2. Initial Setup / Pairing (Universal Code Search)
This universal remote control can be used directly for most compatible fan models. If your fan does not respond immediately, follow these steps to pair the remote:
- Ensure your fan is powered on.
- Press and hold the SET button on the remote control for approximately 5 seconds until the indicator light on the remote begins to flash.
- While the indicator light is flashing, press the ON/OFF button repeatedly until your fan responds (e.g., turns on or off).
- Once your fan responds, immediately press the SET button again to confirm the code. The indicator light will flash three times to confirm successful pairing.
- Test all functions to ensure full compatibility. If some functions do not work, repeat the process.
Note: Some older or less common fan models may not be fully compatible. Refer to your fan's original manual for specific remote control codes if available.

Maintenance
Battery Replacement
Replace batteries when the remote's indicator light dims or the remote becomes unresponsive. Always replace both batteries simultaneously with new AAA batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
Cleaning
Wipe the remote control with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the remote's surface or internal components.
Storage
If the remote control will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and potential damage.
