Cautions and Warnings

• Use only Hunter replacement parts .
• To reduce the risk of personal injury, attach the fan directly to the 

support structure of the building according to these instructions, 
and use only the hardware supplied .

• To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing 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 .

• 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 .

• To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the blade 

attachment system when installing, balancing, or cleaning the fan . 
Never insert foreign objects between rotating fan blades .

• To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or motor damage, do not 

use a solid-state speed control with this fan . Use only Hunter speed 
controls .
