2.2 Installation Steps
For a detailed visual guide, please refer to the official installation video below.
Video 1: Official Installation Guide for Dreo Ceiling Fan CLF513. This video provides step-by-step instructions for safely installing your new ceiling fan.
- Prepare the Ceiling Bracket: Gently loosen three out of the four screws on the ceiling fan body. Keep them approximately 0.16 inches away from the bracket. Completely unscrew the remaining fourth screw for later use.
- Hang the Ceiling Fan Body: Hang the ceiling fan body in place on the ceiling bracket. Release your grip once the fan is securely hung. Position the ceiling fan body facing upward, align its oval-shaped screw slot with the L-shaped hook on the ceiling bracket. Slightly rotate counterclockwise to securely fasten them. Ensure that every screw is firmly seated within the L-shaped slots.
- Connect Wiring:
- Green wire: Connect to the ground wire.
- Black wire: Connect to the live wire.
- White wire: Connect to the neutral wire.
- Secure the Fan Body: Carefully unhook the ceiling fan body from the L-shaped hook. Align and secure the previously removed fourth screw with the oval-shaped screw slot on the ceiling bracket. Tighten all four screws in place using a screwdriver.
- Assemble the Blades: Make sure that the two blade slots align with the vertical tabs of the ceiling fan body. Partially insert the screws and washers into the blade's holes and then use a screwdriver to securely tighten them. Repeat for all four blades.
- Assemble the Light Kit: Connect the ports of the wires from the ceiling fan body to the light kit. Rotate the light kit clockwise to ensure you hear a 'click' sound, indicating it is securely fastened.
