1. Safety Rules
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 the National Electrical Code
“ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation
should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and
capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less. Use
only cUL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”
The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft. (2.1m) clearance 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 or lightly dampened 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 ungrounded conductor on the
other side of the outlet box.
All set screws must be checked and retightened where necessary before
installation.
Suitable for use with solid-state speed control.

Making the Electrical
Connections
If you feel you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
This remote control unit is equipped with 16 code
combinations to prevent possible interference
from or to other remote units. The frequency
switches on your receiver and remote control have
been preset at the factory. Please recheck to make
sure the switches on the remote control and the
receiver are set to the same position. Any
combination of settings will operate the fan as long
as the switches in the remote control and receiver
are set to the same position. (Figure 9)
TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BE
SURE ELECTRICITY IS TURNED OFF AT THE
MAIN FUSE BOX BEFORE WIRING.
NOTE
NOTE
FAN MUST BE INSTALLED AT A MAXIMUM
DISTANCE OF 20 FEET FROM THE
