Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to install your Aubric Universal Ceiling Fan Remote Control Kit:
- Preparation: Before beginning installation, ensure the power to the ceiling fan is turned OFF at the circuit breaker. If your fan has pull chains, set the fan speed to HIGH and turn the light ON using the pull chains. This allows the remote to take full control.
- Access Wiring: Loosen the collar at the ceiling to slide it down and reveal the existing wiring connections inside the electrical box.
- Connect Receiver: Refer to the wiring diagram below. The receiver has five wires: two input wires (AC Neutral Line, AC Live Line) and three output wires (Neutral Line, Live Line to FAN, Live Line to LIGHT). Connect these wires using the provided wire nuts.

- Secure Connections: Ensure all wire nuts are securely tightened.
- Position Receiver: Carefully tuck the receiver into the fan canopy, ensuring it does not interfere with the fan's operation or wiring.
- Restore Power: Once all connections are secure and the receiver is safely housed, restore power at the circuit breaker.
- Pairing (if necessary): Most units come pre-paired. If the remote does not control the fan immediately, you may need to pair it. To pair, turn off the power to the fan for 10 seconds, then turn it back on. Within 5 seconds of restoring power, press and hold the 'STOP' button on the remote until you hear a beep or see the fan/light respond.
