Choosing the Right Installation Location

You probably bought this fan with a location in mind. Let's check below to make sure it is a good fit.

Check the Room Dimensions:

Ensure at least 30 inches clearance from blade tip to the nearest wall or obstruction, and at least 7 feet from the bottom edge of the blade to the floor.

Check the Outlet Box:

You must be able to secure the fan to building structure or a fan-rated outlet box.

Checking the Ceiling Angle:

Standard Mounting: For flat ceilings, hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod for a Low Profile installation.

Angled Mounting: If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:

1. You will need a longer downrod (sold separately at HunterFan.com).
2. If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit (sold separately at HunterFan.com).

A little more information on Angled Mounting:

For optimum performance and appearance, a longer downrod should be used with your Hunter ceiling fan when installing on high or angled ceilings. If your ceiling is angled greater than 34°, you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. Longer downrods and the Angled Mounting Kit are sold separately at HunterFan.com.

Hunter Pro Tip: Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit: Fold on the dotted line. Place against the wall edge. Slide towards the ceiling. If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you need an angled mounting kit.

Installation Steps

Step 1: Installing the Ceiling Bracket

You have two options for installation. Pick which one works best for your location. Remove any existing bracket prior to installation. Only use the provided Hunter ceiling bracket that came in your fan's box.

Do this first!

Turn Power OFF

WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box associated with the wall switch location.

Option 1: Machine Screws

Use machine screws (provided with outlet box) and washers when securing to an existing ceiling fan-rated outlet box. Make sure it is securely installed and acceptable for fan support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs) or less.

ANGLED MOUNTING TIP: For angled ceilings, point opening toward peak.

Option 2: Wood Screws

Use wood screws and washers (included) when securing to a support structure with an approved electrical outlet box. Drill 9/64" pilot holes in the support structure to aid in securing the ceiling bracket with hardware found in the hardware bag.

Hunter Pro Tip: The machine screws are the ones that came with your outlet box.

Step 2: Installing the Downrod

Follow below if you are using the downrod that came pre-assembled in your box. Need to install a longer or shorter downrod? Check out the guide at the end of this manual.

Hunter Pro Tip: The ground wire attached to the downrod is approximately 8 inches. (not to scale)

1. KEEP Remove the pre-installed setscrew so that the downrod can be inserted.
2. Pass all wires to one side of the horizontal bar in the downrod assembly. Hand tighten the downrod (at least 4-5 full turns) until it stops. Trim the wires coming from the fan so that 8 inches remain coming from the top of the downrod.
3. Tighten the setscrew with pliers. DO NOT HAND TIGHTEN.

WARNING: FAN FALL HAZARD

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:

• ALWAYS tighten setscrew with pliers.
• DO NOT hand tighten setscrew.
• CHECK the setscrew is tight using pliers each time you change fan direction.

Step 3: Hanging the Fan

Slide canopy over downrod and wires.

Progress Check: Your fan should look like this.

NOTICE: To prevent damage to fan, ALWAYS lift holding either the fan housing or the downrod.

Place the downrod ball into the slot in the ceiling bracket.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Step 4: Wiring the Fan

We know wiring is hard. Let's make it easier. Follow these steps to get your fan wired quickly and safely. Follow the route below that best matches your wall switch setup. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or uncomfortable doing it yourself, please contact a qualified electrician.

You are going to need these: 4 Wire Nuts (these are in the bag)

Have a single switch? Follow these steps:

• Connect the white (grounded) wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan.
• Connect the black (ungrounded) wire from the ceiling to the black wire from the fan.
• Cap the blue wire from the fan. You will not need it for single switch wiring.

WARNING: The ceiling fan must be grounded. If the ground wire for the installation site is not present, immediately STOP installation and consult a qualified electrician.

Hunter Pro Tip: Here is how to connect the wires: Push the bare metal ends of the wires together and slide a wire nut over them. Then, twist the wire nut clockwise until tight. Give it a gentle pull to make sure none of the wires are loose.

• Connect the three grounding wires (green, green/yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling, downrod, and hanging bracket.

WARNING: All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring or in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Hunter Pro Tip: Have extra wiring? Turn the wires 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. Make sure that the wires are still attached to the wire nuts.

Have dual switches? Follow these steps:

• Connect the white (grounded) wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan.
• Connect the black (ungrounded) wire from the ceiling to the black wire from the fan.
• Connect the second ungrounded (light) wire from the ceiling to the blue wire from the fan.
• Connect the three grounding wires (green, green/yellow stripe, or bare copper) coming from the ceiling, downrod, and hanging bracket.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Step 5: Installing the Canopy

Fit the canopy in place as shown. Lift the canopy into place so that the screw holes are aligned. Insert the two canopy screws found in the hardware bag.

Step 6: Installing the Blades

Put the blade washers found in the hardware bag onto the blade screws found in the hardware bag. Then install the blade screws to secure each blade to the fan. Repeat x7.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Follow the instructions on the blade. Installing it incorrectly could result in your fan not functioning.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Step 7: Assembling the Light Kit

Partially install two light kit assembly screws, found in the hardware bag, halfway into the motor housing as shown. It does not matter which two screw holes you choose.

Feed the wire plugs through the center hole of the upper switch housing, then wrap keyhole slots around the screws and twist counterclockwise.

Insert the third screw, found in the hardware bag, in place and firmly tighten all the three screws.

WARNING: FAN FALL HAZARD Make sure all three screws are tight to secure the trim ring to the mounting plate.

Connect the single-pin connectors from the light kit assembly to the connectors from the fan. Connect the white wires together. Connect the blue and black wires together.

Carefully push all switch housing components into the switch housing, then install the switch housing plate using two short light kit assembly screws, found in the hardware bag.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Step 8: Installing the Bulbs and Glass

Install the included LED bulbs into the sockets. When necessary, replace with bulbs of the same wattage.

Lift the globe and align the notches in the globe with the tabs in the light kit. Attach the globe by lifting and turning clockwise one third of a full turn of the glass until it stops.

NOTE: Check to ensure proper engagement.

WARNING: GLASS FALL HAZARD To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, make sure that glass is properly secured.

Note: Fan style may vary.

Step 9: Preparing the Wall Control

1. Turning off the power: Ensure the power is OFF at the outlet box and wall switch location before proceeding with installation.
2. Installing the battery: To access the battery compartment, slide the battery door up. Replace the used battery with two AAA batteries when needed.
3. Wiring the Wall Control: Connect the grounding wire from the wall control to the ground control from the switch box using the provided wire nuts. Connect the "LIVE IN" from the switch box to the "~VAC" from the wall control using the provided wire nuts. Connect the "LIVE OUT" from the switch box to the "FAN" out from the wall control using the provided wire nuts. Push all wires into the switch box.
4. Installing the Wall Control: Install the longer screws through the slots in the wall control into the switch box screw holes.
5. Installing the Wall Plate: Install the shorter screws through the wall control plate and into the screw holes in the wall control.
6. Turning on the power: Turn Power ON.
7. Remote Pairing: The remote transmitter is already paired to the receiver and ready to use. If you need to pair your remote, cycle power to the fan by turning power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, do the following: [Placeholder for pairing instructions if needed, but the manual refers to a separate card].
