The 5RDRRB ceiling fan produced by Monte Carlo is a five-blade, pendant-style ceiling fan. The fan features three-speed reversible operation and a remote control and can be installed with an add-on light kit to function as a light fixture. Troubleshooting the Monte Carlo fan should only be undertaken by those experienced with electrical wiring connections.
Instructions
1. Compare the dip switch setting on the remote control to the dip switch setting on the receiver located on the fan if the fan will not run. Reset either the remote or the fan receiver to match the other component if they are not set the same.
2. Check the fuses or breakers at the household electrical panel if the fan still will not start. Replace any blown fuses or reset any tripped breakers as necessary.
3. Turn off the main power at the electrical panel, then remove the three screws that hold the in place and remove the switch housing if the fan still fails to start or makes noise while running. Check for any loose wiring connections if the fan will not start or the light does not turn on. Verify that the wire nut connectors have adequate room between each other and the sides of the housing to prevent rattling. Reinstall the switch housing.
4. Check the tightness of the screws on both the motor housing and blades if the fan is noisy or wobbles during operation. Allow 24 hours of fan run time to elapse then recheck it if the fan continues to make excessive noise.
5. Verify that the fan canopy sits flush against the ceiling if the fan wobbles during operation. Measure the distance between the blade tips and ceiling if the fan continues to wobble. Place a washer between the blade holder and blade to adjust the blade height on any blades that are not level with the others.
