5.2 Wiring Connections
Connect the fan's wiring to your household wiring according to the electrical code and the fan's instructions. Typically, this involves connecting ground, neutral, and live wires. Once connected, carefully tuck the wires into the junction box and secure the fan's housing to the mounting bracket using the provided screws.

6. Operating Instructions
Your POCHFAN ceiling fan is operated using the included remote control. Ensure the remote has 2 AAA batteries installed (included).
6.1 Remote Control Functions
Image Description: A close-up of the POCHFAN remote control, clearly labeling its various buttons: Fan Speed (1-6), Fan OFF, Light ON/OFF, Forward/Reverse, Light Brightness +/-, and Fan Timer (1H/3H/6H Setting). This visual guide helps users understand each button's function.
- Power Button (Center): Turns the fan ON/OFF.
- Fan Speed (1-6): Select desired fan speed from 1 (lowest) to 6 (highest).
- Light ON/OFF: Toggles the LED light on or off.
- Light Brightness (+/-): Adjusts the brightness of the LED light from 0% to 100%.
- Color Temperature (Light button press): Each press of the light button cycles through Warm Light (3000K), Day Light (4000K), and Cool Light (6500K).
- Forward/Reverse: Changes the direction of the fan blade rotation for seasonal use.
- Timer (1H/3H/6H): Sets the fan to automatically turn off after 1, 3, or 6 hours.

A remote control is also pictured, highlighting its role in these adjustments.
6.2 Reversible Function
The fan's reversible function allows you to optimize airflow for different seasons:
- Summer Mode (Downdraft): Blades rotate counter-clockwise, pushing cool air downwards to create a refreshing breeze.
- Winter Mode (Updraft): Blades rotate clockwise, drawing cool air up towards the ceiling and circulating warm air throughout the room.

The left side shows blue arrows indicating downdraft for summer cooling, while the right side shows orange arrows indicating updraft for winter heat circulation. The fan's appearance remains consistent in both scenarios.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the fan blades and motor housing. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Blade Inspection: Periodically check that all blade screws are tight. Loose blades can cause wobbling and noise.
- Light Diffuser: The light diffuser can be removed by twisting for cleaning. Ensure it is securely reattached.
- No Lubrication Needed: The DC motor is permanently lubricated and does not require additional oiling.
