Light Control:
The integrated 18W LED light kit offers three color temperatures and dimmable brightness:
- Warm Light (2700K): For a cozy and relaxing ambiance.
- Natural Light (3500K): For general illumination and daily activities.
- Cool Light (4000K): For bright, focused lighting, suitable for work or tasks.

Reversible Function (Summer/Winter Mode):
The DC motor includes a reversal function to optimize air circulation throughout the year:
- Summer Mode: Fan blades rotate counter-clockwise, pushing cool air downwards to create a refreshing breeze.
- Winter Mode: Fan blades rotate clockwise, drawing cool air up and pushing warm air down from the ceiling, helping to distribute heat evenly.
Use the remote control to switch between modes.

- Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and motor housing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure power is off before cleaning.
