How to wire a Hunter Remote Ceiling Fan (Exeter) and utilize both wall switches
That should be fine. The receiver shouldn't care or be hurt if the light kit isn't connected to it (it's the exact same situation, electrically, as not installing light bulbs or having the bulbs burned out).
Be sure to cover the light wire from the receiver securely - put one of the supplied wire nuts on it tightly, then secure with electrical tape so it doesn't fall off.
If it's not clear from the instructions which wire on the fan is for the motor and which is for the light, you could try powering each (one at a time) and the white with a cord and plug before you hang the fan. Do it before you install the blades and you won't have to worry about hitting anything if you happen to find the fan wire first.
