ABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT AND USE THE

MOUNTING SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE

Note: You may need a longer downrod to

maintain proper blade clearance when installing

on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle

allowable is 20°. If the canopy touches downrod,

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 in Figure 4 (available at any

Home Depot retailer).

REMEMBER to turn off the power. Follow the

steps below to hang your fan properly.

NOTE: This ceiling fan is supplied with two types

of hanging assemblies; the standard ceiling

installation using the downrod with ball and socket

mounting, and the "close-to-ceiling" mounting.

The "close-to-ceiling" mounting is recommended

in rooms with less than 8-foot ceilings or in areas

where additional space is desired from the floor to

the fan blades.

When using the standard downrod installation, the

distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan

blades will be approximately 12 inches. The

"close-to-ceiling" installation reduces the distance

from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to

approximately 9 inches.

Once you have decided which ceiling installation

you will use, proceed with the following

instructions. Where necessary, each section of the

instructions will note the different procedures to

follow for the two types of installation.

outlet box with the screws and washers

provided with your outlet box (Figure 14).

When using “close-to-ceiling” mounting, it is

important that the mounting bracket be level. If

necessary, use leveling washers (not included)

between the mounting bracket and the outlet

box. Note that the flat side of the mounting

bracket is toward the outlet box. (Figure 14)

WARNING

TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BE

SURE ELECTRICITY IS TURNED OFF AT THE

MAIN FUSE BOX BEFORE WIRING.

If you feel you do not have enough electrical

wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan

installed by a licensed electrician.

This remote control unit is equipped with 16 code

combinations to prevent possible interference

from or to other remote units. The frequency

switches on your receiver and transmitter have

been preset at the factory. Please recheck to make

sure the switches on the transmitter and the

receiver are set to the same position, any

combination of settings will operate the fan as

long as the transmitter and receiver are set to the

same position. (Figure 16).

Insert the receiver into the hanger bracket with

the flat side of the receiver facing the ceiling as

Figure 17.

(Fig. 18) Motor to receiver electrical

connections: Connect the black wire from the

fan to black wire marked "TO MOTOR L".

Connect the white wire from the fan to the

white wire marked "TO MOTOR N" from the

receiver. Connect the blue wire from the fan to

the blue wire marked "For Light" from the

receiver. Secure the wire connections with the

plastic wire connecting nuts provided.

(Figure 18) Receiver to house supply wires

electrical connections: Connect the black (hot)

wire from the ceiling to the black wire marked

"AC in L" from he receiver. Connect the white

(neutral) wire from the ceiling to the white wire

marked "AC in N" from the receiver. Secure

the wire connections with the plastic wire

connecting nuts provided.

(Figure 18) If your outlet box has a ground

wire (green or bare copper) connect it to the fan

ground wires; otherwise connect the hanger

bracket ground wire to the hanger bracket.

Secure the wire connection with a plastic nut

provided. After connecting the wires spread

them apart so that the green and white wires are

on one side of the outlet box and black and blue

wires are on the other side. Carefully tuck the

wire connections up into the outlet box.
