Operation
□ Remove the battery cover by pressing rmly on the arrow and
sliding the cover off.
□ Install two 1.5V AAA batteries (OO) (included).
□ Replace the battery cover on the remote control (M).
PREPARING THE TRANSMITTER
NOTE: Batteries will weaken with age and should be
replaced before leaking takes place as this will damage
the remote control. Dispose of used batteries properly
and keep them out of the reach of children.
The learning process causes any installed fan within range to
memorize a remote control. Fans can learn ve remotes.
To add a remote to your fan’s memory, use the steps below:
□ Ensure AC power to the fan is OFF to begin the learning
process.
□ Slide the dip switch in the battery compartment to the "1"
position.
□ Turn the fan’s AC power ON.
□ Within 60 seconds of turning AC power on, press and release the
" Pairing" button located in the remote's battery compartment
to enter the learning function. Once the fan has detected the
remote controls's frequency, the down light of your fan, if
applicable, will blink, and the fan blades will start to spin.
□ The fan will now accept commands from the added remote.
LEARNING PROCESS
NOTE: If installing multiple fans on separate remotes,
only the fan being programmed should have AC power
turned ON. All other fans, even if they have already
been programmed, should have AC power OFF so they
do not memorize other remotes during the learning
process. Separate the fan power switches by
approximately 2 meters.
NOTE: The dip switch in the battery compartment has
been set on “0” position and paired for your
convenience. If you have two or more fans, please
follow steps below to control each fan independently.

as the room size, ceiling height, numbers of fans.
Warm weather - (Counterclockwise Direction) A downward air flow
creates a cooling effect. This allows you to set your air conditioner
on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Clockwise Direction) An upward air flow moves
warm air off the ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on
a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.
NOTE: The fan reverse buttons must be pressed while the
fan is running.

Care and Cleaning
Troubleshooting
□ Check the support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure.
Because of the fan’s natural movement, some
connections may become loose over time. It is not
necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
□ Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or
lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. The plating is
sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or
tarnishing.
□ (Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood
blades.
□ (Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of
shoe polish.

□ Use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor,
or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
□ Apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has
permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Solution
Solution
□ Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.
□ Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.
□ Check to make sure the frequency switches from the remote control and receiver are set to the same
frequency.
□ Reset the transmitter by going through the transmitter “LEARNING PROCESS”.
□ Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.
□ Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade arm to the motor hub are tight.
□ Make sure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch
housing.
□ Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this
time.
□ If using the ceiling light kit, make sure the screws securing are tight. Check that the light bulb is also
secure.
□ Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy. It should not touch the ceiling.
□ Make sure your ceiling box is secure and that rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting
bracket and outlet box.
The fan will not start.
The fan sounds noisy.

Solution
Solution
□ Do not connect the fan with wall mounted variable speed control(s).
□ Make sure the frequency switches are set correctly.
□ Reset the transmitter by going through the transmitter “LEARNING PROCESS”.
□ This is normal start-up procedure for DC motor fans. The partial movement during start-up is the result
of the DC motor aligning the internal magnetic poles for proper motor operation. This design saves
electricity and allows the fan to operate much quieter than standard AC motor fans.
The fan wobbles.
The remote control is
not working.
Fan moves backwards and
forwards when turned on.
□
Verify that all blades and blade bracket screws are secure (most fan wobble problems are caused by
loose parts). Once the fan is properly installed, run the ceiling fan for 10 minutes to let the fan
self-adjust.
If wobble occurs after running the fan for 10 minutes, verify blade level using the following process:
- Select a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades, then select any fan blade and
measure from the center of the selected blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next
blade is positioned and repeat the measurement using the same point from the ceiling for every blade.
Measurement deviations should be within 1/8 in..
- If all deviations are less than 1/8 in. and the fan continues to wobble, please call Customer Service
(1-800-986-3460) to order a complimentary Blade Balancing Kit.
- If deviation is greater than 1/8 in. , please call Customer Service (1-800-986-3460) to order
complimentary replacements of your brackets.
