (use energy
saving encapsulated halogen types instead).
