four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low, and Off .

blades .
• The chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if the
chain is jerked . If this happens, simply reinsert the chain into
the connector .

chain has two settings: ON and OFF .

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 . 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 .
8-6 . Clean wood finish blades with a furniture polishing cloth .
Occasionally, apply a light coat of furniture polish for added
protection and beauty . Clean painted and high-gloss blades in the
same manner as the fan 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 .
