Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.2. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from the one the receiver is connected to.• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.3. For use only with electrically reversible ceiling fans rated at 1.0 amp or less, and fan incandescent light kits rated at 300 watts or less. 4. Not for use with shaded-pole motors, Hunter 42” Low Prole fans, and Hunter Baseball fans. Not recommended for use with the Hunter Original®. For Hunter Original® series fans, use Hunter control model numbers 27187, 22691, or 27189.5. Medium and Low fan speeds are determined by the control and thus may vary from the factory settings due to normal motor variations.6. For use with Hunter Hanging Systems (excludes Hunter Original) on at ceilings or angled ceilings with a pitch up to 34°.7. Not for use in applications where the fan does not have a wall switch. Any changes or modications to this equipment not expressly approved by Hunter Fan Company will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Do not use the pull chain to change the fan speed after installation, as damage to your ceiling fan or universal control may result. The speed of the fan should only be changed by the Hunter control.2. Set the ceiling fan light kit to the ON position before installation. The light level should only be changed by the Hunter control. Installation Instructions:1. Disconnect power to the ceiling fan and light kit at the main electrical panel. Remove fuse or move circuit breaker to the OFF position.2. IMPORTANT! Before installing this control, check the factory default DIP switch settings. Refer to Figure 1. Be sure the DIP switch positions of the transmitters and receiver match, or the ceiling fan will not function. Select different combinations of dip switches to prevent mis-operation due to other remote control fans.3. IMPORTANT! If your ceiling fan light kit is using incandescent bulbs, then slide the CFL / INC switch to the INC position. If your ceiling fan light kit is using compact uorescent light bulbs (CFL), then slide the CFL / INC switch to the CFL position. NOTE: When the switch is in the CFL position, the dimming feature is disabled, and you will not be able to dim the light bulbs. This feature is to protect both your bulbs and your receiver as CFL bulbs are not able to dim and will malfunction if dimming is attempted.Dip SwitchesSet to 01110Dip SwitchesSet to 01001Dip SwitchesSet to 01110Dip SwitchesSet to 01001Receiver TransmitterExample DIP Switch SettingsDIP SwitchesSet to 0111DIP SwitchesSet to 0111Figure 1Transmitter DIP SwitchesCFL     INCFigure 2Receiver DIP SwitchesFigure 3

Connect receiver to ceiling fan according to the mounting types shown on the next page. Determine your ceiling fan mounting type from the images on Pages 5-6. Most installations will be one of these ve types.5. If the fan is already installed, turn the power OFF at the main electrical panel. Reverse the installation procedure according to the fan instructions, to the point of disconnecting the fan wiring. Connect the receiver to the ceiling fan according to the mounting type as shown on Pages 5-6. NOTE: Some fans may have considerable excess lead wire. For easier canopy installation, cut the excess wire leaving a minimum of 6 inches  remaining. Restrip the fan lead wires 1/2 inch. Place remaining excess wire into the ceiling electrical box as needed. Canopy Hanger (Figure 4): Place receiver in canopy. Connect wiring as shown in Figure 4. Extend antenna through one of the ceiling plate openings (approximately 3–6˝).Low Prole Style I (Figure 5): Secure receiver to the fan plate above the motor with UL listed cable ties (not included). Connect wiring as shown in Figure 5. Extend antenna through one of the ceiling plate openings (approximately 3–6˝).Low Prole Style II (Figure 6): Secure receiver to the ceiling mounting bracket with UL listed cable ties (not included). Connect wiring as shown in Figure 6. Extend antenna above the ceiling mounting bracket (approximately 3–6˝).Cable Tie Routing for Low Prole Fans (Figs.5-6): Insert cable tie through openings as shown.
