8. 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. 17. 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. 18. This allows you to set your heating
unit on a cooler setting without affecting your
comfort.

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan:
1. 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).
2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a
soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer
to minimise discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage
the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3. You can apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for additional protection and
enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has been permanently lubricated bearings.
IMPORTANT:
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX
BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION “MAKING ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS”.
