10. OPERATING YOUR    

       FAN

 

Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on 
factors such as the room size. Ceiling height, 
number of fans and so on.

NOTE:

 

To operate the reverse function on this fan, 

press the reverse button while the fan is running.

Warm weather - (Forward) A downward airflow 
creates a cooling effect as shown in Fig. 18. This 
allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer 
setting without affecting your comfort.

Cool weather - (Reverse) An upward airflow moves 
warm air off the ceiling area as shown in Fig. 19. 
This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler 
setting without affecting your comfort.

NOTE:

 If the self calibration test failed, turn the AC 

power off; restore power and process the self 
calibration test again.

NOTE:

 During self calibration test, the remote and 

the wall control are non-functional.

NOTE:

 The learning frequency function and self 

calibration test will continue to retain the last set 
frequency and calibration set even when the AC 
power is shut off. If the frequency is changed the 
self calibration test will occur again.

This receiver provides the following protective 
function:
1. Lock Rotor Position: The DC motor has a built-in 
safety against a stalled or locked rotor condition 
(stalled blade rotation). If there is an obstruction or 
fault with the motor, the current monitoring function 
will automatically turn power off to the motor after 30 
seconds. Remove the obstruction and turn the AC 
power off. Restore power and re-start fan motor.

2. Over 80W protection: When the receiver detects 
motor power consumption which is greater than 
80W, the receiver power will be stopped and 
operation will immediately discontinue. Wait for 5 
seconds and then turn the receiver power back on.
