Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary
to remove the fan from the ceiling.
Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to
avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
(Optional) Cover small scratches witha light application of shoe polish.
