10 • Operation & Maintenance Airflow Direction Cleaning and Maintenance Caring for finishes: For cleaning finishes, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to prevent scratching. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier dust. Remove surface smudges or accumulated dirt and dust using a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. You may use an artistic agent, but never abrasive cleaning agents as they will damage the finish.
10 • Operation & Maintenance Operation Troubleshooting The fan pull chain controls power to the fan. • The pull chain has four settings in sequence: High, Medium, Low, and Off. • Pull the chain slowly to change settings. • Release slowly to prevent the chain from recoiling into the blades. • The chain uses a breakaway connector that separates if the chain is jerked. If this happens, simply reinsert the chain into the connector. The light pull chain controls the power to the light fixture.
