Here are some suggestions to help maintain your fan.

1.Because of the fan's natural movement some connections may become

loose. Check the support connections, brackets and blade attachments

twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove

fan from the ceiling).
2.Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over

the years. Use only a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the

finish. Plated finishes are sealed with lacquer to minimize discoloration

or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning, this could damage the

motor, wood blades or possibly cause an electrical shock.
3.If your fan is provided with wood veneer blades; you can apply a light

coat of furniture polish for additional protection and enhanced beauty.

Cover small scratches with a light application of shoe polish.
4Use a lint free lightly damp cloth or duster to remove dust from the

blades.
5.There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated

bearings.
6.If your fan is provided with glass shades, clean with lukewarm soapy

water and a soft cloth or sponge. DO NOT IMMERSE GLASS SHADES IN

HOT WATER. DO NOT PUT GLASS SHADES INTO AN AUTOMATIC

DISHWASHER.
