Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either 
the circuit breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture 
and disconnect the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture 
outlet box to be sure it is marked “Approved for 
Ceiling Fan Mounting.” If it is not, a new box must 
be installed.
