READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Safety Information

1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure electricity has been turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning.

2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code “ANSI/NFPA 70-1999” and local electrical codes. Electrical installation should be performed by a qualiﬁed licensed electrician.

3. The outlet box and support structure must be securely mounted and capable of reliably supporting a minimum of 35 lbs (15.9 kg) or less. Use only UL-listed outlet boxes marked “FOR FAN SUPPORT.”

4. The fan must be mounted with a minimum of 7 ft (2.1m) clearance from the trailing edge of the blades to the ﬂoor.

5. Avoid placing objects in the path of the blades.

6. To avoid personal injury or damage to the fan and other items, be cautious when working around or cleaning the fan.

7. Do not use water or detergents when cleaning the fan or fan blades. A dry dust cloth or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable for most cleaning.

8. After making electrical connections, spliced conductors should be turned upward and pushed carefully up into the outlet box. The wires should be spread apart with the grounded conductor and the equipment-grounding conductor on one side of the outlet box and ungrounded conductor on the other side of the outlet box.

9. All setscrews must be checked and retightened where necessary before installation.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock or ﬁre, do

not use this fan with any solid-state fan speed control device. It will permanently damage the electronic circuitry.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not

bend the blade arms (also referred to as ﬂanges), when installing the brackets, balancing the blades or cleaning the fan.

WARNING: Do not insert foreign objects between rotating

fan blades.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock or

personal injury, mount the fan to the outlet box marked acceptable for fan support with the screws provided with the outlet box.

10. This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Warning: Changes or modiﬁcations to this unit not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, use only

the screws provided with the outlet box.

DUAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

This ceiling fan is supplied with two types of hanging assemblies: the standard ceiling installation using the downrod with ball and socket mounting, and the "close-to-ceiling" mounting. The "close-to-ceiling" mounting is recommended in rooms with less than 8 ft. ceilings or in areas where additional space is desired from the ﬂoor to the fan blades.

When using the standard downrod installation, the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades will be approximately 12 in. The "close-to-ceiling" installation reduces the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blades to approximately 9 in.

Once you have decided which ceiling installation you will use, refer to the corresponding sections and procedures during the assembly period. Where necessary, each section of the instructions will note the different procedures to follow for the two types of installation.
