Hunter Universal 3 Speed Ceiling Fan Remote

Installation

Important: Before installing the Universal Remote Control Receiver, use the pull chains to set the fan speed to HIGH and the light to ON. Be sure power is OFF before proceeding with installation.

Receiver Placement: For low profile fans, the receiver should be secured to the ceiling bracket with a cable tie.

Canopy Removal: Remove the canopy. If uncertain how to remove it, reference the fan's owner's manual. With wiring exposed, note existing wire connections or take a digital photo for reference. Remove the wire connectors that connect the wires from the outlet box to the fan, leaving the grounding wires connected.

Hanging System: Choose the hanging system that most closely resembles the one used by your fan and install the receiver as shown and wire as directed. Note: Some fans may have considerable excess lead wire. For easier canopy installation, cut the excess wire, leaving a minimum of 8" remaining. Re-strip the fan lead wires 1/2". Place remaining excess wire into the ceiling electrical box. The bracket and fan must remain properly grounded.

Angled Ceilings: You may have installation issues if the fan is installed on an angled ceiling. For assistance, call 1-888-830-1326.

Wiring

Connecting Receiver to Fan: Using the orange wire connectors, connect the blue wire from the receiver to the blue wire (or possibly black with white stripe wire) from the fan. Connect the yellow wire from the receiver to the black wire from the fan.

Connecting Receiver and Fan to Outlet Box: Using the orange wire connectors, connect the black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black wire from the receiver. Connect the white wire (grounded) from the ceiling to both the white wire from the receiver and the white wire from the fan.

Securing Connections: After all wires are connected and secured with wire connectors, re-install the canopy. Turn the splices upward and push them carefully back through the hanger bracket into the outlet box. Spread the wires apart, with the grounded wires on one side of the outlet box and the ungrounded wires on the other side of the outlet box.

Safety Note: To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or servicing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

Operation

Pairing: Note: The remote must be paired before the fan will operate. Within 3 minutes of restoring power to the fan, press both the Fan Off button and the High button for at least 4 seconds. Your fan will turn on low to indicate successful syncing. If it does not, turn off power to your fan, wait 1 minute then try again. If using the transmitter with multiple fans, repeat this process for each fan.

Fan Control: The Fan Off button only turns the fan off. To turn the fan on, press one of the fan speed buttons (Low, Medium, High).

Light Control: Quickly press the Light button to turn the lights off and on. Hold the Light button to raise and dim the light level.

Cradle Installation: To install the transmitter cradle, remove the two screws holding your switch cover plate. Do not remove the cover plate. Orient the cradle by lining up the two mounting holes with those on the cover plate. Insert and tighten the screws. Do not over tighten. Note: For paddle-style switches, break off the tabs on the cradle by pushing outward.

Maintenance

Battery Replacement: To access the battery compartment, remove the small Phillips head screw that secures the battery door to the transmitter assembly. Replace with a CR2032 battery when necessary. The battery should be installed with the positive (+) side up.

Safe-Exit Program

The Safe-Exit Program gives you about thirty seconds of light when you turn the lights off to exit the room before the lights go out. To use Safe-Exit:

• Press the Fan Off button for at least three seconds to initiate the Safe-Exit Mode.
• The lights will flash for visual confirmation.
• The lights will stay on 50% brightness for 15 seconds and then begin to dim. After a total of 30 seconds, the lights will be completely off.

Note for CFL Lighting: For CFL lighting, the lights will stay on 100% brightness for 30 seconds. After a total of 30 seconds, the lights will be completely off.

Troubleshooting

• Make sure the power is on at the circuit breaker and the wall switch.
• Make sure the battery is working.
