READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY FIRST
Safety and the proper operation of your Casablanca fan both require a thorough knowledge of the product and proper
installation; therefore, before attempting to install and operate your Casablanca fan, read this owner’s manual com-
pletely and carefully. Retain this manual for future reference.
CAUTION: To avoid possible electrical shock, make certain that electricity is turned off at the
circuit breaker or fuse box before attempting any installation procedure.
BEFORE YOU START
•
•
•
•
All wiring must be in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1993 and the appropriate local electrical
codes. The National Electric Code requires proper grounding as a precaution against electrical shock. A qualified electrician
should be consulted if you are unsure.
This fan is designed to be installed on an existing electrical outlet box. The outlet box must be UL Listed for ceiling fan
installations, if it is not, a new box must be installed. Casablanca extension poles are available for sloped or high ceiling
installations.
This ceiling fan requires a grounded electrical supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz and a minimum 15 amp circuit. The maximum
current requirement for the fan with light fixture is 1.48 amps Star / 1.28 amps Starlet. The fan uses about .85 amps (102
watts) Star / .65 amps (78 watts) Starlet. Maximum light current is .63 amps or 75 watts of lighting.
Where wire nuts are employed, be sure all bare wires are within the connectors. When installing the canopy hatch, make
sure all wires are within the canopy and that no wires are being pinched.
For best performance and for your warranty to be valid,
use only genuine Casablanca blades, light fixtures, and accessories.
SAFE USE
•
•
The blades in each pack are matched for equal
weight to assure smooth fan operation. If more
than one fan is being installed, be careful not
to mix blades from different cartons.
Inspect the contents of your carton for possible
shipping or handling damage and report any
such damage directly to your authorized
Casablanca dealer.

•
•
It is always a good idea to have an assistant
to help with the installation.
When cleaning, painting, or working near your
fan, be very careful of the fan and blades.
Always turn the power OFF to the ceiling fan
before servicing it, working on it, or replacing
light bulbs.

GETTING STARTED
Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fixture located where you
wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling
fixture outlet box must be installed and wired.
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either circuit
breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture and discon-
nect the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be
sure that it is marked ‘Approved for ceiling fan mount-
ing’. If it is not, a new box must be installed.
Warning: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount to outlet box marked acceptable
for ceiling fan support using the mounting hardware
provided with the outlet box.
CROSSBAR MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION
Proceed with installation as follows:
JOIST
Step 1. Place the wires from the ceiling outlet box
to one side of the crossbar mounting bracket. Attach
the bracket, with ground wire and ridges down, to the
ceiling fixture outlet box with the mounting hardware
included with the outlet box. Tighten the screws firmly
by hand only, being careful not to bend the bracket by
over tightening.

the connection is secure by pulling on the wire nut.
Connect in this order:
2 BLACK WIRES
2 WHITE WIRES
Step 5b. Wiring Connections

INSTALLING THE HALOGEN BULB
IMPORTANT! When installing the halogen bulb,
carefully cut off the end of the plastic sleeve the
bulb comes in and hold the bulb by the plastic
sleeve to screw it into the socket.
Step 10. Screw the 75-watt halogen bulb into the
socket. Do not touch the glass bulb with your fingers
it is extremely important that the glass be clean. If it
is accidentally touched, or dirty, clean carefully with a
tissue. A dirty glass will cause the bulb to fail almost
immediately.
HALOGEN BULB
NOTE: In compliance with US Federal Energy
Regulations, this ceiling fan contains a device
that restricts the light fixture to a maximum of
190 watts. Exceeding that limit or the marked
limit on this product may result in a fire hazard
or improper operation.

INSTALLING THE GLASS SHADE
Step 11. Position the indentations in the outer rim
of the glass shade so that they line up with the tabs
on the inside surface of the fan light fixture rim.
Carefully lift the glass shade up inside the light
fixture as far as it will go.
Rotate the shade in a clockwise direction until it is
held tightly in place by the three tabs.
TAB
TIP: At first the shade is a very loose fit in the
fixture and can be ‘wiggled’ a little from side
to side. It is a great help when rotating the
glass shade to ‘wiggle’ it at the same time.
