Common Issues and Solutions

Fan wobbles

Usually blade imbalance. Panasonic includes balance kit — clip small weights to underside of blade to correct.

Remote not working

Check battery, ensure IR window is unobstructed. If persistent, replace remote (available from Panasonic Malaysia parts).

Motor noise after 3-5 years

Bearings need lubrication. Contact Panasonic service or replace bearings (~RM100 job).

Speed change delay

Normal — capacitor-based speed control takes 1-2 seconds to change.
