6InstallationMOUNTING OPTIONSWARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable for fan support of 50lbs. (22.7kg) or less”, and use screws provided with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of lighting xtures may not be acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a qualied electrician.If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting box, then install one using the following instructions: □Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off the circuit breakers. □Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure. Use the appropriate fasteners and materials. The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan (at least 50 lbs.). Do not use a plastic outlet box.The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the outlet box.If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decorative canopy bottom cover, and turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy to the mounting plate.To hang your fan where there is an existing xture but no ceiling joist, you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above(available at any Home Depot store).NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 30° away from horizontal.Outlet BoxOutlet BoxRecessedOutletBoxProvide StrongSupportCeilingMountingPlateOutlet BoxHanger Bar

12Operating Your Fan and Remote ControlRemote Control - Your fan is equipped with a remote control to operatethe speed and lights of your new ceiling fan. Speed setting for warm or cool weather depends on factors such as the room size, ceiling height, number of fans and so on. Warm weather - (Forward) A downward airow creates a cooling effect.This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting withoutaffecting your comfort.Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airow moves warm air off of theceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower settingwithout affecting your comfort.NOTE: Do not wait for the fan to stop before pressing the reverse button. The fan will not reverse direction if the fan is not moving.Setting the code on the remote control □Remove the battery cover by pressing rmly on the arrow and sliding the cover off. □Slide the code switches to your choice of either up or down. The factory setting is up. □Install a 12-V battery (included) □Replace the battery cover on the remote control.NOTE: This remote is equipped with 16 code combinations. To prevent possible interference from or to other remote units, such as garage door openers, car alarms, or security systems, simply change the combination code. The code switch marked ON/DIM is for dimming control of the lights: Set the code switch to ON to allow for no dimming of the lights such as for uorescent bulbs. Set the code switch to DIM to allow for dimming of the lights.1 2 34ONONDIM12V 23ADIP1 2 3 4O NONDIMNOTE: If using a light kit, the light switch located on the light kit should be at “ON” position before operating the remote control.Operating the fan

Once the receiver has detected the set frequency, the down light of your fan, if applicable, will blink twice. There is no indication if your fan is not equipped with a light. □To conrm the remote control and receiver have paired successfully press the “1” button on your remote control.NOTE: After the AC power is on, do not press any other button on the remote control before pressing the “FAN OFF” button (VV). Doing so will cause the procedure to fail.Remote control operationNOTE: The remote control can learn multiple receivers. Make sure no other receivers are operating during the learning process. Separate the fan power switches by approximately 2 meters.Light/Dimmer button (XX) = Press and release the button immedi-ately to turn on or turn off the light.

14TroubleshootingProblem SolutionThe fan will not start □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 the battery in the remote control. □Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet. □Remember to turn off the power supply before checking the dip switch settings.The fan is noisy □Ensure all motor housing screws are snug. □Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight. □Ensure 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 you are using the Ceiling Fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulbs are also secure. □Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling. □Ensure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the mounting plate and outlet box.The fan wobbles □Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure. □Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level by selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of the blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement, and measure from the same point on each blade to the ceiling. Repeat for each blade. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten minutes. If the fan continues to wobble please contact Home Decorators Collection Customer Service and a balacing kit will be sent to you at no charge. □Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling. □Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Do not use water when cleaning, as this could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. □You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish. □You do not need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.WARNING: Make sure the power is off before cleaning your fan.Care and Cleaning
