Preventative Maintenance
A clean fan provides better service. Disconnect the power supply and clean the fan as listed below.
TO CLEAN THE BEZEL: Carefully pull the bezel down. Use water, a mild detergent such as dishwashing liquid, and a soft cloth to clean the bezel. DO NOT use abrasive cloths, steel wool pads, or scouring powders. Dry the bezel and reinstall it.
TO CLEAN THE FAN ASSEMBLY: Disconnect power to the unit by switching off the breaker or removing the fuse. Turn the wall switch off. Remove the bezel (as described above). Remove the two fan mounting screws. Remove the fan from the hous- ing and unplug the fan wiring harness.
Gently vacuum the fan, motor, and the housing interior.
When the fan is clean, plug in the fan wiring harness. Reinstall the fan and tighten the two fan mounting screws. Reinstall the bezel.
Restore power to the appliance. Test the appliance. If the fan does not run, 1) check the power source, or 2) disconnect power to the appliance, disassemble as described above, check the fan assembly plug, restore power, and test the unit. If the fan still does not run, contact a qualified installer.
NEVER IMMERSE METAL OR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IN WATER.
Maintenance
The fan motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings are making excessive or unusu- al noises, contact Hunter Technical Support (see Troubleshooting section) to order a new fan assembly.
