Move ground wires (a), outlet box wires (b), and
motor wires (c) away from the center of the hanger
bracket. Then slide receiver through hanger
bracket as shown. Antenna end first, until it is
it is placed in the center. Finally, cut motor
wires (c) to length needed for connections.
Code example:
1-ON 2-OFF 3-ON 4-OFF on both SUR
Switches.
Note: If you have two ceiling fans
with 2 remote control units, set 2
different codes for each set of
transmitter / receiver.
Both the transmitter and receiver have a 4-key
unit code on each SUR Switch (Fig.8) and by
default, all keys are pre-set to the "off" position.
This means that the transmitter and receiver are
already paired together. However, if you have
multiple fans and remote controls and want to
avoid interference between them, you can "pair"
other transmitters and receivers together by
adjusting the SUR switches, so the same
numbered keys are in the "ON" position
on both (Fig.8a).
Note: The ceiling fan may work abnormally
if there is interference from other remote
controls.

Troubleshooting Guide
If you have difficulty operating your new ceiling fan, it may be the result of incorrect assembly, installation
or wiring. In some cases, these installation errors may be mistaken for defects. If you experience any
faults, please check this Troubleshooting Guide. If a problem cannot be remedied or you are
experiencing difficulty in installation, please call our Customer Service Department (1-800-482-9235).
PROBLEM
1. If fan does not start:
2. If fan sounds noisy:
3. If fan wobbles:
4. If light does not work:
1. Check main and branch circuit fuses or circuit breakers.
2. Make sure forward/reverse switch is firmly in left or right position. Fan will not
operate when switch is in the middle.
3. Check line wire connections to fan and switch wire connections in switch
housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off.
4. Make sure that the wall control is turned "ON".
1. Make sure all screws in motor housing are snug. (not too tight)
2. Make sure the screws which attach the fan blade bracket to the motor are tight.
3. Make sure wire connectors in switch housing are not rattling against each
other or against the interior wall of the switch housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off before accessing switch
housing.
4. Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from Solid State variable speed controls.
DO NOT USE a Solid State variable speed control.
5. Allow "break-in" period of 24 hours. Most noises associated with a new fan will
disappear after this period.
All blades are weighed and grouped by weight. Natural woods vary in density
which could cause the fan to wobble even though all blades are weight-matched.
The following procedures should eliminate most of the wobble. Check for wobble
after each step.
1. Check that all blades are screwed firmly into blade brackets.
2. Check that all blade brackets are tightened securely to motor.
3. Make sure that canopy and mounting bracket are tightened securely to ceiling
junction box and junction box is mounted firmly to ceiling joist.
4. Most fan wobble problems are caused when blades are not equally level. To
check the blade levels, select a point on the ceiling above the tip of any blade.
Measure the distance from the ceiling to the blade tip, to an accuracy of 1/8
inch. Rotate the blades until the next blade is in the measuring position. Repeat
measurement for each blade. If all blade levels are not equal, you can adjust
blade levels by the following procedure. To adjust a blade tip down, insert a
washer (not supplied) between the blade and blade bracket at the screw
closest to the motor. To adjust a blade tip up, insert washer (not supplied)
between the blade and blade bracket at the two screws farthest from the motor.
5. If blade wobble is still noticeable, interchanging two adjacent (side by side)
blades can redistribute the weight and possibly result in smoother operation.
1. Check blue wire from fan to make sure it is connected to hot wire from house.
2. Check for loose or disconnected wires in fan switch housing.
3. Check for loose or disconnected wires in light kit.
4. Check for faulty LED module.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is turned off before accessing switch housing.
SUGGESTED REMEDY
5. If fan and light kit
do not work:
1. Replacing the battery of transmitter.
2. Re-pair the transmitter and receiver by holding the "FAN OFF" button on
the transmitter according to the manual.

DYNAMIC BLADE BALANCING KIT
PREFACE
Your ceiling fan may sometimes have wobbling problems when operating due to irregularity in the
blades or the blade brackets. Improper assembly in the mounting system may cause some additional
problems. This balancing kit can be used to fix wobbling problems.
DYNAMIC BLADE BALANCING KIT FOR CEILING FANS
1. Make sure that all blades are firmly screwed into the blade brackets.
2. Make sure that all blade brackets are firmly secured to the motor housing.
3. By looking up at the fan from below, check and be certain that none of the blade brackets are bent
and that none of the blades are out of position.
4. Use a yardstick to check the blade tracking. Put the yardstick up against the ceiling vertically and
against the outside leading edge of a blade. Note the distance of the edge of blade to the ceiling.
Carefully turn the blades slowly by hand to check the remaining blades. All distances should be
the same.
Operate the fan ten minutes. After following all the steps and if the wobbling problem is not solved, a
dynamic balancing needs to be done with balancing kit. Follow the procedure listed below:
stic clip located
halfway between the blade bracket and the blade tip on the edge of the blade.
Caution: The plastic clip should be placed on the windward edge of the blade for fear of
clip flying off.
wobble most). Observe if the wobble is better or
worse. Turn the fan off and move the clip to the next blade. Do the same for all blades and note
on which blade the clip reduces the wobble most. Place the clip on the blade which showed the
most improvement. Move the clip inward and outward on this blade and operate the fan to find
the position where the clip gives the most improvement.
Caution: Stay clear of the blades. If the clip, for any reason, is not secure, injury could result .
weight on the top of the blade, on its centerline and
as close as possible to the clip. Peel the paper off of the back of the weight and press firmly to
ensure that it is securely attached to the blade. Remove the clip.
Caution: Clean the surface of fan blade before placing the balancing weight so that the
balancing weight will be firmly attached to it.
