11-1. Restore power at the main electrical panel and turn on the wall
switch. e light kit should turn ON.
Note: To turn on the light without the remote, turn o the wall
switch for 5 seconds, then back on. e light kit will turn on at
maximum brightness.
11-2. Press the remote control’s HIGH speed button. e fan should
start and reach its maximum speed.
Note: For everyday operation, leave the wall switch ON. If the
remote control will not be used for 5 days or more, turn the wall
switch OFF.
11-3. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward
(counterclockwise blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the
room with a direct breeze. In cold weather, 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.
11-4. For cleaning nishes, 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 nish.
11-5. Clean wood nish blades with a furniture polishing cloth.
Occasionally, apply a light coat of furniture polish for added
protection and beauty. Clean painted and high-gloss blades in
the same manner as the fan nish.
