Instructions generally say what things are suitable for, not what they are not suitable for. Given the bizarre and sometimes stupid things that consumers may try to do, a list of uses that a product is not suitable for would go on for ever, and could never be exhaustive. Does your light, for example, say that it is not suitable for use under water?Surely it would say on the instructions if it wasn't suitable?If it doesn't then it isn't.

It doesn't matter. Which ever is easiest
I think you should connect the fan cable in while you have the chance, and leave the switch off until you get some fan ducting etc, ASSUMING THE CABLE AT THE FAN IS SAFELY TERMINATED to the old fan.
You'll need a working fan.
If you did this, you need to identify which colours are which on the fan cable.
Also, at the light, you'll possibly struggle getting those wires to reach the terminal block in the fitting. Remember, the earth connection needs to make contact with the metalwork of the light.
You may need a short piece of cable and some connector blocks to make the connections within the light.
I recommend you send pictures of the wiring at the light before you switch on, just to be sure you've done a decent job.
