Frequently Asked Questions - 99121 HUNTER

How do I pair the remote with the fan?

Within 3 minutes of restoring power to the fan, press and hold both the Fan Off button and the High button for at least 4 seconds. The fan will turn on low to indicate successful syncing. If it does not, turn off power for 1 minute and try again.

What should I do if the fan will not start?

Ensure power is on at the circuit breaker and wall switch. Check that the battery is working and properly installed. Verify that the transmitter and receiver are paired. Inspect wire connections inside the canopy.

How do I replace the battery in the transmitter?

Remove the small Phillips head screw securing the battery door. Replace with a CR2032 battery, positive (+) side up. Reattach the door and screw.

Why doesn't the light dim?

The control automatically detects CFL bulbs and disables dimming. If using dimmable LED bulbs, ensure they are compatible. For CFLs, dimming is not supported.

What is the Safe-Exit mode?

Press the Fan Off button for at least 3 seconds. The lights will flash, then stay on at 50% brightness for 15 seconds and dim to off over 30 seconds total. For CFLs, lights stay on 100% for 30 seconds.

How do I install the transmitter cradle?

Remove the two screws holding your switch cover plate (do not remove the plate). Align the cradle holes with the cover plate holes and insert the screws. Tighten without over-tightening.

What if CFL bulbs flicker?

Turn the light switch off and back on. Within 3 minutes, hold down the Fan Off button while pressing the Dim Down button twice. Repeat up to 3 times if needed.

Can I use multiple remote-controlled fans on the same circuit?

Yes, but extra steps may be needed to prevent interference. Refer to Hunter's FAQ at www.HunterFan.com/FAQs for guidance on installing multiple remote-controlled fans.

The transmitter only works at close range. What should I do?

Replace the battery with a fresh CR2032. Weak batteries reduce range.

How do I reset the remote if it becomes erratic?

Check that the battery is installed correctly. Replace with a new battery. If issues persist, turn off power to the fan for 1 minute, then repeat the pairing process.

USER MANUAL 99121 HUNTER

Before installing the Universal Remote Control Receiver, use the pull chains to set the fan speed to HIGH and the light to ON. Be sure power is OFF before proceeding with installation.

Remove the canopy. If uncertain how to remove it, reference the fan's owner's manual. With wiring exposed, it may be helpful to note existing wire connections or take a digital photo for reference. Remove the wire connectors that connect the wires from the outlet box to the fan, leaving the grounding wires connected.

OR OR

If you are installing multiple remote-controlled fans on the same circuit breaker,

you may need to perform a few extra steps to prevent interference or faulty operation of your remote controls

Go to www.HunterFan.com/FAQs and click "How do I properly install multiple remote-controlled fans?" for more information.

Choose the hanging system that most closely resembles the one used by your fan and install the receiver as shown and wire as directed.

Note: Some fans may have considerable excess lead wire. For easier canopy installation, cut the excess wire, leaving a minimum of 8" remaining. Re-strip the fan lead wires 1/2". Place remaining excess wire into the ceiling electrical box. The bracket and fan must remain properly grounded.

You may have installation issues if the fan is installed on an angled ceiling. For assistance, call 1-888-830-1326.

CONNECT WIRES FROM RECEIVER TO FAN - Using the orange wire connectors, connect the blue wire from the receiver to the blue wire (or possibly black with white stripe wire) from the fan. Connect the yellow wire from the receiver to the black wire from the fan.

If you're uncertain about wire colors or connections, please contact a qualified electrician.

CONNECT WIRES FROM RECEIVER AND FAN TO WIRES FROM OUTLET BOX - Using the orange wire connectors, connect the black wire (ungrounded) from the ceiling to the black wire from the receiver. Connect the white wire (grounded) from the ceiling to both the white wire from the receiver and the white wire from the fan.

AFTER ALL WIRES ARE CONNECTED and secured with wire connectors, re-install the canopy.

To avoid possible electrical shock, before installing or servicing your fan, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit breakers to the outlet box and associated wall switch location. If you cannot lock the circuit breakers in the off position, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
