Care And Cleaning - Regency THE INDOOR/OUTDOOR FAN Owner's Manual

ARE AND LEANING
Periodic cleaning of your new ceiling fan is about the only maintenance that is needed. Only use a soft brush or lint free cloth
to avoid scratching the finish. DO NOT use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or the blades
and/or create the possibility of electrical shock.
Periodically it may be necessary to re-tighten blade to blade arm screws or blade arm to motor screws to prevent clicking or
humming sound during operation. This is especially true in climates with broad temperature and humidity ranges and in fans
with painted or high gloss blades.
When dusting the blades, you must support the blade to prevent its bending - no pressure should be applied to the blades. If you
experience any flaws in the operation of your fan, please check the following points:

• Check main and branch circuit breakers and/or fuses.
• Check line wire connections to fan and switch housing wiring.
• Make sure a fresh battery is in the remote control transmitter.
• Make sure the codes on both the transmitter and receiver are set the same.
• Fully extend the receiver antenna inside of canopy.
I I f f f f a a n n i i s s n n o o i i s s y y : :
• Check that all screws in motor housing are snug (but not overtight).
• Check that the screws securing blades to the motor are tight.
• Check that wire connectors in the canopy are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the canopy.
• • Check that all glassware is finger tight and that bulb(s) are well held in the sockets.
• Check that the canopy is firmly attached to hanging bracket and not vibrating against ceiling.
I I f f f f a a n n w w o o b b b b l l e e s s : :
• Check that all blades are firmly screwed into blade arms.
• Check to make sure that all glassware and shades are fastened properly.
• Wobble can also result from even the smallest deviations in distance from blade tip to blade tip - if measurements from
blade tip to blade tip are not equal, loosen screws connecting blade to bracket one at a time and adjust blade(s) so that
distances are equal. Interchanging adjacent blades may redistribute mass and result in smoother operation.
• Check to make sure that all hanger bracket screws and electrical box fasteners are tight. If electrical box is not tight to
the building, the whole fan, bracket, and electrical box may be moving as a result of the wobble. This can be danger-
ous if the electrical box should work loose from the building.
