WARNINGS

w.1 - To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or personal

injury, mount fan directly from building structure and/or an

outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of 70 lbs (31.8 kg) and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.

w.2 - To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or

servicing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch

location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off

position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a

tag, to the service panel.

w.3 - To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or motor damage, use only Casablanca Solid State Speed Controls.

w.4 - To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade

brackets when installing the blade brackets, balancing the blades,

or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.

Troubleshooting

www.CasablancaFanCo.com

1.888.227.2178

Fan doesn’t work

• Press a fan speed button (1-4).

• Check the circuit breaker to ensure the power is turned on.

• Check the wall control battery.

• Make sure the blades spin freely.

• Turn off power from the circuit

breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the wiring diagram

on pages 10-11.

• Check the plug connection in the switch housing.

Excessive wobbling

• Tighten all of the blade and

blade iron screws until they

are snug.

• Turn the power off, support

the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is

properly seated.

• Use the provided balancing

kit and instructions to balance

the fan.

Noisy Operation

• Tighten the blade and blade iron screws until they are snug.

• Check to see if any of the blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades.

Remote does not work

• Make sure the battery is installed correctly.

• Install a new battery.

• If the remote still does not

work, you may need to pair

your remote. To prevent faulty operation, please disconnect power (at the wall switch, breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing. To pair: cycle power

to the fan by turning power off and back on at the wall switch

(or circuit breaker if necessary).

Within three minutes, press and

hold both the Fan Off button and the 4 button for four seconds to pair the remote. If applicable, the

fan will turn on and the lights

will ash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.

1.888.227.2178

Installing Multiple Fans with Independently Operating Remote Controls

To install multiple fans with independently operating remote controls, there is no need to

perform any pairing procedures. Each set of receiver/transmitter is already paired. Simply

install each receiver into a fan and use the appropriate transmitter to operate each fan.

If your remote is not working, see the “Remote does not work” section on the previous page.

Installing Multiple Fans Operating on a Single Remote Control

To have multiple fans operated by a single remote control, you must pair the transmitter to each

additional receiver. The receiver that shipped with your fan is already paired to the transmitter.

Note: To prevent faulty operation, you MUST disconnect power (at the wall switch,

breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing each fan.

For each additional fan, ensure that a compatible receiver is installed. Disconnect power from all

other fans while pairing. To pair: cycle power to the fan by turning power off and back on at

the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both

the Fan Off button and the 4 button for four seconds to pair the remote. If applicable, the

fan will turn on and the lights will ash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.

Installing One Fan Operating on Multiple Remote Controls

To have multiple remote controls operate one fan, you must pair each additional transmitter

to the receiver in the fan. The transmitter that shipped with your fan is already paired.

Note: To prevent faulty operation, please disconnect power (at the wall switch,

breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while pairing.

For each additional transmitter, cycle power to the fan by turning power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the 4 button for four seconds to pair the remote. If applicable, the

fan will turn on and the lights will ash and stay on to indicate successful pairing.

“Unpairing” Procedure for Faulty Operation of Remote Controls

If a transmitter is mistakenly operating a fan, you need to “unpair” the transmitter from that

fan’s receiver. The “unpairing” procedure is the same as the pairing procedure.

Note: To prevent faulty operation, you MUST disconnect power (at the wall switch,

breaker, or fan) from all other ceiling fans within range while “unpairing” a fan.

Disconnect power from all other fans while “unpairing.” Then, cycle power to the fan you

wish to “unpair” by turning power off and back on at the wall switch (or circuit breaker

if necessary). Within three minutes, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the 4

button for four seconds to “unpair” the remote. If applicable, the fan will turn off and the

lights will ash and turn off to indicate successful “unpairing.”
