Introduction

This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your Onisamt Ceiling Fan Remote Control Kit. Please read this manual thoroughly before use to ensure proper function and safety.

Product Features

  • Suitable for Multi Brands: The universal ceiling fan remote kit works with most major 110V 3-speed AC ceiling fans, compatible with Hampton Bay, Harbor Breeze, Hunter, Litex, Home Decorators Collection, Honeywell and other brands.
  • Fan Speed Control: The ceiling fan remote control has 3-speed settings, allowing you to adjust the speed to your desired level of comfort.
  • Light Dimming Control: This remote allows you to adjust the brightness of the lights on your ceiling fan. Even if you only have one light, you can still use the remote control by linking it to a light cord. This is especially useful when you want to set the right mood for different occasions.
  • Up and Down Light Control: The remote allows you to separately control the uplight and downlight of the ceiling fan. This is particularly useful if you want to use only one of the lights, or if you want to control the two lights independently.
  • Enhanced Comfort: This ceiling fan remote control kit provides convenient and flexible control over your ceiling fan and its lights, allowing you to customize the settings to your liking.

Setup and Installation

1. Setting DIP Switches

Before installation, ensure the DIP switches on both the remote control and the receiver are set to the same code. There are 16 different frequency codes available. The default setting is 0000, which is not recommended for optimal performance and to avoid interference.

2. Battery Installation (Remote Control)

The remote control requires one 9V battery (not included). Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote and insert the 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.

3. Wiring the Receiver

WARNING: Before beginning installation, ensure the power to the ceiling fan is completely disconnected at the circuit breaker to prevent electric shock.

  1. Disconnect the existing ceiling fan wiring from the household electrical supply.
  2. Connect the receiver according to the wiring diagram provided. Ensure all connections are secure using the included wire nuts.
    • White wire from receiver to motor N (Neutral)
    • Black wire from receiver to motor L (Live)
    • Blue wire from receiver to DOWN LIGHT
    • Orange wire from receiver to UP LIGHT
    • AC IN N (Neutral) and AC IN L (Live) from household supply to receiver.
  3. Carefully tuck the wired receiver into the fan's canopy or mounting bracket.
  4. Secure the ceiling fan back in place.
  5. Restore power at the circuit breaker.

Important Installation Notes:

  • If your ceiling fan has a pull cord switch, the light cord needs to be pulled to the ON state, and the fan cord needs to be pulled to the maximum setting. Otherwise, the receiver may burn out.
  • If your wall-operated fan has a 3-speed adjustment, you must turn the wall fan switch to maximum speed. Otherwise, the receiver may burn out.
