Safety Considerations

Safety and the proper operation of your Casablanca

fan both require a thorough knowledge of the

product and proper installation; therefore, before

attempting to install and operate your Casablanca

fan, read this Owner’s Manual completely and

carefully. Retain this manual for future reference.

CAUTION:ÑRISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

Turn off all electricity at the circuit breaker

or fuse box before attempting any

installation procedure. Installation is to be

in accordance with the National Electrical

ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and local codes. If

you are unfamiliar with the wiring codes,

contact a qualified electrician. To avoid

overheating and possible damage to

other equipment, do not install control

to a receptacle, fluorescent light fixture,

operating appliance, or transformer-

supplied appliance.

This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply•

of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum of 15-amp

circuit. The maximum current required for the fan

with light fixture is 2.7 amps (322 watts). The fan

uses about 1.1 amps (132 watts). Maximum light

current is about 1.6 amps (190 watts) of lighting.

Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all•

bare wires are fully inserted into the metal wire

connectors inside the plastic wire nut covering.

When installing the canopy, light kit, and wall•

controls, make sure all wires are carefully

tucked away and that no wires are pinched.

The fan must be supplied with three•

independent 120V AC supply wires to provide

power for the fan, the light, and neutral.

WARNING:ÑTo reduce the risk of

personal injury or damage to the fan,

do not bend the blade brackets or insert

foreign objects in between the rotating fan

blades.

WARNING:ÑTo reduce the risk of fire or

electric shock, do not use this fan with any

solid-state control device. Use only the

control provided with or recommended for

this fan.

Structural Support

Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

If you do not have an existing fixture located where

you wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved

ceiling fixture outlet box must be installed and wired.

Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

After turning the power OFF at its source (either the circuit

breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect

the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure

it is marked “Approved for Ceiling Fan Mounting.” If it is

not, a new box must be installed. For new construction,

use an approved ceiling fixture outlet box with the rating

“50 lbs. or less”. Ensure that outlet box is mounted to a

joist or stud beam. If not, a 2x4 stud must be installed.

WARNING!ÑTo reduce the risk of fire,

electrical shock, or personal injury, mount

to outlet box marked “Acceptable Fan

Support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs.) or less” using

the mounting hardware provided with the

outlet box.

When to Use a Lag Screw

A lag screw is required under two conditions: the

fan weighs 36 lbs. or more or the existing ceiling

fixture outlet box needs to be modified for a ceiling

fan application (for example, you are replacing an

existing light fixture). We recommend that the ceiling

box be of sufficient capacity to support the weight

of the fan and light fixture under any conditions.

NOTE: The Continental weighs 47 lbs., so use

of a lag screw is required.

Mounting Guidelines

Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the

following helpful recommendations. Location,

fan size, and structural support are important

factors to consider before installation.

Location

Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every

room in your home. We suggest you follow

these mounting recommendations as you decide

where to install your Casablanca fan.

For safety reasons, the fan blades must•

be a minimum of 7’ above the floor.

Do not locate the fan in a doorway•

or above a swinging door.

In bedrooms, fans work best when•

mounted above the foot of the bed.

Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of•

clearance to avoid damage from pool cues.

In kitchens be sure to allow for open•

cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.

Do not install a fan close to or over a pool or spa.•

High humidity combined with corrosive gases

will destroy the finish and warp the blades.

Fan Size

Variable fan speed capability permits the use of

a full-size fan even in smaller rooms. For very

large rooms, two fans may be needed.

Continental™

Sloped Ceiling Installations

When to Use an Extension Downrod

For optimum performance and appearance, use

an extension downrod with your Casablanca

fan when installing on high (cathedral) ceilings

or sloped ceilings. Casablanca offers accessory

downrods in increments of 6" up to 5’. See your

Authorized Casablanca Dealer for details.

Calculation of Ceiling Angle

Use the tear-off Ceiling Angle Template card inserted

in this manual. It provides you with a simple “go” or

“no go” for installing your fan on a sloped ceiling.

NOTE: The fan may wobble or vibrate if the

downrod length is not long enough and the

inside blade is too close to the downslope or side

wall. Extending the downrod length usually will

solve this problem.

This slope is 32º. This is the

maximum slope that will allow the

fan to hang straight down. It is OK

to install your fan.

This slope is more than 32º. Your fan

will not hang straight down, so an

adaptor is necessary. Contact your

local Authorized Casablanca Dealer to

purchase a Sloped Ceiling Adapter.

Assembling

1Prepare the ceiling fixture outlet box for the lag screw

by removing the plug in the center. If the outlet box does

not have a plug, drill a ½-inch hole in the center of the

box. After drilling a hole in the outlet box, drill a ¼-inch

hole 3 inches deep into the joist used to support the fan.

Attaching the Crossbar Mounting Bracket

2To install the crossbar mounting bracket, route the

outlet box wires along side of the crossbar mounting

bracket. Attach the crossbar mounting bracket to the

outlet box with the set of two round-head screws and

washers. Use caution when installing the screws and

washers. Do not pinch the outlet box wires in the washers.

CAUTION:ÑTo reduce the risk of personal

injury, use only the mounting hardware

provided with an approved outlet box (not

included) to install the crossbar mounting

bracket.

3Pass the lag screw through the center hole in

the crossbar mounting bracket and the ceiling fixture

outlet box. Secure the lag screw into the guide hole in

the joist, tightening until the outlet box and mounting

bracket are mounted firmly to the support beam.

Attaching the Canopy

4To install the canopy hardware, set aside the

canopy hatch and one canopy hatch screw and lock

washer. You will install the canopy hatch in the next

section. Attach the canopy to the crossbar mounting

bracket with three of the canopy screws and lock

washers. Using the right-angle screwdriver provided,

tighten each screw until the canopy hardware is

mounted firmly to the crossbar mounting bracket.

NOTE: On a sloped ceiling, align the canopy

opening with the top or peak of the room.
