Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your Kichler Imari ceiling fan, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Fan does not start | No power to the fan; loose wire connections; incorrect wall control wiring. | Check circuit breaker. Ensure all wiring connections are secure. Verify wall control wiring per instructions. |
| Fan makes clicking noise | Loose screws on fan blades or motor housing; unbalanced blades; obstruction. | Tighten all screws. Check for any obstructions. Ensure blades are balanced (a balancing kit may be needed). |
