FOUR SEASONS
Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. The location of the fan, air circulation,
and fan size are all important factors to consider before installation.
Location
Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every room in your home. We suggest you follow these mounting
recommendations as you decide where to install your Casablanca fan.
• For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7' above the floor.
• Do not locate the fan in a doorway or above a swinging door.
• In any installation, the tips of the blades must be at least 18" from the wall in order to
provide sufficient clearance for the blades.
• In bedrooms, fans work best when mounted above the foot of the bed.
• Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of clearance to avoid damage from
pool cues.
• In kitchens be sure to allow for open cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.
• Do not install a fan close to, or over, a pool or spa. High humidity combined with
corrosive gases will destroy the finish and warp the blades.
Fan Size
Variable fan speed capability permits the use of a full-size 52" fan even in
smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans may be needed.
Unpacking: Before assembling and installing your ceiling fan, remove all parts from the shipping cartons and check them
against the parts listed here. Before discarding packaging material, be certain that all parts have been removed.
Carton Contents
The fan carton contains the fan body, warranty card, owner's
manual, and all the parts necessary to assemble and install
your Casablanca ceiling fan. These parts are shown at the
start of each installation section. Before you start, go through
this Owner's Manual and confirm that you have all the parts
shown in each section.
Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fixture located where you
wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling fixture
outlet box must be installed and wired.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked
acceptable for ceiling fan support using the
mounting hardware provided with the outlet box.

MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
Be sure to use only genuine Casablanca blades. The blade
shrink wrap holds 5 blades of matched weight. If more than
one fan is being installed, be sure not to mix blade sets.
GETTING STARTED
TIP: The packing styrofoam makes a handy work bench.
Remove the bottom foam from the box.
CAUTION: When removing the shrink wrap,
be careful not to scratch the blades.
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either circuit breaker
or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect the wiring.
Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure that it is
marked 'Approved for ceiling fan mounting' . If it is not, a new
box must be installed.
NOTE: The fan weight is 17 pounds.
