Professional installation is recommended. Ensure power is disconnected at the circuit breaker before proceeding.
4.1 Pre-Installation

4.3 Assembling the Downrod
Feed the electrical wires from the fan motor through the downrod. Insert the downrod into the fan motor housing and secure it with the provided pin and screw. For angled ceilings, ensure the canopy is adjusted to allow for proper clearance.
4.4 Wiring Connections
Carefully lift the fan assembly and hang it on the mounting bracket. Connect the electrical wires according to the wiring diagram provided in the full instruction manual (typically black to black, white to white, and green/bare copper to ground). Secure connections with wire nuts.
4.5 Attaching Fan Blades
Attach each fan blade to the blade arms using the screws provided. Then, attach the blade arms to the fan motor housing. Ensure all screws are tightened securely.
4.6 Installing the Light Kit
Connect the light kit wires to the corresponding wires from the fan motor. Secure the light kit assembly to the bottom of the fan motor housing. Install the two 9W non-dimmable LED bulbs and then attach the white frost glass bowl by twisting it into place.
5. Operating Instructions
Once installation is complete and power is restored, your fan is ready for operation.
5.1 Fan Speed Control
The fan speed is controlled by one of the pull chains. Pull the chain repeatedly to cycle through the three available speeds (High, Medium, Low) and Off.
- 1 Pull: High Speed
- 2 Pulls: Medium Speed
- 3 Pulls: Low Speed
- 4 Pulls: Off
5.2 Light Control
The light kit is controlled by the other pull chain. Pull the chain to turn the light On or Off.
5.3 Reversible Motor Function
Your fan features a reversible motor for year-round comfort. A switch on the fan motor housing allows you to change the direction of blade rotation.
- Summer Mode (Counter-clockwise): Pushes air downward, creating a cooling breeze.
- Winter Mode (Clockwise): Draws air upward, circulating warm air trapped near the ceiling.
To change the direction, ensure the fan is off and the blades have stopped completely before sliding the reverse switch.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and motor housing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Tightening Screws: Check all screws on the fan blades, blade arms, and mounting hardware annually. Tighten any loose screws to prevent wobbling and noise.
- Light Bulb Replacement: The fan uses 9W non-dimmable LED bulbs. To replace, ensure power is off, remove the glass bowl, unscrew the old bulb, and install a new one.
- No Lubrication Needed: The motor is permanently lubricated and does not require oiling.
