1b. Internal Wire Compartment: Remove screw holding blower
assembly (venturi) in place and lift assembly out of housing
(Figure 6). Remove the wire compartment cover screw and
place the cover in a secure place (Figure 7).
NOTE: If the fan motor plug
is connected to the fan
housing receptacle, unplug

2. Run wiring from an approved wall switch carrying the
appropriate rating. One neutral (white), one ground (green
or bare copper), and three hot (black, red, yellow leads
connected to the switch, one for each function). Secure the
electrical wires to the housing with an approved electrical
connector. Make sure you leave enough wiring in the box to
make the connection to the fan’s receptacle.
3. From where you have chosen to access the fan’s junction
box, connect the white wire from the house to the two white
wires from the fan. Connect one hot (black) wire from the wall
switch to the black wire from the fan (this is the fan control).
Connect second hot (red) wire from the wall switch to the red
wire from the fan (this is the night light control). Connect the
third hot (yellow) wire from the wall switch to the yellow wire
from the fan (this is the main light control). Connect the ground
wire from the house to the green wire from the fan (Figure 8).
Use approved methods for all connections.
NOTE: The fan’s receptacle wires might need to be pulled outside
compartment for connection. Only pull the loose wires outside
of compartment. Additional wires will be present.
4. Carefully tuck wires back inside wire compartment and
replace wire compartment cover securing with the screw
that was removed earlier.
