unfamiliar with wiring, you should use a qualified
electrician.
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.
To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing
the fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit

location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the
off position, securely fasten a prominent warning
device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not bend the
blade attachment system when installing, balancing,
or cleaning the fan. Never insert foreign objects
between the rotating fan blades.
The fan blades must be at least 7 feet above the floor.
The fan blades must be at least 30 inches from the
wall or the nearest obstruction.
