What to Expect with Your Installation

Know your wiring

If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a

qualied electrician.

You may need a

friend to help you.

Check box to see fan weight

Assess location

30 inches

from blade tip to nearest wall or obstruction

7 feet

from bottom

edge of blade

to the oor

Select a downrod length

Assess ceiling angle

Must be able to secure the fan to building structure or fan-rated outlet box

Standard Downrod

for ceilings 8-10 feet high

Shorter Downrod

for fans installed close to ceiling

Longer Downrod

for ceilings 10 feet or higher

Ceiling angles greater than 34° will require an

Angled Mounting Kit. See page 4 for details.

w.1 - To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or personal injury,

mount fan directly from building structure and/or an outlet box marked

acceptable for fan support of 70 lbs (31.8 kg) and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box.

w.2 - To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or servicing your

fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet

box and 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. w.3 - To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, or motor damage, use only

Hunter Solid State Speed Controls. w.4 - To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade brackets when

installing the blade brackets, balancing the blades, or cleaning the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between rotating fan blades.

c.1 - All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a qualied electrician.

c.2 - Use only Hunter replacement parts.

Troubleshooting

Excessive wobbling

• Make sure the blades are properly installed on the

blade iron posts.

• Turn the power off, support the fan carefully, and check that the hanger ball is

properly seated.

• Use the provided balancing kit and instructions to

balance the fan.

Noisy Operation

• Make sure the blades are properly installed on the

blade iron posts.

• Check to see if any of the

blades are cracked. If so, replace all of the blades.

Wireless Issues

• Turning the fan on and off at the switch can resolve some wireless issues.

• Reset the Wi-Fi module by removing

the battery door. Press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds. The fan and light LEDs will flash once the module has been reset.

Fan doesn’t work

• Make sure power switch is on.

• Check the circuit breaker to

ensure the power is turned on.

• Make sure the blades spin

freely.

• Turn off power from the circuit breaker, then loosen the canopy and check all the connections according to the

wiring diagram on pages 9.

• Check the plug connection in

the switch housing.

Remote control of fan is erratic

• Make sure the battery is

installed correctly.

• Install a fresh battery.

Transmitter only works when held at close range

• Change battery.

If you have multiple remotes or multiple remote-controlled fans installed on the same circuit breaker and you are experiencing

interference or faulty operation of your remote controls, please go to www.HunterFan.com/FAQs and click “How do I properly install multiple remote-controlled fans?” for information on how to correct
