MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS:
A. RECEIVER INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before installing this unit, change the factory code switch set-
ting to your own preferred setting. Be sure the code switch positions of
the transmitter and receiver match each other or the ceiling fan will not
function. If this unit causes interference with other appliances, you
may need to select different combinations.
1. In order to set the code on the transmitter, begin by removing the battery
cover. Slide the code switches to your choice of settings (do not use the
factory settings in which all the switches are on). Use a small screwdriver
or ball point pen to slide the switches firmly up or down (see figure 1).
Replace the battery cover on the transmitter.
2. In order to set the code on the receiver, slide the code switches to the same
positions as set on your transmitter (see figure 2).
B. WIRING THE RECEIVER IN YOUR CEILING FAN
1. If your ceiling fan is equipped with variable speed and light ON/OFF pull
chain switch controls, make sure to set the speed control at the highest
speed and the light to the ON position before installing the thermostat
control. This will avoid erratic speeds and possible damage to your
ceiling fan.
2. Verify proper operation of the ceiling fan before installation. Improper
wiring can damage the control and will void the warranty.
3. Disconnect power to the ceiling fan at the main electric panel. Remove the
fuse or switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position.
4. Remove ceiling fan canopy from the mounting bracket.
5. Disconnect existing wiring between ceiling fan and AC supply at electrical
junction box.
6. Place the receiver inside the ceiling fan bracket (see figure 3).

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM: REMOTE FAILS TO OPERATE
Check:
• Is there power to the control unit?
• Is the control unit wired correctly?
• Are the fan and light switches set on the highest position?
• Is there a good battery in the remote? If the red indicator lights when either
button is pushed, the battery is good.
• Are the switches set the same in both the remote and the control unit?
PROBLEM: SHORT RANGE
Solution:
• If the remote can operate the control unit when close to it but does not
operate it at distances of 30-50 feet, try placing the black antenna wire
above the ceiling and outside of the junction box.
