YG493D-WH Ceiling Fan Remote Control for Home Decorators Collection

About the Home Decorators Collection YG493D-WH Remote

Made for the Home Decorators Collection YG493D-WH, this replacement remote covers every control on the Kensgrove 64 in.: 9 speeds plus off, forward and reverse, light on, off and dim, three breeze settings and a 2, 4 or 8-hour timer.

The fan's model number, YG493D-WH, appears on its label and on the original carton. Match it before you order. The remote pairs to the receiver already in your fan, so nothing needs to be rewired.

• Change rotation direction with one press
• 3 natural-breeze modes that vary the speed
• Sleep-friendly 2, 4 and 8-hour shutoff
• Includes a wall holder with mounting screws

Storing a spare handset

If you keep a spare remote in a drawer, take the batteries out and store them separately. Keep the handset away from heat and moisture. When the time comes to use it, put in fresh AAA batteries and run the pairing steps before you expect it to work.

Bedroom settings that work

In a bedroom, a low speed with the timer set to 2 or 4 hours keeps air moving while you fall asleep without a draft at 3 a.m. Dim the light low for reading. Keep the remote on the nightstand or on the holder by the door.

Setup & Pairing

Keep the fan in sight so you can see it confirm the pairing.

1. Install two AAA cells in the remote; you will need the open compartment for the next steps.
2. Make sure the little slide switch in the battery bay reads 1.
3. Power-cycle the fan: off at the wall switch or breaker, then on again.
4. Before 30 seconds pass, give the Learn button in the compartment one press.
5. When the light flashes and the blades begin to spin, pairing is complete. No response? Start over from the power-cycle step.
6. Close the cover and try a few buttons to confirm everything responds.

Tip: mount the wall holder after you confirm the remote works.
