5.
Use 120 V, 60 Hz for the electrical supply and properly
ground the unit. Follow all local safety and electrical codes.
6.
Do not use this fan with any solid state control device; such
as a dimmer switch. Solid-state controls may cause
harmonic distortion, which can cause a motor humming
noise.
7.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons,
