8 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan

In warm weather, use
downward air flow pattern

In cold weather, use upward
air flow pattern

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 power to the light. The pull chain has

two settings: On and Off.

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. 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.

8-6. 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.

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.
