5.3 Assembling the Fan
- Select the appropriate downrod (12.5 cm for low ceilings, 25 cm for high ceilings) and insert it into the motor housing. Secure with the provided pin and screw.
- Attach the fan blades to the motor housing using the blade screws. The blades are reversible, allowing you to choose between Blonde Maple/Light Oak and Dark Brown/Walnut finishes.
- Connect the LED light kit to the fan motor wiring and secure it to the bottom of the motor housing.
5.4 Wiring and Final Installation
- Carefully lift the assembled fan and hang it on the mounting bracket.
- Connect the electrical wires (Live, Neutral, Ground) from the ceiling to the fan's corresponding wires. Use the provided wire connectors.
- Safety Cable: Secure the integrated safety cable to a suitable structural point in the ceiling to prevent accidental drops.
- Tuck all wires neatly into the junction box and attach the canopy to cover the wiring and mounting bracket. Secure the canopy with screws.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your ceiling fan.
- Cleaning: Dust the fan blades and motor housing periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
