INTRODUCTION

BEFORE YOU START

• CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! Installation is to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70-1999, and local codes. If you are unfamiliar with the wiring codes, you should use a qualied electrician. To avoid overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not install control to a receptacle, uorescent light xture, motor-operated appliance, or transformer-supplied appliance.

• This fan is designed to be installed on an existing electrical outlet box. The outlet box must be UL Listed for ceiling fan installations. If it is not, a new box must be installed.

• This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum 15 amp circuit. The maximum current requirement for the fan with light xture is 1.67 amps. The fan uses about .83 amp or 100 watts. Maximum light current is about .83 amps or 100 watts of lighting.

• Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy, make sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.

• WARNING: Do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackets, balancing the blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between the rotating fan blades.

Unpacking

Before assembling and installing your ceiling fan, remove all parts from the shipping cartons and check them against the parts listed in the Parts Guide. Before discarding packaging materials, be certain that all parts have been removed.

For the best performance and for your warranty to remain valid,

useonlygenuineCasablancablades,lightxtures,andaccessories.

SAFE USE

• The blades in each pack are matched for equal weight to assure smooth fan operation. If more than one fan is being installed, be careful not to mix blades from different cartons.

• Inspect the contents of your carton for possible shipping or handling damage. If parts are missing or damaged, call 1-888-227-2178.

• It is always a good idea to have an assistant to help with the installation.

• When cleaning, painting, or working near your fan, be very careful of the fan and blades. Always turn the power OFF to the ceiling fan before working on it or replacing lightbulbs.

• Never insert anything into the path of the fan blades while the fan is in operation.

• Never install a fan over a pool or spa.

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS

GENERAL GUIDELINES

Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. The location of the fan, air circulation, and fan size are all important factors to consider before installation.

Location

Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every room in your home. We suggest you follow these mounting recommendations as you decide where to install your Casablanca fan.

• This fan is not suitable for installation on a sloped ceiling.

• For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7' above the oor.

• Do not locate the fan in a doorway or above a swinging door.

• In any installation, the tips of the blades must be at least 18" from the wall in order to provide sufcient clearance for the blades.

• In bedrooms, fans work best when mounted above the foot of the bed.

• Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of clearance to avoid damage from pool cues.

• In kitchens be sure to allow for open cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.

• Do not install a fan close to, or over, a pool or spa. High humidity combined with corrosive gases will destroy the nish and warp the blades.

Fan Size

Variable fan speed capability permits the use of a full-size 52" fan even in smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans may be needed.

GETTING STARTED

Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

If you do not have an existing xture located where you wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling xture outlet box must be installed and wired.

WARNING!

Toreducetheriskofre,electricalshock,or

personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable Fan Support of 31.8 kg (70 lbs.) Or less” using the mounting hardware provided with the outlet box.

Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

After turning the power OFF at its source (either the circuit breaker or fuse box), lower the old xture and disconnect the wiring. Check the ceiling xture outlet box to be sure it is marked “Approved for Ceiling Fan Mounting.” If it is not, a new box must be installed.

Note: The weight of this fan is 28 pounds.
