In warm weather

, use 

downward air flow pattern

In cold weather

, use upward 

air flow pattern

8-1.  Turn on electrical power to the fan.
8-2.  The fan pull chain controls power to the fan. The pull chain has 

four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low, and Off.

•  Pull the chain slowly to change settings.
•  Release slowly to prevent the chain from recoiling into the 

blades.

•  The chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if the 

chain is jerked. If this happens, simply reinsert the chain into 
the connector.

8-3.  The light pull chain controls the power to the light fixture. The 

chain has two settings: ON and OFF. 

8-4. 

Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclockwise 
blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a direct 
breeze. In winter, having the fan draw air upward (clockwise blade 
rotation) will distribute the warmer air trapped at the ceiling 
around the room without causing a draft. 

8-5.  For cleaning finishes, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to prevent 

scratching. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier 
dust. Remove surface smudges or accumulated dirt and dust using 
a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. You may use 
an artistic agent, but never abrasive cleaning agents as they will 
damage the finish.

8-6.  The blades on this fan have been treated with Hunter’s Dust 

Armor protection, making the blades less likely to attract dust and 
dirt. Use a dry or slightly damp lint free cloth to clean the blades. 
Do not use a furniture polish or any other cleaners that leave any 
residue, as they will damage the protective Dust Armor on the 
blades.

To Change Airflow Direction

Turn the fan off and let it come to a complete 
stop. Slide the reversing switch on the fan to the 
opposite position. Restart fan.
