3.2 Mounting the Fan
The ropelux ceiling fan is pre-assembled for quick and secure mounting. Follow these general steps:
- Attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling junction box using the provided screws.
- Connect the fan's electrical wires to the household wiring (live, neutral, ground) using wire nuts. Ensure US standard wires are used.

3.3 Wall Switch Compatibility
This fixture's dimmable function is controlled by low voltage direct current. Most US dimmers work with 120V AC, therefore, this fixture does not work with local dimmer or fan switches. Please use the provided remote or app to adjust brightness and fan speed.
The fixture works with a regular wall switch, which can be used to turn on/off the light. Press the wall switch within 5 seconds to cycle the light color temperatures. If over 5 seconds, the current mode will be saved for the next operation.
