Cord safety
If the external flexible cable or cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be
exclusively replaced by Big Ass Fans or a Big Ass Fans service agent or a similar

Emergency lighting testing
Test emergency lighting as described in
NFPA 101: Life Safety Code.
Keep written
records of testing and make sure inspections are performed regularly.
Monthly.
Conduct a 30-second emergency lighting test. Press and hold the red,
illuminated button on top of the fixture for 30 seconds. Make sure half of the LEDs
operate at a dim level for the entire 30 seconds.
Annually.
Conduct a 90-minute emergency lighting test. Switch off AC power at
the circuit breaker to simulate a blackout. Make sure half of the LEDs operate at a
dim level for 90 minutes.
Cleaning the lenses
Do not clean the fixture—especially the lenses—with scouring pads, alkaline
cleaning substances, gasoline, thinner, benzene, heating oil, or polishing powder.
Do not pressure wash or use a water hose to clean the fixture.
Clean the lenses periodically to ensure optimal performance. Remove lenses
and wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Allow to dry thoroughly before replacing. If
necessary, use a mild soap or a gentle liquid cleaner.
