3) Specific safety rules
1. This appliance must be installed by a Qualified Electrical Contractor in accordance with the local regulations, and all local,
state and national electrical codes. Any alterations or additions to building wiring must be completed by a licensed electrical
mechanic, or person authorized by legislation to work on the fixed wiring of any electrical installation.
2. The ceiling fan must be connected to a 240V AC 50Hz power supply.
3. All electrical work must only be undertaken after disconnection of the power by removing fuses or turning off the circuit
breaker, to ensure all pole isolation of the electrical supply.
4. The fan must be earthed.
5. The fan must be installed so that the blades are at least 2.3 metres above the floor.
6. The structure that the ceiling fan is connected to must be capable of supporting a weight of at least 50 kg. The fixing must
be able to support the moving weight of the fan and must not twist or work loose.
7. Make sure that the installation site will not allow the rotating fan blades to come into contact with any object and that there
is a minimum clearance of 150 mm (6") from the blade tip to the wall or ceiling. Please note that the bigger this clearance
is the better the airflow from your fan will be.
8. Do not use outdoors. Installing the fan in a position where it could be exposed to water or moisture is dangerous.
9. Do not connect the fan motor to a dimmer switch. This may give an unsatisfactory performance (motor hum) and cause
damage to the motor.
10. This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
11. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
12. It is not recommended that ceiling fans and gas appliances be operated in the same room at the same time.
13. The fan must be turned off and stopped completely before reversing the fan direction. This will prevent any damage to
the motor of the fan or controller (if installed).
14. Do not insert anything into the fan blades whilst they are spinning. This will damage the blades and upset the balance
of the fan causing the unit to wobble.
15. After the fan is completely installed make sure that all base and fan blade fixings are secured and tightened to prevent
any problems.
16. Because of the fan's natural movement, some connections may loosen. Check the support connections, brackets and
blade attachments twice a year to make sure they remain secured. If any are loose, tighten.
