□ Check the support connections, brackets, and blade
attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure.
Because of the fan’s natural movement, some
connections may become loose over time. It is not
necessary to remove the fan from the ceiling.
□ Clean your fan periodically. Use only a soft brush or
lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the nish. The plating is
sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or
tarnishing.
□ (Optional) Cover small scratches with a light application of
shoe polish.
