Installation
MOUNTING OPTIONS
WARNING:To reduce the risk of re,electric shock, or personal injury, mount the fan to an outlet box marked"acceptable for fan support of 35 lbs. (15.9kg) or less", and use the screws provided with the outlet box. An outlet box commonly used for the support of lighting xtures may not be acceptable for fan support and may need to be replaced. If in doubt, consult a quali ed electrician.
If your ceiling fan does not have an existing UL-listed mounting box, then install one using the following instructions:
 Disconnect the power by removing the fuses or turning off
the circuit breakers.
 Secure the outlet box (not included) directly to the building
structure. Use the appropriate fasteners and materials (not included). The outlet box and its bracing must be able to fully support the weight of the moving fan (at least 35 lbs.). Do not use a plastic outlet box. The illustrations below show three different ways to mount the outlet box.

Item # 1000*****/1000***** Item # FC132-BJRL/FC140-BJRL
NOTE: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The maximum angle allowable is 30° away from horizontal.
Hanger bar
Outlet Box If the canopy touches the downrod, then remove the decorative canopy bottom cover and turn the canopy 180° before attaching the canopy to the mounting plate. To hang your fan where there is an exisiting xture but no ceiling joist you may need an installation hanger bar as shown above (available at any Home Depot store).

5 Making the electrical connections
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, ensure the electricity is turned off at the main fuse box before wiring.
WARNING: To avoid possible electrical shock, ensure the electricity is turned off at the circuit breaker or main fuse box before wiring.
WARNING: Check to see that all connections are tight,including the ground, and that no bare wire is visible at the wire nuts, except for the ground wire.
NOTE: Cut the extra wire, if you feel the excess wire too long, then follow the step connet wire.
Insert the receiver (J) into the mounting bracket (A)with the at side of the receiver (J) facing the ceiling.
Follow the steps below to connect the fan to your house supply wires. Secure the wire nuts supplied with your fan by wrapping the connections with electrical tape.  Motor to Receiver Electrical Connections:
Connect the ORANGE wire from the fan to the ORANGE wire marked "Light +" from the Receiver. Connect the BLUE wire from the fan to the BLUE wire marked "Light -" from the Receiver. Connect the YELLOW wire from the fan to the YELLOW wire marked" V" from the Receiver. Connect the RED wire from the fan to the RED wire marked" U" from the Receiver. Connect the GREY wire from the fan to the GREY wire marked" W" from the Receiver.
Note: Fan must be installed from a maximum distance of 40 feet from the transmitting unit for proper signal transmission between the transmitting unit and the fan's receiving unit.  Receiver to House Supply Wires Electrical connections:Connect the WHITE
wire(Neutral) from the outlet box to the WHITE wire marked " POWER N" from the Receiver.Connect the BLACK wire(Hot) from the outlet box to the BLACK wire marker " POWER L" from the Receiver.
 If your outlet box has a GROUND wire (Green or Bare Copper),connect this wire to the Hanger Ball and Hanger Bracket and receiver Ground wires.If your outlet box does not have a Ground Wire, then connect the Hanger Ball and Hanger Bracket and Receiver Ground Wire together.
 Secure wire connection with the plastic P2 wire nuts(JJ) provided.  After all splices are made, check to make sure there are no loose strands.

Care and Cleaning

Item # 1000*****/1000***** Item # FC132-BJRL/FC140-BJRL

Do
 Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Ensure they are secure. Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may become loose over time. It is not necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.

 Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing.
 (Optional) Apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades.
 (Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.

Do not  Do not use water when cleaning. Water could damage the motor, or the wood, or possibly cause an electrical shock.
 Do not apply oil to your fan or motor. The motor has permanently-lubricated sealed ball bearings.

Troubleshooting

Item # 1000*****/1000***** Item # FC132-BJRL/FC140-BJRL

Problem The fan will not start. The fan is noisy.
The fan wobbles.

Solution
 Check the main and branch circuit fuses or breakers.  Check the line wire connections to the fan and switch wire connections in the switch
housing.  Check the battery in the remote control.  Ensure you are in the normal range of 10-20 feet.  Remember to turn off the power supply before checking the dip switch settings.
 Ensure all motor housing screws are snug.  Ensure the screws that attach the fan blade bracket to the motor hub are tight.  Ensure the wire nut connections are not rattling against each other or the interior wall
of the switch housing.  Allow a 24-hour "breaking in" period. Most noises associated with a new fan
disappear during this time.
 If you are using the Ceiling Fan light kit, ensure the screws securing the glassware are tight. Check that the light bulbs are also secure.
 Ensure the canopy is a short distance from the ceiling. It should not touch the ceiling.  Ensure your outlet box is secure and rubber isolator pads were used between the
mounting plate and outlet box.
 Check that all blade and blade arm screws are secure.  Most fan wobble problems are caused when blade levels are unequal. Check this level
by selecting a point on the ceiling above the tip of one of the blades. Measure from a point on the center of the blade to the point on the ceiling. Rotate the fan until the next blade is positioned for measurement, and measure from the same point on each blade to the ceiling. Repeat for each blade. Any measurement deviation should be within 1/8 in. Run the fan for ten minutes. If the fan continues to wobble please contact Customer Service and a balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.
