Then connect white to white. It does not mention what to do with the red from the ceiling.My fan installation instructions say to connect the blue & black from the fan to the black from the ceiling.From the fan, there are black, blue, green & white.From the ceiling there is a black wire, red wire, white wire, green wire and plain ground wire.
