4.
5.
6.
Check the integrity of the fan's mechanical support connections at least twice a year. Simply
remove blade assemblies and decorative housing for examination of mounting bracket
support and screws conditions. There is no need to remove fan from ceiling.
Examine the integrity of the blade assemblies once a year.
Periodic cleaning of your new ceiling fan helps maintain the appearance over the years. Do
not use water when cleaning your ceiling fan. It could damage the motor or wood blades and
create the possibility of an electric shock.
The housing is sealed with a lacquer to prevent any dcoloration or tarnishing. Therefore, only
use a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the finish.
You may wish to occasionally apply a light coat of furniture polish to the wood blades for
added protection and to enhance their beauty.
The fan motor has permanently lubricated ball bearings. There is no need to oil the motor.
