Company could void your authority to operate this equip-  
ment!  
Operation Is Subject To The Following Two Conditions:  
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.  
2. This device must accept any interference received, in-  
cluding interference that may cause undesired operation.  
Note: Any changes or modifications to the transmitter or  
receiver not expressly approved by Hunter Fan Company  
may void one’s authority to operate this remote control.  
Your fan is equipped to be operated by remote control. A receiver  
device is mounted inside the fan switch housing. A hand-held trans-  
mitter is packed in the fan box. The transmitter requires a 12-volt  
battery (included). The operating range is 15-30 feet.  
Blade Iron  
Medallion  
setting the code  
When two or more fans are located near each other, you may desire  
to have each of them set to a different code, so that the operation  
of one fan will not affect another. This is accomplished by changing  
the position of any one or more of a group of 3 jumpers grouped  
together in the transmitter. The receiver located in the switch hous-  
ing has the same set of 3 jumpers which must also be changed to  
match the transmitter settings.  
These jumpers are very small and can best be operated by using a  
small pair of pliers or tweezers.  
In the transmitter, the jumpers are readily accessible from the bat-  
tery compartment. The switches in the receiver are located at the  
bottom of the receiver device in the switch housing. See Figures 26  
and 27.  
Figure 24 - Attaching the blade to the blade iron and  
medallion  
If you used grommets, the blades may appear slightly loose  
after screws are tightened. This is normal.  
3. Remove the blade mounting screws and rubber shipping  
bumpers from the motor.  
4. For each blade, insert one blade mounting screw through the  
blade iron as shown in Figure 25, and attach lightly to the fan.  
Insert the second blade mounting screw, then securely tighten  
both mounting screws.  
To set the jumpers in the receiver, remove the receiver from the  
switch housing and set the jumpers in the same positions as the  
jumpers in the transmitter. See Figure 27.  
Replace the receiver, making sure the mounting holes at the top of  
the switch housing line up with the matching slots in the top of the  
receiver.

operating your ceiling fan  
mounting the remote holder  
1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.  
A holder is supplied with the transmitter which can be mounted to  
a existing toggle switch wall plate. The holder will help prevent mis-  
placement of your transmitter by providing a permanent recep-  
tacle. See Figure 33.  
If desired, the holder can be mounted to a convenient location on  
a wall.  
2. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclock-  
wise blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a  
direct breeze. In winter, having the fan draw air upward (clock-  
wise blade rotation) will distribute the warmer air trapped at  
the ceiling around the room without causing a draft. Refer to  
Figure 31.  
Figure 31 - Air flow patterns  
Figure 33 - Remote holder assembly  
operating the remote control  
The hand-held transmitter has individual buttons for control of the  
light, for controlling the fan speeds, for turning the fan off, and for  
reversing. See Figure 32.  
The fan may be started by pressing the HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW  
speed buttons. For best operation, allow the fan to start on HIGH,  
then select the desired speed. Press the fan OFF button to turn the  
ceiling fan off. Press the REVERSE button to change the fan’s direc-  
tion while the fan is running.  
NOTE: Replace 12-volt battery with type 23 A, MN-21 or equiva-  
lent.

cloth. Occasionally, a light coat of furniture polish may be applied  
for added protection and beauty. Painted and high-gloss blades  
may be cleaned in the same manner as the fan finish.  
4. Be sure that the glass is secure.  
5. Check and tighten the screws in the switch housing  
mounting plate and in the upper and lower switch hous-  
ing.  
Problem: Excessive wobbling.  
1. If your fan wobbles when operating, use the enclosed bal-  
ancing kit and instructions to balance the fan.  
2. Tighten all blade and/or blade iron screws.  
3. Turn power off, support fan very carefully, and check that  
the hanger ball is properly seated.  
Problem: No functions operate.  
1. Replace fuse. Turn ON circuit breaker. Turn ON wall  
switch.  
2. Set transmitter and receiver to same jumper switch set-  
ting.  
3. Replace with new, alkaline battery.
