Fan Finishes
• For cleaning, a soft brush or lint-free cloth should be used to prevent scratching the fi nish.
• A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier dust.
• Surface smudges or an accumulation of dirt and dust can be removed easily using a mild detergent and slightly dampened
soft cloth. An antistatic agent may be used, but
never use abrasive cleaning agents
as these will damage the fi nish.
Blades
• Wood-fi nish blades should be cleaned with a furniture polishing cloth. Occasionally, a light coat of furniture polish
may be applied for added protection and beauty.
• For painted, high-gloss or plastic blades (ABS), surface smudges or an accumulation of dirt and dust can be removed
easily using a mild detergent and slightly dampened soft cloth. An antistatic agent may be used, but
never use abrasive
cleaning agents
as these will damage the fi nish.

Changing Lightbulbs
• Be sure to turn the power to OFF at the wall switch or circuit breaker before changing lightbulbs.
