SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate, or install the product.
• Before you begin installing the fan, disconnect the power by removing fuses or turning off the
circuit breakers.
• Make sure that all electrical connections comply with local codes, ordinances, the National Electrical
Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-199. Hire a qualified electrician or consult a do-it-yourself wiring handbook if
you are unfamiliar with installing electrical wiring.
• Make sure the installation site you choose allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. (2,14 m) from the blades
to the floor and at least 30 in. (76 cm) from the end of the blades to any obstruction.
DANGER
WARNING
WARNING
When using an existing outlet box, make sure
the outlet box is securely attached to the building
structure and can support the full weight of
the fan. Failure to do this can result in serious
injury or death. The stability of the outlet box is
essential in minimizing wobble and noise in the
fan after installation is complete.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
use the fan with any solid-state speed-control
device or control the fan speed with a full-range
dimmer switch.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked
“ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT” 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. Secure the outlet box directly
to the building structure. The outlet box and its
support must be able to support the moving weight
of the fan, at least 35 lbs. (15,88 kg).
DANGER
If using the fan in a damp location, the fan must
be connected to a supply circuit that is protected
by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to
reduce the risk of personal injury, electrical shock
or death.

when installing them, balancing the blades, or
cleaning the fan. Do not insert objects between

Read all instructions and safety information
before installing your new fan. Review the
accompanying assembly diagrams.
Be sure the outlet box is properly grounded or
that a ground (green or bare) wire is present.
