WARNING

General

Your Emerson Ceiling Fan/Light Wall Control
consists of a wall mount transmitter and a
receiver which is mounted under the fan ceiling
cover. The wall control is designed to separately
control your ceiling fan speed and light intensity.

Code switches in the wall control may be set in
32 different positions. If your fan and light go on
and off without using your control, you may be
getting interference from other wall units such as
garage door openers, car alarms or security
systems. To remedy this situation, simply
change the combination code in your wall control
and receiver. (See Figure 1.)

Setting Operating Frequency of

Wall Control

(Figure 1)

Your wall control has code switches which must
be set in one of 32 possible code combinations.
The five levers (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) on
the switches are factory-set in the ON (up)
position. Change the switch settings as follows:

1. Slide the five switch levers in the wall control

to your choice of ON (up) or down positions.
Use a ball-point pen or small screwdriver and
slide the levers firmly up or down.

2. When the power is restored after installation,

push and hold the fan off button ( ) for
3 to 5 seconds to set the code in the receiver.

3. The sixth switch marked ON and I is for

dimming control of lights: Set switch to ON
to allow for dimming of the lights.
Set switch to I for no dimming of the lights
such as for fluorescent bulbs.

ON - Dim: Incandescent and Halogen Bulbs
I - No Dim: Fluorescent and LED Bulbs
