6. Troubleshooting
Refer to this section for common issues and their solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Fan does not start | No power; loose wiring; remote control battery depleted. | Check circuit breaker; ensure all connections are secure; replace remote control battery. |
| Fan wobbles | Loose blade screws; unbalanced blades; improper mounting. | Tighten all blade screws; ensure blades are balanced (refer to full manual for balancing kit instructions if needed); verify mounting bracket is secure. |
| Light does not work | Loose wiring; LED module failure; remote control issue. | Check wiring connections; contact support for a replacement LED module; replace remote control battery. |
| Fan is noisy | Loose parts; motor issue; fan operating at excessively high speed. | Check and tighten all screws and connections. While the fan is designed for quiet operation (under 35dB), operating at the highest speed (level 6) may produce more airflow noise. Ensure the fan is not set to an unstable speed if experiencing excessive vibration or noise. |
