the warranty invalid. There is no other express warranty. Home Decorators Collection hereby disclaims any and all warranties, including but not
limited to those of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose to the extent permitted by law. The duration of any implied warranty which
cannot be disclaimed is limited to the time period as specified in the express warranty. Some states do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. The retailer shall not be liable for incidental, consequential, or special damages
arising out of or in connection with product use or performance except as may otherwise be accorded by law. Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives specific legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty supersedes all prior warranties. Shipping costs for any return of
product as part of a claim on the warranty must be paid by the customer.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, 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 fixtures may not be acceptable for fan
support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
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.
Hanger Bar
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
Outlet Box
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 fixture but no ceiling joist,
you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above
(available at any Home Depot store).

Operating Your Fan and Remote Control
Operating the fan
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.
Remote Control - Your fan is equipped with a remote control to operate
the 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 airflow creates a cooling effect.
This allows you to set your air conditioner on a higher setting without
affecting your comfort.
Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off of the
ceiling. This allows you to set your heating unit on a lower setting
without affecting your comfort.
Setting the code 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 fluorescent bulbs. Set the code switch to DIM
to allow for dimming of the lights.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING: Make sure the power is off before cleaning
your fan.
□□ 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 finish.
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.
Troubleshooting

□□
□□
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.
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.
