Before assembling and operating your fan, review the following tips and guidelines to ensure a safe
and easy installation, particularly the safety guidelines on page ii. If you have questions about any
aspect of the installation process, consult a structural engineer or electrical contractor or contact
Haiku Technical Service.
Unpacking the fan
As you remove the fan from its packaging, make sure you are not missing any components required
for assembly and operation. Refer to the fan diagram and the Parts and Hardware section for a list of
components. Do not discard the packaging! It will be used during the installation process. If you are
missing a part required for installation, contact Haiku Technical Service.
If you ordered multiple fans, be sure to keep the components of each fan together! Certain
fan components are not interchangeable.
Determining fan location
Consider the following guidelines as you decide where to install your Haiku:
• Do not mount the fan in an environment that is excessively dusty, conductive, corrosive, or gas-
filled, near strong chemicals or solvents, or where there is excessive heat, shock, or vibration.
• Do not install the fan near open flames such as those from a gas stove.
• The ceiling should be stable with no high vibrations, shaking, or heavy impacts.
• Install the fan so that the airfoils are at least 2.4 m above the floor.
• Make sure the space around the fan has a clearance of at least 1 m from obstructions such as
cabinets, doors, lighting fixtures, etc.
• Make sure the space between the fan and ceiling is clear of any obstructions.
• Install the fan on a switched circuit so that you can turn o the fan using a wall switch in addition to
using the remote control.
