Remote Controller Operation

Remove the battery cover from the remote control transmitter and install batteries. Replace the cover. This remote uses 2 1.5V/AAA batteries. Note: If not using for long periods of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage to the remote controller, and store the remote controller away from excess heat or humidity.

The batteries will weaken with age and should be replaced before they leak or corrode, as this will damage the controller. Dispose of the used batteries properly. Always keep batteries out of the reach of children. Note: Refer to page 9 for fan operation with the Bond app.

Dimming, Non-Dimming Setting (only available for fans with light)

In the dimming mode, it is a light dimming selection and it is to be used with dimmable luminaries. The remote controller is set with a dimming function at the factory.
In ON/OFF (non-dimming mode), it is for light ON/OFF only (non-dimming function).

Universal Mode and Learning Mode

Your remote controller has two options: “Universal Mode” (mark “0”) and “Learning Mode” (mark “1”). If choosing “Universal Mode,” simply move the switch to the LOWER position (mark “0”). Your fan with the remote controller is ready to use.

Note: If using Universal Mode, your fan can be controlled with other remote controllers with the same settings. To control the fan with a specific remote controller, choose “Learning Mode” by moving the switch to the UPPER position (mark “1”) and then follow the Learn Mode steps below.

Learn Mode

Important: Turn the power on for ONLY the specific fan you wish to pair with the remote controller. Make sure to turn the power off for all other fans with which you use the same remote controller. Restore power to your fan, press and hold the “SET” button to pair the transmitter and receiver. You must press the “SET” button within 60 seconds of restoring power to the fan.

Note: The Fan will at first operate at minimum speed, and the light will blink (if your fan has a light) after you’ve chosen Learn Mode. Note: If the power is already on, you must turn the power off and then back on for the remote control setting. Note: If you reset the controller to Universal Mode (mark “0”) and later want to pair the controller again to a specific fan, you have to repeat the Learn Mode steps.

The remote control buttons control the fan speed as follows:

1. minimum speed
2. low speed
3. medium low speed
4. medium speed
5. medium high speed
6. high speed

• This button turns the fan off.
• Forward/Reverse button: This button is used to control the direction of fan rotation. Press once to change the direction of the fan rotation. The fan must be running in reverse.
• Light button: Press this button to turn the light on or off.
• Light button: Press this button to the desired brightness, dim to bright.
• Light button: Press this button to the desired brightness, from bright to dim.
• Breeze: Press the Breeze button, the fan will operate randomly among minimum, low, and medium low speeds at intervals of 30 seconds until the breeze mode is canceled. Breeze mode can be erased by pressing either the power or speed control buttons.

Note: This remote controller has auto auto-resume function. The fan will maintain the last setting when turned back on, with the exception of Breeze mode.

Install the transmitter wall mount cradle with the 2 screws provided.

Useful tips:

• The remote transmitter can be removed by pressing it upward from the lower half.
• The remote transmitter can be held on magnetic metal materials by a magnet built into the transmitter.

The receiver provides the following protective functions:

• Lock protection: The DC motor has a built-in safety feature against blade obstruction during operation. If something obstructs the fan blades, the motor will stop operating after about 20 seconds of interruption. Please remove obstacles and reset it by turning the power off and then turning the power back on.
• Over 40W protection: When the receiver detects motor power consumption that is greater than 40W, the fan RPM will automatically lower to prevent it from overloading.

User Tips

1. If your fan is operating automatically after installation, it is still using the factory setting. Follow the settings for Learn Mode above to reset.
2. If the fan or light isn’t working, reset power (turn the power off, then turn the power back on) and follow the Universal Mode or Learn Mode remote control settings. Note: Make sure to learn the setting, either you change it from universal mode to learn mode or change it back to universal mode from learn mode.
3. If two or more fans in the same remote signal range are on the same power supply, they cannot be operated separately by remote control. Use a separate power supply for each fan, such as an individual wall switch, and restrict the power supply to only the fan that you are pairing with its transmitter in order to use the remote controller.
4. When the fan is turned on to oscillate in either forward or reverse direction, it may shudder briefly until fully engaged. This is a normal operation for this fan; the shuddering will quickly cease as movement is engaged.
