8 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan

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

8-2. The fan pull chain controls power to the fan. The 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.

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

8-3. The light pull chain controls the power to the light fixture. The chain has two settings: ON and OFF.

In warm weather, use downward air flow pattern

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 winter, 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 finishes, 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 finish.

8-6. Clean wood finish 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 finish.

In cold weather, use upward

air flow pattern

To Change Airflow Direction
