How to Wire Your Ceiling Fan
If you feel that you do not have enough electrical
wiring knowledge or experience, have your fan
installed by a licensed electrician.
WARNING
!
To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure electricity
is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is
grounded, contact a licensed electrician for advice,
as it must be grounded for safe operation.
1. Connect the green grounding lead from the hanger
ball and the green grounding lead from the hanger
bracket to the grounding conductor of supply (this
may be a bare wire or wire with green colored
insulation). Securely connect wires with wire
connectors supplied.
NOTE: If you are using an Emerson Light Fixture
with your fan, see Light Fixture Owner's Manual
for wiring.
2. Securely connect the fan motor white wire to the
supply white (neutral) wire using wire connector
supplied (Figure 12). Securely connect the fan
motor black wire to the supply black (hot) wire
using wire connector supplied (Figure 12).
3. If a downlight is not being installed, cap the blue
wire using a supplied wire connector. If a downlight
is being installed, a separate hot supply must be
available or an optional Emerson accessory control
must be used. Follow the installation instruction of
the accessory control, if used.
4. If accessory uplight (AL100) is not being installed,
cap the yellow wire using a supplied wire
connector. If the AL100 is being installed, a
separate hot supply must be available or an
optional Emerson accessory control must be used.
Follow the installation instruction of both the AL100
and the accessory control, if used.
5. After connections have been made, turn leads
upward and carefully push leads into the outlet box,
with the white and green leads on one side of the
outlet box and the black, blue and yellow leads on
the other side of the outlet box.
WARNING
!
Check to see that all connections are tight, including
ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire
connectors, except for the ground wire. Do not
operate fan until blades are in place. Noise and fan
damage could result.
6. Screw the two threaded studs (supplied) into the
tapped holes in the hanger bracket.
7. Lift the ceiling cover up to the threaded studs and
turn until studs protrude through the holes in the
ceiling cover (Figure 13).
8. Secure the ceiling cover in place by sliding
lockwashers over the threaded studs and installing
the two knurled knobs (supplied). (Figure 13).

Tighten the knurled knobs securely until the ceiling
cover fits snugly against the ceiling and the hole in
the ceiling cover is clear of the downrod. Your fan
is now wired to be turned on and off from the fan
switch.

To avoid possible fire or shock, make sure that the
electrical wires are completely inside the outlet box
and not pinched between the ceiling cover and the
ceiling.
