5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and motor housing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.

- Tighten Screws: Periodically check and tighten all screws on the fan assembly, blade attachments, and mounting hardware to prevent wobbling and ensure safe operation.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your dearnow ceiling fan, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Fan Does Not Start:
- Ensure power is supplied to the fan at the circuit breaker.
- Check that all electrical connections are secure and correctly wired.
- Verify remote control batteries are installed correctly and are not depleted.
- Light Does Not Work:
- Check electrical connections to the LED light kit.
- Ensure the light function on the remote control is activated.
- Remote Control Issues (e.g., controlling multiple fans):
- If you have multiple fans and wish to control them with a single remote, hold the "All Off" button on the remote immediately after flipping the main power switch for the fans. This action may pair the remote to all fans simultaneously.
- Fan Wobbles:
- Ensure all blade screws are tight.
- Check that the downrod is securely attached to both the motor housing and the mounting bracket.
- Verify the mounting bracket is firmly secured to the ceiling structure.
