Place the canopy on top of the fan and align the proper holes. See Figure 5. Make certain you have located the hole pattern by checking to see that the canopy sits flat on top of the fan with- out a space between the bottom of the canopy and the top of the fan. If a space is present, rotate the canopy slightly, eliminating the space.

CAUTION: Do not lift motor by wires.

C. Being careful not to scratch the canopy finish, hang the fan from the hook in the ceiling plate using one of the (2) slots in the canopy. See Figure 5A.
