So here's the deal.I installed this switch for the fan I just installed, lots of work and was excited when it was done and worked.Not being an electrician and all of that.Several days later I would come into the room and lo and behold it would be on.Then I installed a light kit, imagine waking up at midnight and seeing the light come on all by its' lonesome.I called Hunter, the problem is a common one and really stems from the poorly written instructions and the fact that the symptom is not addressed in the trouble shooting guide.
The switch is a radio frequency device and therefore stray radio signals bouncing around the house, through the hood, etcetera can trigger its operation.This was a common problem in early garage door openers and car alarms, those manufacturers fixed it by having the devices reset a new code after each use.
Your fix, is to remove the switch from the wall, pull the battery then pull the fan down and reset the dip switches in the receiver.I may take more than one try as there is no way you can easily pinpoint what is triggering your switch.The complete instructions on how to do this are in the installation instructions which may also be downloaded from the Hunter website.
Hope this helps.
