other side. Carefully tuck the wire 
connections up into the outlet box.

Note:

 Fan must be installed at a maximum 

distance of 30 feet from the transmitting 
unit for proper signal transmission 
between the transmitting unit and the 
fan's receiving unit.

Step 2.

 Slide the canopy up to hanger 

bracket and place the key hole on the 
canopy over the screw on the hanger 
bracket, turn canopy until it locks in place 
at the narrow section of the key holes.

Step 3.

 Align the circular hole on canopy 

with the remaining hole on the hanger 
bracket, secure by tightening the two set 
screws.
