All wiring must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes and ANSI/NFPA 70. If you are unfamiliar with wiring, use a qualified electrician.

Wall switches are not included. Select an acceptable general-use switch in accordance with national and local electrical codes.

4-1. Disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location.

4-2. Decide how you want to set up the fan and light controls. You can control the fan and/or lights together or separately using one or two wall switches. Follow Step 4-3 OR Step 4-4, depending on what you decide.

4-3. If you want to, you can control the fan and light separately using two wall switches, connect the wires as follows:

e bare or green ground wire from the ceiling to the green ground wire from the hanger bracket and the green ground wire from the fan

e white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan

e black wire from the ceiling to the black wire from the fan

e black/white wire from the fan to the wire for the wall switch

4-4. Alternatively, you can control both fan and light with one switch. To do so connect the wires as follows:

e bare or green ground wire from the ceiling to the green ground wire from the hanger bracket and the green ground wire from the fan

e white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan

e black wire from the ceiling to the black and the black/white

wire from the fan

4-5. To connect the wires, hold the bare metal leads together and place a wire nut over them, then twist clockwise until tight.

CAUTION: Be sure no bare wire or wire strands are visible after making connections.

4-6. Push all wires and wire nuts back into the hanger bracket.
