Important Safety Information

  • Risk of Electric Shock: Before installing or servicing the fan, disconnect the power supply by turning off the circuit breaker. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unfamiliar with proper electrical wiring connections.
  • All electrical connections must be in accordance with local and National Electric Code (N.E.C.) standards and ANSI/NFPA 70.
  • Do not alter, re-locate, or remove wiring when nothing is wrong with the product. Double-check all connections and screws to ensure they are tight and correct.
  • Verify that the supply voltage is correct by comparing it with the product information (120 Volts).
  • Ensure the installation site allows a minimum of 7.5 feet from the fan blades to the floor.
  • Do not connect to dimmer switches or fan speed switches to prevent operational malfunctions. Use conventional on/off switches only.
