Fan Owner Warranty & Operations Manual
5) General Maintenance
Changing Remote Batteries: - Remote hand piece batteries should be replaced in every 6 months.
Batteries removed from the remote hand piece should be disposed of properly and kept out of reach
of children.
*Always ensure fan isolation switch is off and the fan cooled down before you start cleaning*
Cleaning the Motor Housings: - Fans must be regularly cleaned to avoid contamination building up on
the motor housing and damaging the finish. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth and then dry with a soft
absorbent cloth. Mild dishwashing liquid can be used to remove stains (apply to damp cloth).
Cleaning the Blades: - Use a soft damp cloth to remove contamination from blades. Always dry blades
with a soft dry cloth after cleaning. Blades should not be left damp or wet as this will damage blade
finish or cause corrosion. Mild dishwashing liquid can be used to remove stains (apply to damp cloth).
NOTE: Hunter Pacific does not recommend wooden or plated steel blade fans be used outdoors or for
very humid installations. If wooden blades are used outdoors or in humid locations the timber may
swell. Plated metal will corrode if condensation and contamination is not removed. Replacement
blades are inexpensive and swelling or corrosion is not covered by warranty.
Ideally your fan (indoors or outdoors) should be cleaned every 3 to 4 months.
Removing blades (fan must be switched off at isolation switch):
