Product Overview
This manual provides instructions for the installation and use of the Home & Appliances Ceiling Fan Remote Wall Holder, Model UC7078T. This accessory is designed to provide a convenient and secure storage location for your Hampton Bay or Harbor Breeze ceiling fan remote control.
The wall holder is constructed from durable plastic and features a simple, functional design for easy mounting and remote access.
Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to properly install your remote wall holder:
- Choose a Location: Select a flat, vertical surface near your ceiling fan or light switch where the remote will be easily accessible. Ensure the surface is suitable for drilling if using screws.
- Prepare for Mounting: The holder can be mounted using screws (not included) or double-sided adhesive tape (not included). For a secure, long-term installation, screw mounting is recommended.
- Mark Drilling Points: Hold the wall holder against the chosen surface. Using a pencil, mark the two screw hole locations visible on the holder.
- Drill Pilot Holes (if necessary): If mounting into drywall or wood, drill small pilot holes at the marked locations. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than your chosen screws. If mounting into masonry, use appropriate masonry drill bits and wall anchors.
- Secure the Holder: Align the screw holes on the holder with the pilot holes. Insert and tighten screws (not included) until the holder is firmly secured to the wall. Do not overtighten.

Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your wall holder:
- Cleaning: Wipe the holder periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the plastic finish.

- Avoid Excessive Force: Do not force an incompatible remote into the holder, as this may cause damage to both the remote and the holder.
