WARNING:
To avoid fire, shock, and serious personal injury, follow these
instructions.
Safety Instructions
1. Read your owner’s manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service
panel disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a
warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Be careful of the fan and blades when cleaning, painting, or working near the fan.
Always turn off the power to the ceiling fan before servicing.
4. Do not put anything into the fan blades while they are turning.
5. Do not operate reversing switch until fan blades have come to a complete stop.
Additional Safety Instructions for Installation
1. To avoid possible shock, be sure electricity is turned off at the fuse box before
wiring, and do not operate fan without blades.
2. The installation is to be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-1999 and Local Codes. Use the National Electrical Code if Local Codes do not
exist. The ceiling fan must be grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock. Electrical installation should be made or approved by a licensed electrician.
3. The outlet box and joist must be securely mounted and capable of reliably
supporting at least 50 pounds. Use only U.L. outlet boxes listed as “Acceptable for
Fan Support”, and use the mounting screws provided with the outlet box. Most
outlet boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures are not
acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.
4. The longer downrod furnished with the fan provides the minimum
recommended floor to fan blade clearance for a 9 foot ceiling. The 8” downrod
(supplied) must be used for an 8 foot ceiling.
5. The fan must be mounted with the fan blades at least 7 feet from the floor to prevent
accidental contact with the fan blades.
6. Follow the recommended instructions for the proper method of wiring your ceiling
fan. If you do not know enough about electrical wiring, have your fan installed by a
licensed electrician.
