10 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan
10-1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.
10-2. The knob on the wall control unit controls power to the fan. The fan has three speed settings in sequence: High, Low and Off.
10-3. 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.
10-4. 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.
10-5. 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.
In warm weather, use downward air flow pattern
In cold weather, use upward air flow pattern
To Change Airflow Direction
Turn the fan off and let it come to a complete stop. Slide the reversing switch on the fan to the opposite position. Restart fan.
