11-1. Restore power at the main electrical panel and turn on the wall
switch. The light kit should turn ON. To dim the light, hold the
light button down until you reach your desired brightness. Push
the light button again to turn off the light.
Note: To turn on the light without the remote, turn off the wall
switch for 5 seconds, then back on. The light kit will turn on at
maximum brightness.
11-2. Press the remote control's HIGH speed button. The 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 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.
11-5. Clean wood finish 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 finish.
To Change Airflow Direction
Press the reversing switch on the remote
while the fan is running.
