Electrical Requirements

!
Before assembling your ceiling fan, refer to section on
proper method of wiring your fan (page 7). If you feel
you do not have enough wiring knowledge or
experience, have your fan installed by a licensed
electrician.
If your fan is to replace an existing ceiling light fixture,
turn electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.
!
Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned
off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must
be in accordance with National and Local codes and
the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a
precaution against possible electrical shock.
!
To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully.
Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a licensed
electrician.
