           Here are some suggestions to help maintain your fan.

1. Because of the fan's natural movement some connections may become 
loose. Check the support connections, brackets and blade attachments 
twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove 
fan from the ceiling).

2. Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over 
the years. Use only a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the 
finish. Plated finishes are sealed with lacquer to minimize discoloration 
or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning, this could damage the 
motor, wood blades or possibly cause an electrical shock.

3. Use a lint free lightly damp cloth or duster to remove dust from the 
blades.

4. There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated 
bearings.

5. If your fan is provided with glass shades, clean with lukewarm soapy water 
and a soft cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE GLASS SHADES IN HOT WATER. 
DO NOT PUT GLASS SHADES INTO AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.

CARE OF YOUR  FAN 

WARNING! 

MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE 
ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT 
ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION, 
"ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS".
