Care and Cleaning

WARNING: Make sure the power is off before cleaning
your fan.
Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance. Do not use water when cleaning, as this could damage the motor,
or possibly cause an electrical shock. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed
with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
You do not need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated, sealed ball bearings.
Always unplug the fan before cleaning, disassembly or servicing.
