Setup and Installation
This light kit is designed for attachment to a compatible Harbor Breeze Tilghman II ceiling fan. Refer to your ceiling fan's instruction manual for specific details on preparing the fan for light kit installation.
- Preparation: Ensure the power supply to the ceiling fan is completely disconnected at the main circuit breaker. Verify power is off by attempting to operate the fan or existing light.
- Wiring Connections: Carefully connect the electrical wires from the light kit to the corresponding wires from the ceiling fan. Typically, connect the white wire from the light kit to the white (neutral) wire from the fan, and the black wire from the light kit to the black (hot) wire from the fan. Connect any green or bare copper ground wires together. Secure all connections using the provided wire nuts, ensuring no bare wire is exposed.
- Mounting the Light Kit Housing: Align the light kit housing with the designated mounting points on the bottom of the ceiling fan motor housing. Secure the light kit housing firmly using the screws provided, ensuring a snug fit.
- Bulb Installation: Carefully screw the two 6.5-watt LED medium base (E26) bulbs into the sockets within the light kit housing. Do not overtighten the bulbs.
- Shade Attachment: Position the white frosted glass shade over the light kit housing. Secure the shade according to the specific mechanism of your Tilghman II fan, typically by twisting or using retaining screws, ensuring it is stable and will not fall.
- Power Restoration: Once all connections are secure and the light kit is fully assembled, restore power at the circuit breaker.
Operating Instructions
The Tilghman II LED Light Kit offers straightforward operation:
- Pull Chain Operation: The light kit is equipped with a pull chain. A single pull will turn the light ON, and another pull will turn it OFF.
- Remote Control Operation (if applicable): If your Harbor Breeze Tilghman II ceiling fan is equipped with a remote control that includes light functions, you may also use the remote to control the light kit. Refer to your fan's remote control manual for specific pairing and operation instructions.
The integrated LED technology provides efficient and long-lasting illumination, reducing the need for frequent bulb replacements.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and appearance of your light kit.
- Cleaning: Always ensure power is disconnected before cleaning. To clean the bronze finish, wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or polishes that could damage the finish. For the white frosted glass shade, remove it carefully and wash with mild soap and water, or use a glass cleaner. Dry thoroughly before reattaching.
- Bulb Replacement: The included LED bulbs are designed for extended life. If replacement becomes necessary, ensure power is off. Use only 6.5-watt LED medium base (E26) bulbs. Using incandescent bulbs or bulbs with higher wattage than specified may damage the light kit or pose a fire hazard.
