SAFETY TIPS.

page 2

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of electrical shock, turn off the electricity to the fan at the main fuse box or circuit panel before you begin the fan 
installation or before servicing the fan or installing accessories.

1.         READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR FAN AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

CAUTION:  To avoid personal injury, the use of gloves may be necessary while handling fan parts with sharp edges.
2.         Make sure all electrical connections comply with Local Codes or Ordinances, the National Electrical Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-1999.  If you are 

unfamiliar with electrical wiring or if the house/building wires are different colors than those referred to in the instructions, please use a 
qualified electrician.

3.         Make sure you have a location selected for your fan that allows clear space for the blades to rotate, and at least seven (7) feet (2.13 meters) 

of clearance between the floor and the fan blade tips.  The fan should be mounted so that the tips of the blades are at least 
thirty (30) inches (76 centimeters) from walls or other upright structures.

4.         The outlet box and ceiling support joist used must be securely mounted, and capable of supporting at least 35 pounds (16 kilograms).  

The outlet box must be supported directly by the building structure.  Use only CUL (Canada) or UL (USA) listed outlet boxes marked 
"FOR FAN SUPPORT."

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to the outlet box marked "Acceptable for Fan Support of 15.9 kg 
(35 lbs) or less," and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.  Most outlet boxes commonly used for the support of lighting fixtures 
are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced.  Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, wire connectors provided with this fan are designed to accept only one 
12 gauge house wire and two lead wires from the fan.  If your house wire is larger than 12 gauge or there is more than one house wire to connect to 
the corresponding fan lead wires, consult an electrician for the proper size wire connectors to use.

5.         Electrical diagrams are for reference only.  Light kits that are not packed with the fan must be CUL (Canada) or UL (USA) listed and marked 

suitable for use with the model fan you are installing.  Switches must be CUL (Canada) or UL (USA) general use switches.  Refer to the 
instructions packaged with the light kits and switches for proper assembly.

6.         After installation is complete, check that all connections are absolutely secure.
7.         After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box.  The wires 

should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on opposite sides of the outlet box.

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, DO NOT use power tools to assemble any part of the fan, including the blades.

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not use this fan with any solid state speed control device or control fan speed with a full 
range dimmer switch.  [Using a full range dimmer switch to control fan speed will cause a loud humming noise from fan.] 

8.         Do not operate the reverse switch until fan has come to a complete stop.

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade arms during assembly or after installation.  Do not insert objects into the 
path of the blades while they are rotating.

WARNING:  To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.

9.         Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades.  A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most 

cleaning.

WARNING:  To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only parts provided with this fan.  The use of parts OTHER than those provided with this fan 

will void the warranty.

WARNING:  

This fan MUST be installed with the safety cable provided with the fan. Failure to use the safety cable provided may result in personal 

injury, damage to the fan or damage to other property.

10.       Light kit may be d

immable to 10% with select dimmers.

Modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.  [The equipment 
refers to the remote and/or wall control and/or LED light kit.]

NOTE:  This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  These 
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.  This equipment generates, uses and 
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio 
communications.  However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.  If this equipment does cause harmful 
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
 

* Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

 

* Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

 

* Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The LED light kit complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this LED light kit may not cause 
harmful interference, (2) this LED light kit must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
