Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

The fan will not start □ 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.

□ Remember to turn off the power supply before checking the dip switch settings.

The fan is noisy □ 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.

The fan wobbles □ 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 Home Decorators Collection Customer Service and a balancing kit will be sent to you at no charge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question

Do I have to use the light kit?

Can I use LED bulbs with this fan?

How do I attach the blade arms to the motor.

Answer

□ No, you can use the fan without the light kit. The switch cup cover is on the light kit.

□ Yes provided you are not using a universal remote and receiver.

□ Download the updated installation manual showing the removal of the rubber plug from the top of the switch cup.

Removing the rubber plug will allow complete access to the blade screws through the hole that the rubber plug was removed from. Remember to re-install the rubber plug when you are finished as it is required for weather proofing.
