Some Hunter fans are provided with remote controls that install at the time of the original ceiling fan installation. Other remotes are made to be installed to an existing fan. Regardless of when the remote was installed, remove it to revert to a manually operated fan if the remote control or receiver fails. If your Hunter ceiling fan remote is an integral part of your fan, you must contact the Hunter Service Department at 1-888-830-1326 for service or replacement.
Instructions
1. Turn off the power to your Hunter ceiling fan at the wall switch or the main circuit panel. Remove the screws holding the Hunter ceiling fan canopy to the hanging bracket. The canopy rests against the ceiling and covers the hanging bracket, remote receiver and wiring.
2. Access the electrical box behind the canopy and locate the wire connector holding the black wire from the house wiring to the black wire from the remote receiver. Insert one prong of a two-prong electrical tester into the wire connector and touch the remaining prong to any metal on the ceiling fan or electrical box. The light on the two-prong tester will not turn on if the power is correctly disconnected from the ceiling fan.
3. Untwist the five wire connectors that connect the receiver to the Hunter fan and the house wiring. Do not disconnect the bare copper wire from the house wires that connects to the green wire from the ceiling fan. Remove the receiver from the hanging bracket.
4. Connect the and the black wire with a white stripe from the ceiling fan to the black wire from the house wiring by twisting a wire connector onto both wires. Connect the white wire from the Hunter fan to the white wire from the house wiring with another wire connector.
5. Cover the wiring with the Hunter ceiling fan canopy and reattach it to the hanging bracket. Turn the power onto the ceiling fan at the light switch or the main circuit panel.
