or remote speed control. To install and use the accessories, follow
the instructions included with each product. For quiet and optimum
performance of your Hunter fan, use only Hunter speed controls.
Standard Mounting hangs from the
ceiling by a downrod (included).

one remote controlled fan in the same area and want to control them separately. You may
want to label your remotes to ensure you do not mix them up.
1. At the circuit breaker or fuse box, turn the power off for the fan you want to change. Do
not turn the power off at the circuit breaker for the previously installed fan, as you may
inadvertently change the DIP switch code settings for it as well.
2. Slide the cover off the back of the remote and remove the battery. e battery must be
removed when changing DIP switch settings. Refer to Step 8-1.
3. Change the dipswitch settings, so that they are different from the previously installed fan.
4. Replace the battery and cover.
5. At the circuit breaker or fuse box, turn the power back on for the fan whose settings you
are changing.
6. Within 20 seconds of restoring power, push the 3 (high), 2 (medium), and 1 (low) buttons
(in that order) on the remote.
Note: e receiver (built into the fan) has a memory function that retains the last
dipswitch code setting. e setting will not change in the event of power failure or if the

9-3. 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.
Steps 9-1 – 9-2
9-4. 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.
In warm weather, use
9-5. Clean wood finish blades with a furniture polishing cloth.

protection and beauty. Clean painted and high-gloss blades in the
same manner as the fan finish.
