Note: The blades on this fan have been treated with Hunter’s Dust Armor protection, making the blades less likely to attract dust and dirt.. Use a dry or slightly damp lint free cloth

to clean the blades.. Do not use a furniture polish or any other cleaners that leave any residue, as they will damage the protective Dust Armor on the blades..
