• 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 xture is 3.8 amps. The fan uses about 1 amp or 100 watts. Maximum light
current is 2.8 amps or 340 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.
WARNING: Do not bend the blade brackets when installing the brackets, balancing the blades, or cleaning
the fan. Do not insert foreign objects in between the rotating fan blades.

Introduction
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. If parts are missing
or damaged, call 1-888-227-2178.
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 working on
it or replacing lightbulbs.
Never insert anything into the path of the fan
blades while the fan is in operation.

Never operate a fan that has been damaged in any
way. Contact Casablanca Fan Company by calling
