8 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan

In warm weather, use downward air fl ow pattern

In cold weather, use upward air fl ow pattern

8-1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.

8-2.  e fan pull chain controls power to the fan.  e pull chain has four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low and Off .

• Pull the chain slowly to change settings.

• Release slowly to prevent the chain from recoiling into the blades.

•  e chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if the chain is jerked. If this happens, simply reinsert the chain into the connector.

8-3.  e light pull chain controls power to the light.  e pull chain has two settings: On and Off .

8-4. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclockwise blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a direct breeze. In cold weather, having the fan draw air upward (clockwise blade rotation) will distribute the warmer air trapped at the ceiling around the room without causing a draft.

8-5. For cleaning fi nishes, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to prevent scratching. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier dust. Remove surface smudges or accumulated dirt and dust using a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. You may use an artistic agent, but never abrasive cleaning agents as they will damage the fi nish.

8-6. Clean wood fi nish blades with a furniture polishing cloth.

Occasionally, apply a light coat of furniture polish for added protection and beauty. Clean painted and high-gloss blades in the same manner as the fan fi nish.

To Change Airfl ow Direction

Turn the fan off and let it come to a complete stop. Slide the reversing switch on the fan to the opposite position. Restart fan.
