CARE AND MAINTENANCE
At least twice each year, lower the canopy to check the downrod assembly, and then tighten all
screws on the fan. Clean the motor assembly with only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid
scratching the finish. Clean the blades with a lint-free cloth.
Important:
Shut off the main power supply before you begin any maintenance task. Do not use water
or a damp cloth to clean the fan.
