2 • Installation Prep aration

Notes:

1. 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.

2. 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. 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 the one the

receiver is connected to.

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

3. For use only with electrically reversible ceiling fans rated at 1.0 amp or less,

44092-01 • 12/15/10 • Hunter Fan Company

and fan incandescent light kits rated at 300 watts or less.

4. Not for use with shaded-pole motors, Hunter 42” Low Prole fans, and

Hunter Baseball fans. Not recommended for use with the Hunter Original®. For Hunter Original® series fans, use Hunter control model numbers 27187, 22691, or 27189.

5. Medium and Low fan speeds are determined by the control and thus may vary from the factory settings due to normal motor variations.

6. For use with Hunter Hanging Systems (excludes Hunter Original) on at

ceilings or angled ceilings with a pitch up to 34°.

7. Not for use in applications where the fan does not have a wall switch.

Any changes or modications to this equipment not expressly approved by Hunter Fan Company will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

USE THE PULL CHAIN SWITCH TO SET THE FAN SPEED TO THE HIGH POSITION BEFORE INSTALLATION. DO NOT USE THE PULL CHAIN TO CHANGE THE FAN SPEED AFTER INSTALLATION, AS DAMAGE TO YOUR FAN OR REMOTE MAY RESULT. THE SPEED OF THE FAN SHOULD ONLY BE CHANGED BY THE HUNTER CONTROL!!

BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS CONTROL:

3 • R eceiver Installation

1. USE THE PULL CHAIN SWITCH TO SET THE FAN SPEED TO THE HIGH POSITION BEFORE INSTALLATION. DO NOT USE THE PULL CHAIN TO CHANGE THE FAN SPEED AFTER

INSTALLATION, AS DAMAGE TO YOUR CEILING FAN OR UNIVERSAL CONTROL MAY RESULT.

THE SPEED OF THE FAN SHOULD ONLY BE CHANGED BY THE HUNTER CONTROL!!

2. Set the ceiling fan light kit to the ON position before installation.

Installation Instructions:

1. Install the ceiling fan according to its instructions, up to the point of making the electrical connections. Connect receiver to

ceiling fan according to the mounting types shown on the next page. Determine your ceiling fan mounting type from the images on Pages 4-5. Most installations will be one of these ve types.

2. If the fan is already installed, turn the power OFF at the main electrical panel. Reverse the installation procedure according to the fan instructions, to the point of disconnecting the fan wiring. Connect the receiver to the ceiling fan according to the mounting type as shown on Pages 4-5.

IMPORTANT! If your ceiling fan light kit is using incandescent bulbs, then slide the CFL / INC switch to the INC position. (Fig. 2) If your ceiling fan light kit is using compact uorescent light bulbs (CFL), then slide the CFL / INC switch to the CFL

position. NOTE: When the switch is in the CFL position, the dimming feature is disabled, and you will not be able to dim the light bulbs. This feature is to protect both your bulbs and your receiver as CFL bulbs are not able to dim and will malfunction if dimming is attempted.

Low Prole Style I (Figure 1): Secure receiver to the fan plate above the motor with UL-listed cable ties (not included).

Connect wiring as shown in Figure 6. Extend antenna through one of the ceiling plate openings (approximately 3–6˝).

NOTE: Some fans may have considerable excess lead wire. For easier canopy installation, cut the excess wire leaving a minimum of 6 inches remaining. Restrip the fan lead wires 1/2 inch. Place remaining excess wire into the ceiling electrical box

as needed.

BEFORE INSTALLING THE CONTROL:

with the antenna wire, slide receiver inside mounting bracket. If a ground wire mounting screw prevents the receiver from sliding into the bracket, move ground wire and screw to an unused hole at the top of the bracket or secure with a canopy mounting screw. The bracket must remain properly grounded. Connect wiring as

shown in Figure 6. Extend antenna above the receiver (approximately 3 – 6˝).

3 • R eceiver Installation

1. Use the 2 large (orange) wire connectors supplied to connect the receiver and house wiring, then use the 3 small (blue) wire connectors supplied to connect

the receiver and ceiling fan wiring. Refer to the Wiring Diagram in Figure 6.

If you are installing the remote with a Hunter Fan, the wire colors in the fan will be as follows:

Light Power = Black with a White Stripe Fan Power = Black Common = White

*These are only the Hunter fan wire colors. Other

brands may use different colors.

2. Be sure the antenna is positioned securely, so it does not interfere with the

ceiling fan motor. Do not modify or damage the antenna wire, as control

performance may be reduced. After securing the receiver, antenna, and

wiring, nish hanging the ceiling fan according to its instructions.

3. Restore power at main electrical panel.
