Dimensions indicated are the minimum 
allowable for proper installation.

 

CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK!  Installation is to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, 
ANSI/NFPA 70-1999, and local codes. If you are unfamiliar with the wiring codes, you should use a qualifi ed 
electrician.  To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not install control to a receptacle, 
fl uorescent light fi xture, motor-operated appliance, or transformer-supplied appliance.

•  This fan is designed to be installed on an existing electrical outlet box. The outlet box must be UL Listed for 

ceiling fan installations. If it is not, a new box must be installed. Casablanca extension downrods and Sloped 
Ceiling Adapters (SCAs) are available for sloped or high ceiling installations.

• 

This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum 15 amp circuit. The 
maximum current requirement for the fan with light fi xture is 2.17 amps. The fan uses about .71 amp or 85 watts. 
Maximum light current is about 1.46 amps or 175 watts of lighting.

  Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy 

hatch, make sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.

  WARNING: Do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackets, balancing the blades, or cleaning the 

fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between the rotating fan blades.

Unpacking

Before assembling and installing your ceiling fan, remove all parts from the shipping cartons and check them 
against the parts listed in the Parts Guide. Before discarding packaging materials, be certain that all parts have 
been removed.

For best performance and for your warranty to be valid, 

use only genuine Casablanca blades, light fi xtures, and accessories.

  The blades in each pack are matched for equal weight 

to assure smooth fan operation. If more than one fan 
is being installed, be careful not to mix blades from 
different cartons.

  Inspect the contents of your carton for possible 

shipping or handling damage. If parts are missing or 
damaged, call 1-888-227-2178.

  It is always a good idea to have an assistant to help 

with the installation.

  When cleaning, painting, or working near your fan, 

be very careful of the fan and blades. Always turn the 
power OFF to the ceiling fan before working on it or 
replacing lightbulbs. 

  Never insert anything into the path of the fan blades 

while the fan is in operation.

•  Never install a fan over a pool or spa. 

  Never operate a fan that has been damaged
