Seasonal Operation (Reversible Motor):
The WhisperWind reversible motor allows you to change the direction of the fan blades for optimal air circulation throughout the year.
- Summer Mode (Counter-clockwise): Downward airflow creates a cooling effect.
- Winter Mode (Clockwise): Upward airflow circulates warm air trapped near the ceiling.
To change direction, ensure the fan is OFF, then press the reverse button on the remote control. Allow the blades to come to a complete stop before restarting in the new direction.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to clean the fan blades and motor housing. Do not use abrasive cleaners or water, as this can damage the finish or electrical components.
- Blade Tightness: Periodically check that all blade screws are tight. Loose blades can cause wobbling and noise.
- Light Kit: The integrated LED light kit is designed for long life and typically does not require bulb replacement. If the light malfunctions, consult the troubleshooting section or contact customer support.
- Remote Control Batteries: Replace the 2 AAA batteries in the remote control when its range decreases or it stops responding.
