Setup and Installation
1. Power Disconnection
Before starting any electrical work, ensure the power supply to the ceiling fan is completely turned off at the circuit breaker. Verify power is off using a voltage tester.
2. Accessing Fan Wiring
Carefully lower the ceiling fan canopy to expose the wiring connections. Note the existing wiring configuration, especially the connections to the fan motor and light kit.
3. Setting Dip Switches (Frequency Matching)
Both the remote control transmitter and the receiver unit have a set of DIP switches. These switches must be set to the exact same pattern for the remote and receiver to communicate. If replacing an existing remote, match the new remote's DIP switches to the pattern of your old remote or the existing receiver.
If installing a new system or if you have multiple ceiling fans in your house, set a unique DIP switch pattern for each fan to prevent interference. Ensure the pattern is different from any neighboring fan's remote to avoid unintended operation.

Image: Diagram showing the importance of setting different DIP switch patterns for multiple ceiling fans in close proximity to prevent cross-interference.
4. Wiring the Receiver
Connect the receiver unit into the ceiling fan's wiring. The receiver is typically installed inside the fan's canopy. Follow the wiring diagram below:
- Black Wire (AC IN L): Connect to the live (hot) wire from the ceiling junction box.
- White Wire (AC IN N): Connect to the neutral wire from the ceiling junction box.
- Blue Wire (TO LIGHT): Connect to the light kit's live wire.
- Black Wire (TO FAN): Connect to the fan motor's live wire.
- White Wire (COMMON): Connect to the neutral wire of both the fan motor and the light kit.
Use the provided wire nuts to secure all connections. Ensure each connection is tight and insulated.

How to Use Wire Nuts
- Strip approximately 1/2 inch of insulation from the ends of the wires to be connected.
- Twist the bare ends of the wires together clockwise.
- Place a wire nut over the twisted wires and twist clockwise until secure. Ensure no bare wire is exposed.

5. Securing the Receiver and Canopy
Carefully tuck the wired receiver into the ceiling fan canopy. Ensure it fits without pinching any wires. Reattach the canopy to the ceiling fan mounting bracket.
6. Install Battery in Remote
Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control transmitter and insert a 9-volt battery (not included), observing the correct polarity.
7. Power Restoration
Restore power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker.
