Making the electrical connections

WARNING:

 Check to see that all connections are tight, 

including ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire 
nuts, except for the ground wire.

NOTE:

 The fan must be installed at a maximum distance of 

20 ft. from the remote control for proper signal transmission 
between the remote control and the fan's receiving unit.

CAUTION:

 Do not use with a wall light dimmer switch.

If you feel you do not have enough electrical wiring knowledge 
or experience, have your fan installed by a licensed electrician.

Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your household 
wiring. Use the plastic wire nuts (AA or BB) with your fan. 
Secure the plastic wire nuts (AA or BB) with electrical tape. 
Make sure there are no loose strands or connections.

     Make wire connections from the fan to the receiver (J) 

and outlet box as follows, using the wire nuts (BB).

      

 

From Fan                         To Receiver

Blue Wire --------------------- Blue Wire "For Light"
Black Wire -------------------- Black Wire "To Motor L"
White Wire -------------------- White Wire "To Motor N"

 

    Make wire connections from the receiver (J) and fan to 

the outlet box as follows, using the wire nuts (AA).

 
       

From Receiver                 To Outlet Box

Black Wire "AC in L" ---------- Black Wire (Hot)
White Wire "AC in N" --------- White Wire (Neutral)

      From Fan                         To Outlet Box

Green Wires* ----------------- Green or Bare Wire (Ground)

* There are two green grounding leads: one from the mounting 
bracket (A) and one from the hanger ball/downrod assembly (D).

 

    Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading them 

apart so the green (ground) and white wires will be on 
one side of the outlet box and the black and blue wires 
will be on the other side. Carefully tuck the connections 
up into the outlet box.
