Safety Instructions
1.Read your owner’s manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
2.Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3.Be careful of the fan and blades when cleaning, painting, or working near the fan. Always turn off the power to the ceiling fan before servicing.
4.Do not put anything into the fan blades while they are turning.
5.Do not operate reversing switch until fan blades have come to a complete stop.
Additional Safety Instructions for Installation
1.To avoid possible shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the fuse box before wiring, and do not operate fan without blades.
2.All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Codes “ANSI/NFPA
3.The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting at least 50 pounds. Use only U.L. outlet boxes listed as “Acceptable for Fan Support”, and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.

Electrical Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit.
The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of withstanding a load of at least 50 pounds.
!WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked “Acceptable for Fan Support of 50 lbs. or less”, and use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture, turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove the existing light fixture.
!WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must be in accordance with National and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.
Assembly Instructions
CAUTION: The blade assemblies must be mounted on the motor assembly so that the raised lip edge is facing up (Figure 1).
1.Rotate the motor hub so the notched area is above the screw hole in the motor hub. Install one blade assembly on the top of the motor assembly using two M6 x 12mm pan head screws and two M6 lockwashers (supplied) (Figure 1). Repeat this procedure for the remaining two blade assemblies.

Energy Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely heavily on the proper installation and use of the ceiling fan. Here are a few tips to ensure quality and product performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location. Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the middle of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor and 18 inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows, install the fan 8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow. Consult your Emerson Retailer for optional mounting accessories.
Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summer, use the ceiling fan in the
comfortable breeze, lower speeds consume less energy. In the winter, reverse the motor and operate the ceiling fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling down into the occupied space. Remember to adjust your thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional energy and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!
Turn Off When Not in the Room. Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If the room is unoccupied, turn off the ceiling fan to save energy.
!WARNING: For your own safety, turn off power at fuse box or circuit breaker before trouble shooting your fan.
