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 (AA) with your
fan. Secure the plastic wire nuts (AA) with electrical tape.
Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.
□
Connect the ground conductor of the 120V supply
(this may be a bare wire or a wire with green colored
insulation) to the green ground lead(s) of the fan.
There are two green grounding leads: one from the
mounting bracket (A) and one from the hanger
ball/downrod assembly (D).
□
Connect the fan motor white wire to the supply white
(neutral) wire using a plastic wire nut (AA).
□
Connect the fan motor black wire and the blue wire to
the supply black (hot) wire using a plastic wire nut
(AA).
□
Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading
them apart so the green (ground) will be on one side
of the outlet box (NN) and the white, black and blue
wire will be on the other side. Carefully tuck the
connections up into the outlet box (NN).
