Control your Hampton Bay ceiling fan with a remote control.
Hampton Bay has become a trusted name in ceiling fans, and a leader in the industry when it comes to adding features such as ceiling fan remote controls to their products. Many of the Hampton Bay ceiling fan models offer a convenient remote control to operate them. With every new advancement in technology, also comes the need for a troubleshooting guide. When the ceiling fan remote just won't work, the solution to the problem can be an easy fix.
Instructions
1. Change the battery. This is the first step when troubleshooting a ceiling fan remote. The easiest fix to any remote control problem begins with battery replacement. A 9-volt battery is needed to operate all Hampton Bay ceiling fan remotes.
2. Check the light switch used for the ceiling fan. The light switch found on the wall must be in the "on" position. This allows the ceiling fan to be operated by remote control.
3. Re-program your remote. If fails to get your remote working again, try to reprogram the remote. Open the battery cover you will see 4 dip switches. These switches must be set to the same position as the receiver on the fan. Use the screw driver to move the dip switches either up or down.
4. Follow the previous step to change the frequency if the ceiling fan is randomly turning on or off. Other electronic devices such as garage door openers can interfere with the ceiling fans receiver, causing it to randomly turn on or off.
