4. MOUNTING OPTIONS

Secure the outlet box directly to the building

structure. Use appropriate fasteners and

building materials. The outlet box and its

support must be able to fully support the

moving weight of the fan (at least 50 lbs). Do

not use plastic outlet boxes.

Figures 1,2 and 3 are examples of different

ways to mount the outlet box.

NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to

maintain proper blade clearance when

installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. (Fig. 3)

To hang your fan where there is an existing

fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need a

joist hanging bracket as shown in Fig 4.

( For Canadian Installation ONLY )

7. MAKE THE ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS

A safety support cable is provided to help prevent

the ceiling fan from failing, please install it as

follows.

Step 1. Attach the provided wood screw and

washers to the ceiling joist next to the mounting

bracket but do not tighten. (Fig. 11-1)

Step 2. Adjust the length of the safety cable to

reach the screw and washers by pulling the extra

cable through the cable clamp until the overall

length is correct, put the end of the cable back

through the cable clamp, forming a loop at the

end of the cable. Tighten the cable clamp

securely. Now, put the loop in the end of the

safety cable over the wood screw and under the

washer. Tighten the wood screw securely. See

Fig. 11-2

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock,

be sure the electricity is turned off at the main

circuit breaker or fuse box before wiring.

WARNING: If your house wires are different

colors than referenced in this manual, stop

immediately. A professional electrician is recom-

mended to determine proper wiring.

NOTE: The CoolTouch™ Control System 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 receiver are set to the same

position, any combination of setting will operate

the fan as long as each switch on the transmitter

and receiver are set to the same opposition.

(Fig. 12) Changing the order of switches on

each switch block, changes the operational

frequency.

Step 1. Insert the receiver into the mounting

bracket, with the flat toward the ceiling. (Fig. 13)

Step 2. Motor to Receiver Electrical Connec-

tions:

NOTE: Make all of the following connections

with “Wire Nut” connectors.

Connect the black wire from the fan to black

wire marded “TO MOTOR L” from the receiver.

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 Bottom Light” from the

receiver. Place a plastic wire nut on the end of

the Orange Wire coming from the receiver

marked “For Upper Light”. Your ceiling fan is not

equipped with a Upper Light. Secure all the wire

connections with the plastic wire nut provided.

cal Connections: Connect the black

(hot) wire from the ceiling to the black wire

marked "AC in L" from the 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 nuts provided. (Fig. 14)

Step 4. If your outlet box has a ground wire

(green or bare copper) connect it to the fan

ground wires. Secure the wire connection with

a plastic nut provided.

NOTE: Carefully tuck the wire connections up

into the outlet box. (Fig. 14)

NOTE: The transmitting unit must be installed

at a maximum distance of 30 feet from the

ceiling fan for proper signal transmission

between the transmitting unit and the fan’s

receiving unit.

WARNING: One last time, make sure the “Check

Tab” at the bottom of the hanger bracket is prop-

erly seated in the “Registration Slot” on the side

of the hanger ball before attaching the canopy to

the bracket. Failure to properly seat the “Check

Tab” could damage the electrical wires when the

ceiling fan blade direction is changed while the

fan is running.

Step 1. Make sure all of the electrical connec-

tions are tucked neatly into ceiling outlet box.

Step 2. Slide the canopy up to ceiling fan and

onto the two screws on hanger bracket. Rotate

the canopy clockwise and tighten the two screws.
