Power Adapter

• Your tower fan has a polarized adapter (one prong is wider than the other), which fits into a polarized outlet only one way. If the adapter does not fit, reverse the adapter. If it still does not fit, do not use the adapter in that outlet. Do not alter the adapter in any way.
• This device is only to be used with the power supply unit provided with the device.
• Turn off the tower fan before removing the adapter from the outlet. To unplug, grab the adapter and pull from the outlet. Never pull from the power cord.
• Keep the tower fan near the outlet it is plugged into. The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
• Always turn the tower fan off and unplug it when not in use and before moving, cleaning, or servicing the fan.
• Turn off and unplug the adapter when not in use for extended periods of time.
• Never place the cord near any heat source.
• Do not cover the cord with a rug, carpet, or other covering. Do not place the cord under furniture or appliances.
• To avoid a tripping hazard, keep the cord out of areas where people walk often. Place the cord where it will not be tripped over and safely coil the cord.
• A loose fit between the outlet and plug may cause overheating and a distortion of the adapter. Contact a qualified electrician to replace a loose or worn outlet.
• If the power adapter is damaged, it must be replaced by Arovast Corporation or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid an electric or fire hazard. Please contact Customer Support (see page 15).
• Your tower fan should only be used with 120V, 60Hz electrical systems. Do not plug into another type of outlet.

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
Your Levoit tower fan complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

This product contains a coin/button battery.

WARNING: CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD.

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing can lead to chemical burns, perforation of soft tissue, and death. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. Seek medical attention immediately.

• Place sticky tape around both sides of the battery and dispose of it immediately in an outdoor trashcan or recycle safely;
• Store spare batteries securely;
• Empty recycling units on a regular basis;
• Use non-transparent containers to keep the batteries out of view.

Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery is stuck in a child’s esophagus (food pipe). The child might:

• Cough, gag or drool a lot;
• Appear to have a stomach upset or a virus;
• Be sick;
• Point to their throat or stomach;
• Have pain in their abdomen, chest, or throat;
• Be tired or lethargic;
• Be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise “not themselves”;
• Lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite;
• Not want to eat solid food / be unable to eat solid food.

These sorts of symptoms vary or fluctuate, with the pain increasing and then subsiding.

A specific symptom to button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting fresh (bright red) blood. If a child does this, seek immediate medical help.

The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be cautious with “flat” or spare button or coin batteries in the home and the products that contain them. Be aware that even used button or coin batteries may cause injury
