Cautions and Warnings

• READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

• Use only Hunter replacement parts.

• To reduce the risk of personal injury, install this light ﬁxture only on Hunter® fan types A through Z. Note: e fan type can be found on the ceiling fan package or on the nameplate label located on top of the motor housing of the ceiling fan.

• To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing light ﬁxtures, disconnect the power by turning oﬀ the circuit breakers both to the outlet box and to its 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.

• Connect house wiring to the fan before attaching the light ﬁxture to the fan.

• All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a qualiﬁed electrician.

Installation Methods of Hunter® Ceiling Fans Type A-Z

Removable Switch Housing

Your ® light kit can be installed in one of four ways. e steps in this manual include instructions for all four installation methods: Installation directly on the ceiling, installation on fans with a removeable switch housing, fans with a non-removeable switch housing, and e Hunter Original.

Preparing the Light Kit:

1. Disconnect power by turning oﬀ the circuit breakers both to the outlet box and to its associated wall switch location.

2. e shade cover plate comes in a choice of decorative ﬁnishes. In addition, the cover plate for the ceilingmounted light has no hole in the side; the cover plate for the fan-mounted light has a hole in the side. Choose the cover plate that applies to your decorating preference and your mounting preference.

Directly onto ceiling

1 • Installing the Light Kit on the Ceiling

1. If you are replacing an existing light ﬁxture, disconnect and remove the old ﬁxture and mounting bracket. Leave the wires coming from the outlet box exposed.

2. Pre-install the two #8-32 screws, two corresponding washers, and two #8-32 nuts on the hanger bracket. Tighten nuts securely. Note: e hanger bracket should be positioned so that the two #8-32 screws are coming down and the green grounding screw is going up towards the ceiling.

3. Using the screw holes located on the electrical box, secure the hanger bracket to the electrical box by threading the screws through the slotted holes in the hanger bracket. Tighten screws. Note: e screws for installing the hanger bracket to the electrical box should be installed in the opposite direction as the screws for installing the ceiling plate cover to the hanger bracket.

4. Locate the metal (uncoated) ground wire from the light ﬁxture and the supply ground wire coming out of the electrical box. Connect the metal ground wire and the supply ground wire underneath the green ground screw on the hanger bracket. Tighten the green ground screw as needed.

5. Connect the white wire from the light ﬁxture to the white supply wire coming out of the ceiling. Connect the black wire from the light ﬁxture to the black supply wire coming out of the ceiling. Secure all wire connections using approved wire connectors. To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place a wire connector over them, then twist the wire connector clockwise until tight.

6. Spread the electrical splices so that the black wires are on one side of the outlet box and the white wires are on the other side.
