Problem

Solution

Fan will not start.

Fan sounds noisy.

1.

Check main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.

2.

Check line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch housing.

CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

3.

Check battery in the transmitter. Does the liquid crystal display (LCD) activate and is the low
battery light lit? Are you standing close enough to the fan (normal range is 10-20 feet)? Are the dip
switch settings the same on the transmitter (hand unit) and receiver? REMEMBER TO TURN
OFF POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CHECKING THE DIP SWITCH SETTINGS IN
RECEIVER. Batteries should be changed every three months or as needed.

1.

Make sure all motor housing screws are snug.

2.

Make sure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.

3.

Make sure wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall of the switch
housing.
CAUTION: Make sure main power is off.

4.

Allow a 24-hour "breaking-in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan disappear during this
time.

5.

If using the Ceiling Fan light kit, make sure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that
the light bulb is also secure.

6.

Make sure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling.
It should not touch the ceiling.

7.

Make sure your ceiling box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the hanger
bracket and ceiling box.
