Safety Information

WARNING: Read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate, or install the product.

• Before installation, disconnect power by removing fuses or turning off circuit breakers.
• Ensure all electrical connections comply with local codes, the National Electrical Code, and ANSI/NFPA 70-199. Consult a qualified electrician if unfamiliar with wiring.
• Ensure the installation site allows a minimum clearance of 7 ft. from blades to floor and at least 30 in. from blade ends to any obstruction.
• The net weight of this fan is 13.45 lbs.
• DANGER: When using an existing outlet box, ensure it is securely attached to the building structure and can support the fan's full weight.
• WARNING: Use gloves when handling parts with sharp edges.
• WARNING: Do not use a full-range dimmer switch to control fan speed, as it may cause humming.
• WARNING: Mount the fan to an outlet box marked "ACCEPTABLE FOR FAN SUPPORT" and use provided mounting screws. Most lighting fixture outlet boxes are not suitable for fan support and may need replacement. Consult an electrician if unsure. Secure the outlet box directly to the building structure; it must support at least 35 lbs.
• WARNING: Wire connectors are designed for one 12-gauge house wire and two fan lead wires. For larger house wires or more than one house wire, consult an electrician.
• WARNING: Do not bend blade arms during installation, balancing, or cleaning. Do not insert objects between rotating blades.
• WARNING: Use only provided parts. Using other parts voids the warranty.
• CAUTION: Ensure the outlet box is properly grounded or a ground wire is present.
• CAUTION: Check all screws, bolts, and nuts on the fan motor assembly for security.
• CAUTION: This equipment complies with FCC Rules Part 15 for Class B digital devices. It generates radio frequency energy and may cause interference. If interference occurs, try repositioning the antenna, increasing separation, using a different circuit, or consulting a dealer/technician. Unauthorized modifications may void user authority to operate.

2. This fan is intended for Flushmount installation only. Standard, Angle, and Closemount installations are not available.
3. Ensure blades (J) will be at least 30 inches from obstructions and 7 feet above the floor.
4. Secure the upper mounting bracket (B) to the outlet box (not included) using screws and washers provided with the outlet box. CAUTION: Use proper hardware as it supports the fan.
5. Remove the lower bracket screws (M) from the lower mounting bracket (D). Keep loose hardware separate.
6. Place one tab of the lower mounting bracket (D) into a slot in the upper mounting bracket (B). Slide the second tab of (D) into the second slot on (B) until all four holes align.
7. Re-install the removed lower bracket screws (M) to secure the lower mounting bracket (D) and the upper mounting bracket (B).

• Connect the Green wire from the fan to the Bare/Green supply wire.
• Connect the White wire from the fan to the White supply wire.
• Connect the Black and Blue wires from the fan to the Black supply wire.

2. Wrap electrical tape (not included) around each wire connector (AA) down to the wire.
3. Turn spliced/taped wires upward and push them and connectors (AA) into the outlet box. WARNING: Ensure no bare wire or strands are visible. Place Green and White connections on the opposite side of the outlet box from Black and Blue connections.

Final Installation

1. Temporarily lift the motor housing (A) to the upper mounting bracket (B). Align two motor housing screws (O) on (B) with the slotted holes in the top edge of (A). Partially loosen these two screws (O). Remove the other two screws (O) from (B).
2. Slide the motor housing (A) over the motor (E), aligning the slotted holes in (A) with the loosened screws (O) in (B). Twist (A) clockwise to lock. Re-insert the two previously removed screws (O) and tighten all screws securely.

Operating Instructions

1. Fan Speed Control: The pull chain has four positions: One pull = HIGH, Two pulls = MEDIUM, Three pulls = LOW, Four pulls = OFF. The pull chain in the center of the light kit (G) turns the lights ON and OFF.
2. Comfort Control: Using the ceiling fan can allow you to adjust your thermostat settings.
• Warmer Weather: Push the reverse switch (on the fitter plate [F]) left to display a sun icon ☀️. This results in downward airflow for a cooling effect.
• Cooler Weather: Push the reverse switch right to display a snowflake icon ❄️. This results in upward airflow to circulate warm air.
• Important: The reverse switch must be set fully left or right for the fan to operate correctly. If set in the middle, the fan will not work.

Care and Maintenance

• At least twice a year, tighten all screws on the fan.
• Clean the motor housing with a soft brush or lint-free cloth.
• Clean the blades with a lint-free cloth.
• Bulb Replacement: Use 40-watt max. E26-base LED, CFL, or incandescent bulbs. Halogen bulbs are not recommended.
• Important: Shut off the main power supply before any maintenance. Do not use water or a damp cloth to clean the fan.

Troubleshooting

Lifetime Limited Warranty

All other ceiling fan parts are warranted for one year from the date of purchase against defects in workmanship and material, excluding parts made of glass and finishes. Claims must be made by the original purchaser from an authorized dealer within the first year for parts defects.

Purchasers are responsible for all costs of removing and reinstalling the product. This warranty does not cover damage from wear and tear, accident, misuse, or improper installation.

Incidental or consequential damages are not covered. Some states may not allow these limitations.

This warranty is void if the original purchaser ceases to own the fan. The manufacturer agrees to replace defective parts or the entire fan with a comparable or superior model if a defect is found within the warranty period.

All other express and implied warranties, including implied warranties of fitness and merchantability, are disclaimed. Some states do not allow disclaimer of implied warranties.
