IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING—TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and
standards.
b) When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
CAUTION: The installation of a Big Ass Fan must be in accordance with the requirements specified in this installation manual
and with any additional requirements set forth by the national electric code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70-1999, and all local codes.
Code compliance is ultimately YOUR responsibility!
WARNING: The fan controllers contain high voltage capacitors that take time to discharge after removal of mains supply.
Before working on the fan controller, ensure isolation of mains supply from line inputs at the fan controller’s disconnect (L1,
L2/N, L3). Wait 3 minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or
death. NOTE: Darkened display LEDs are not an indication of safe voltage levels.
CAUTION: Exercise caution and common sense when powering the fan. Do not connect the fan to a damaged or hazardous
power source. Do not attempt to resolve electrical malfunctions or failures on your own. Contact Big Ass Fans at 1-877-BIG-
FANS if you have any questions regarding the electrical installation of this fan.
Suitable for use with solid-state speed controls.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, Big Ass Fans must be installed with Big Ass
Fan supplied controllers that are marked (on their cartons) to indicate the suitability with this model. Other parts cannot be
substituted.
CAUTION: When service or replacement of a component in the fan requires the removal or disconnection of a safety device,
the safety device is to be reinstalled or remounted as previously installed.
WARNING: Risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons during cleaning and user-maintenance! Disconnect the appliance
from the power supply before servicing.
