To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons, read and follow all instructions carefully.
- WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, turn off the electricity at the main fuse box or circuit breaker panel before you begin fan installation or before servicing the fan.
- All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
- The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 feet (2.1 meters) clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the floor.

- Do not operate the fan with damaged power cords or plugs. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons to avoid a hazard.
- Keep small parts, such as screws and connectors, away from children to prevent choking hazards during installation.

4.2 Choosing a Down-rod
Select the appropriate down-rod length based on your ceiling height for optimal performance and safety:
- For ceiling distances of approximately 100 inches (2.54 meters), use the 5-inch down-rod.
- For ceiling distances of approximately 110 inches (2.79 meters), use the 10-inch down-rod.
- For ceiling distances of approximately 130 inches (3.30 meters), use the 14-inch down-rod.
The maximum angle for sloped ceilings is 15 degrees. Do not install on ceilings with a greater slope.
4.3 Installation Steps
- Mounting Bracket Installation: Secure the mounting bracket to the ceiling outlet box using the screws and washers provided. Ensure the bracket is firmly attached and can support the fan's weight.
- Down-rod and Motor Assembly: Feed the motor wires through the chosen down-rod. Insert the down-rod into the motor housing and secure it with the provided pin and screw.
- Hanging the Fan: Carefully lift the fan assembly and place the down-rod ball into the mounting bracket's opening. Ensure the tab on the mounting bracket aligns with the slot on the down-rod ball.
- Wiring Connections: Connect the fan's electrical wires to the household wiring according to the wiring diagram in the manual (typically black to black, white to white, and green/bare copper to ground). Use the provided wire nuts and secure connections with electrical tape.
- Canopy Installation: Slide the canopy up to the ceiling and secure it to the mounting bracket with the screws provided, ensuring all wires are tucked neatly inside.
- Blade Attachment: Attach the three walnut wood blades to the motor housing using the screws and washers provided. Ensure all screws are tightened securely.
- LED Light Kit Installation: Connect the LED light kit wires to the fan motor's light wires. Secure the light kit to the bottom of the fan motor housing.
Installation typically takes around 20 minutes for experienced installers. Always double-check all connections before restoring power.

- Fan Speed Control (1-6): Buttons to adjust the fan speed from 1 (lowest) to 6 (highest).
- Light ON/OFF: Press to turn the LED light on or off.
- Light Color Temperature Adjustment: Cycle through 3 color temperatures (e.g., warm white, neutral white, cool white). The fan will memorize the last selected light color if turned off for more than 15 seconds.

- Delay OFF: Activates a 5-minute delay before the fan and light turn off.
- Reversible Function (Forward/Reverse): Press to change the direction of blade rotation. Forward mode (downward airflow) is ideal for summer to create a cooling effect. Reverse mode (upward airflow) is ideal for winter to circulate warm air.
- Anti-theft Setting: When activated, the ceiling fan and light will automatically turn on for 10 minutes every 4 hours to simulate occupancy.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: To clean the fan, wipe the blades and motor housing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish. Ensure the power is off before cleaning.
- Blade Care: The walnut wood blades are designed for durability. Avoid excessive moisture or direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading.
- Tightness Check: Periodically check all screws on the fan assembly, especially those securing the blades and mounting bracket, to ensure they are tight. Loose connections can cause wobbling or noise.
- LED Light: The integrated LED light is designed for long-lasting performance and does not require bulb replacement. If the light malfunctions, contact customer support.
