Troubleshooting 

Problem

Problem

Solution

Solution

     Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.

     Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.

     Check to make sure the frequency switches from the remote control and receiver are set to the same 

frequency.

     Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

     Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade to the motor hub are tight.

     Make sure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch 

housing.

     Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this 

time.

     Make sure there is a short distance from the ceiling to the canopy.  It should not touch the ceiling.

     Make sure your ceiling box is secure and that rubber isolator pads are used between the mounting 

bracket and outlet box.

The fan will not start.

The fan sounds noisy.

WARNING:

 Make sure the power is off at the electrical 

panel box before you attempt any repairs. Refer to step 7 
“Making the electrical connections” on page 11.
