If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring 
knowledge or experience, have your fan installed by a 
licensed electrician.

Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your 
household wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts (BB) with your 
fan. Secure the wire nuts with electrical tape. Make sure 
there are no loose strands or connections.

     Connect the ground conductor (QQ) of the 120V 

supply (this may be a bare wire or a wire with green 
colored insulation) to the green ground lead(s) (UU) of 
the fan using a plastic wire nut (BB).  

     Connect the fan motor white wire (TT) to the supply 

white (neutral) wire (PP) using a plastic wire nut (BB).

     Connect the fan motor black wire (SS) and the blue 

wire (RR) to the supply black (hot) wire (OO) using a 
plastic wire nut (BB).

     Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading 

them apart so the green (ground) will be on one side 
of the outlet box (MM) and the white (TT), black (SS) 
and blue (RR) wires will be on the other side, and 
push carefully up into the outlet box (MM).

WARNING:

 

Check to see that all connections are tight, 

including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire 
nuts (except for the ground wire).

WARNING:

 

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do 

not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

WARNING:

 

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure 

electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
