Does this new fan use the existing wall switches?
If the new fan does not require the use of wall switches, then you need to isolate the wires to and from the switches (in the ceiling) and cap them off. Once the wires feeding the switches are disconnected, remove the wall switches, disconnect the switch wires and cap them off. Place the capped off wires back into the box and replace the switch faceplate or plates with a blank cover.
If the new fan needs the wall switches, then you need to tell us what wires go to the switches.
