PRECAUTIONS
ATTENTION: Read this booklet carefully as it contains important instructions for a safe installation, use and maintenance. Important instructions to be kept for future reference.
The following basic precautions should always be followed when using electrical appliances:
- Read all instructions before using the appliance.
- This appliance must be used only for the purpose it was expressly designed; any use NOT complying with the instructions contained in the manual is considered inappropriate and dangerous. The manufacturer is NOT responsible for possible damages caused by the inappropriate and/or unreasonable use.
- This appliance is NOT suitable to be used in an explosive environment (in the presence of flammable substances such as gas, vapour, mist or dust, in atmospheric conditions when, after ignition, the combustion is spread in the air). Items containing these substances should never be placed in the appliance, and never be used to clean the appliance in order to avert the risk of fire or explosion.
- The packing materials (plastic bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children or disabled persons since they represent potential sources of danger.
- The installation/assembly of the appliance will be made in accordance with the indications of the manufacturer. A wrong procedure may cause damages to persons, animals or objects, for which the manufacturer cannot be considered responsible.
- Before use, check the integrity of the appliance and power cable. In case you are not sure, contact a qualified person. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a qualified technician in order to avoid a shock hazard.
- Before powering the appliance make sure the rating (voltage and frequency) corresponding to the grid and the socket is suitable for the plug of the appliance, and that the wall socket is properly grounded.
- DO NOT power the appliance using multiple sockets. If possible, avoid the use of adapters and/or extension cables; if their use is absolutely necessary, use only materials in compliance with the current safety regulations and according to the electrical parameters of the adapters.
- The appliance must NOT be switched on using external timers and/or other remote control appliances which are not specified in this manual.
- Any accessories NOT recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries to persons.
- During use and storage, the appliance must be kept at a safe distance from heat sources (open flame, heaters, stoves, etc.) or any flammable and/or potentially explosive substances.
- If you are using the appliance for the first time, you should:
-
* Clean the exterior parts of the fan thoroughly with warm water & detergent with a non-abrasive sponge. - Check that the Fan Grills & Fan Blade are NOT damaged.
- Assemble the appliance fully before plugging it into the electric mains.
- Place and use the appliance on a horizontal, stable and dry surface. Damage may occur if the appliance is placed on an incline or decline.
- Press the “0” (OFF) button on the Control Panel and then insert the plug directly into a standard AC socket. Be sure that the plug fits tightly into the socket.
- Turn the ‘Timer Rotary Switch’ to “ON” even if you do NOT wish to use the Timer. The appliance stops automatically when the rotary dial reaches the “OFF” position. If the Timer sits at the “OFF” position, the appliance will not operate even if the appliance is switched on, so keep the Timer at “ON” at all times unless you wish to use the Timer. To do so, rotate the ‘Timer Rotary Switch’ counter clock-wise to your desired time duration between 0 to 120 minutes (2 hours) (optional).
- Turn ON the appliance by pressing the Speed buttons “1, 2 or 3” for the fan speed (Low – 1, 2, 3 – High) you desire on the Control Panel. To stop the fan, press the Speed button “0” (OFF) on the Control Panel.
- Turning on the “Oscillation switch” at the top of the Control Panel at the rear of the appliance will make the fan oscillate side to side, sweeping an arc across the room. To stop the fan from oscillating, turn off the “Oscillation switch”.
