SAFETY FIRST

Safety and the proper operation of y our Casablanca fan both requir e a thorough knowledge o f the product and proper installation; therefor e, bef ore attempting to install and operate your Casablanca f an, read this owner’s manual completely and carefully. Retain this manual for future reference.
CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, make certain that electricity is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before attempting any installation procedure.
BEFORE YOU START
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1993 and the appropriate local electrical
codes. The National Electric Code requires proper grounding as a precaution against electrical shock. A qualified electri­cian should be consulted if you are unsure.
• 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. Casablanca extension poles are available for sloped or high ceiling installations.
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 fixture is 3.8 amps. The fan uses about 1 amp or 100 watts. Maximum light current is 2.8 amps or 340 watts of lighting.
Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy hatch, make sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.
For best performance and for your warranty to be valid,
use only genuine Casablanca blades, light fixtures, and accessories.
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 and report any such damage directly to your authorized Casablanca dealer.
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 servicing it, working on it, or replacing light bulbs.
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.
Never operate a fan that has been damaged in any way. Contact Casablanca Fan Company by calling 1-888-227-2178, or contact your local authorized Casablanca dealer for assistance in obtaining service.

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS

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.
• For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7 above the floor.
• 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 sufficient 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 finish 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.

When to Use Extension Poles
For best performance and best appearance, an extension pole should be used with your Casablanca fan when installing on high (cathedral) ceilings or sloped ceil­ings. Casablanca offers standard poles in increments of 6 up to 5. Custom poles are available in lengths up to 10. See your Authorized Casablanca Dealer for details.
Note: Fan may wobble or vibrate if
pole length is not long enough and inside blade is too close to downslope or side wall. Extending pole length will usually solve problem.
Calculation of 32°
Use the tear-off Ceiling Angle Template card inserted in the back of this manual, it provides you with a simple ‘go’ or ‘no-go’ for installing your fan on a sloped ceiling.
Note: The canopy cover (Step 11) can
NOT be used on a sloped ceiling.
BLADES MUST BE A
MINIMUM OF 7
ABOVE THE FLOOR
7 MINIMUM
EXAMPLE 1
This slope is less than 32˚. It is OK to install your fan.
EXAMPLE 2
This slope is 32˚. This is the maximum slope that will allow the fan to hang straight down. It is OK to install your fan.
EXAMPLE 3
This slope is more than 32˚. Your fan will not hang straight down, an adaptor is necessary. Contact your local Authorized Casablanca Dealer in regards to purchasing a “Slope Ceiling Adaptor.”
