Step 2: Install the Cap

Step 3: Connect the Receiver Wires
Connect the wires from the remote receiver to the corresponding wires from the fan motor. Typically, Red (receiver) to Red (fan), Yellow (receiver) to Yellow (fan), and Grey (receiver) to Grey (fan). Use wire nuts to secure connections.
Step 4: Install Fan Mounting Bracket
Secure the fan mounting bracket to the ceiling electrical box. Ensure the bracket is firmly attached to a structural support in the ceiling.
Step 5: Hang the Motor Assembly
Carefully lift the fan motor assembly and hang it onto the mounting bracket. This will temporarily support the fan while you complete the wiring.
Step 6: Connect Ceiling Wires
Connect the wires from the ceiling to the remote receiver. Connect Ground (ceiling) to Ground (receiver), White (ceiling neutral) to White (receiver neutral), and Black (ceiling hot) to Black (receiver hot). Secure all connections with wire nuts.
Step 7: Attach the Canopy
Once all wiring is complete and secured, carefully push the fan motor assembly up into the mounting bracket and secure the canopy with the provided screws. Ensure no wires are pinched.
