11. Operating the Remote Control/Wall Control

Remote Control Only: Install two AAA 1.5 volt batteries (included). To prevent damage to the transmitter, remove the battery if not used for long periods. IMPORTANT: THIS REMOTE CONTROL & DC FAN MOTOR ARE DESIGNED TO PERFORM A ONE-TIME SELF CALIBRATION TEST. THIS TEST WILL BEGIN ONCE A NEW CODE HAS BEEN SET AND WILL LAST APPROXIMATELY ONE MINUTE.

Your DC brushless motor is equipped with a self-learning frequency function remote control. Restore power to the ceiling fan and test the transmitter as below for proper operation:

A. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 Buttons:

These six buttons are used to set the fan speed as follows:

• 1 = minimum speed
• 2 = low speed
• 3 = medium low speed
• 4 = medium speed
• 5 = medium high speed
• 6 = high speed

B. Reverse Button:

This button is used to change the direction of the rotation of the blades: forward for warm weather or reverse for cool weather.

C. [Power Off] Button:

This button turns the power Off to the Fan.

D. [Light Control] Buttons:

These buttons turn the light ON or OFF and also control the brightness settings of the light. The following instructions apply to ceiling fans that feature a DOWN light only or ceiling fans that feature an UP light and a DOWN light that are controlled independent of each other:

Press and release the button for the desired light to turn the light ON or OFF. Press and hold the button to set the desired light brightness. The light will cycle between bright and dim settings as long as the button is pressed. The light has an automatic auto-resume feature that allows the light to remain at the same brightness as the last time it was turned off.

Auto Learning Function & Calibration:

• The auto learning function will only mandate within 60 seconds when turning the fan's AC power ON.
• Select desired frequency from the back of the transmitter.
• Within 60 seconds of turning AC power on, press and hold the "[Power Off]" button to enter the learning function. Once the fan has detected the remote control's frequency, the down light (if applicable) will blink, and the fan blades will start to spin.
• NOTE: During self-calibration test, the remote will be non-functional.
• The learning frequency function and self-calibration test will continue to retain the last set frequency and calibration set even when the AC power is shut off. If the frequency is changed, the self-calibration test will occur again.
• Lock Position: The DC motor has a built-in safety against obstruction during operation. The motor will lock and disconnect power after 30 seconds if an interruption occurs. Please remove obstacles before re-setting.
• Over 80W Protection: When the receiver detects motor power consumption greater than 80W, the receiver's power will stop, and operation will be immediately discontinued. Turn the receiver power on after 5 seconds.

Summer & Winter Operation

Speed settings for warm or cold weather depend on factors such as room size, ceiling height, and number of fans.

NOTE: To change the direction of the rotation of the blades, the fan must be in operation mode.

• Warm Weather (Forward): A DOWNWARD airflow creates a cooling effect (See Fig. 20). This allows you to set your air conditioner on a warmer setting without affecting your comfort.
• Cool Weather (Reverse): An UPWARD airflow moves warmer air off the ceiling area (See Fig. 21). This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

12. Enjoy Your Smart Ceiling Fan

NOTE: Before proceeding, please test all your fan's functionalities using your remote control first.

To enjoy the full potential of your new ceiling fan, you will need to download the BOND HOME app, available on the Google and Apple Play Store.

You can download the app by visiting https://bondhome.io/app and following the prompts.

NOTE: Please refer to the "Troubleshooting section" for additional information on your Smart Ceiling Fan.

13. Care of Your Fan

Here are some suggestions to help maintain your fan:

1. Due to the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Ensure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling).
2. Clean your fan periodically to maintain its appearance. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. Plated finishes are sealed with lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning, as this could damage the motor, wood blades, or cause an electrical shock.
3. If your fan has wood veneer blades, apply a light coat of furniture polish for additional protection and enhanced beauty. Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4. Use a lint-free, lightly damp cloth or duster to remove dust from the blades.
5. There is no need to oil your fan; the motor has permanently lubricated bearings.
6. If your fan is provided with glass shades, clean with lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE GLASS SHADES IN HOT WATER. DO NOT PUT GLASS SHADES INTO AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.

WARNING! MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION, "ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS".

14. Troubleshooting

Symptom: Fan will not start

• Check to make sure the wall switch is turned on.
• Check circuit fuses or breakers.
• Caution! Make sure the power is turned off before performing the following steps.
• Remove canopy and check wire connections.
• Check wall control transmitter connections (if applicable).
• NOTE: Fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 40 feet from the transmitting unit for proper signal transmission between the transmitting unit and the fan's receiving unit.

Symptom: Fan Sounds Noisy

• Allow a 24-hour "break-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan will go away during this time.
• Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade holder to the motor hub are tight.
• Make sure the outlet box is secured to the building structure; if necessary, use the wood screws provided to further secure the outlet box to the joist.
• Make sure the hanger bracket is secure to the outlet box and screws are tight.

Symptom: Fan Wobble

• NOTE: All blade sets are grouped by weight. Because wood and plastic blades vary in density, the fan may wobble even though blades are matched.
• Make sure the outlet box is secured to the building structure; if necessary, use the wood screws provided to further secure the outlet box to the joist.
• Make sure the hanger bracket is secure to the outlet box, screws are tight.

Symptom: Fans/Light Turn On and Off Unexpectedly

• This is caused by interference. Please see "Frequency Interference" for steps to change the frequency.

Symptom: Frequency Interference

• Turn the power off to your ceiling fan.
• Use a small tool to change the frequency settings on the control system.
• Return power to the unit. Note: After AC power is on, do not press any other button on the transmitter before pressing the "Stop" button, as this will cause the procedure to fail.
• Within 60 seconds of turning the Fan's AC power ON, press and hold the transmitter's "Stop" button for 10 seconds.
• Once the receiver has detected the set frequency, the down light (if applicable) will blink twice. (There is no indication if your fan is not equipped with a light).
• The receiver has now learned the frequency selected on the transmitter. After completing these steps, you should be able to operate the ceiling fan and light. If the fan is not responding to the transmitter, turn the power off to the receiver and repeat the process.
