Safety

Plug the smoke machine only in an earthed mains outlet or extension cord!

ATTENTION: the power cord can only be replaced by an original replacement, supplied by Tronios. Be careful when filling the fluid tank. First of all, unplug the mains lead! Then unscrew the cap on the tank and fill it by means of a funnel. Only use the original Beamz smoke fluid which is environmentally friendly and, if used correctly, leaves no residues. Do not obstruct the openings on top of the case to guarantee good ventilation. The heating element of the smoke machine generates heat which needs to be removed. Don’t put any objects on the smoke machine.

Installation and Use

Unpack the fog machine. Do not connect yet the net cable. Connect the lead of the manual control with the 3-pin plug at the rear of the smoke machine. Fill the fluid tank by means of a funnel. Plug the unit into a mains outlet. Thus the heating element is automatically switched on. Depending on the room temperature, it takes about 6 minutes until the working temperature is reached. Then the thermostat is clicking and the LED on the manual control lights up. Push the switch once and the smoke machine will produce a nice thick fog. Once the smoke machine has reached its working temperature (the LED is lit) the smoke machine can produce continuous fog for a max 1 minute. After this period of time, the fog generator is cooled so much down that the thermostat switches off. Wait a few minutes until the working temperature is reached again. It is recommended to produce smoke with small pauses in between so that the temperature is maintained and the thermostat doesn’t switch off. Use the smoke machine only when it is placed on the ground.
NOTE: Nozzle can be very HOT !!

Location
Select a location where it is easy to fill the tank. It is also possible to hang the unit by means of the supplied holder and
fixing screws.
