OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Power Button (On/Off)
- After the fan has been plugged in and switched on at the wall socket, the device beeps twice and enters the standby state, all functions and displays are turned off.
- In the standby state, press the Power (On/Off) button once to turn on the device. The Power icon will be displayed on the control panel as well as the fan icon . The fan will default to wind speed setting 10.
- In the power-on state, press the Power (On/Off) button to shut down the machine and enter the standby state (if horizontal oscillation is turned on, it will return to the centre point before entering the standby state, but vertical oscillation will not).
Note: If the horizontal oscillation is not centred due to sudden power
failure or abnormal operation, please turn on the horizontal oscillation
function after power on, and then turn off the power to return horizontal
oscillation to the centre point.
Speed Control Dial
- In the power-on state, the fan will default to wind speed setting 10. When the wind speed control dial in rotated to the right the wind speed will increase, and if rotated to the left it will decrease. Once the desired wind speed has been chosen it will flash 5 times before remaining on the screen. The wind speed can be set at levels 1-32.
- When the maximum wind speed is reached (level 32) a beep will sound to alert you that the fan cannot increase the speed any further. Likewise, when the minimum wind speed is reached (level 1) a beep will also sound to alert you that the fan cannot decrease the speed any further.
- If the wind speed control dial is inactive for 5 seconds or if you press another button within 5 seconds, the control panel will immediately display the current wind speed.
- The default operation of the wind speed control dial is to adjust the wind speed level. If you press the Timer button to enter the timer function, the wind speed control dial can be used to adjust the time.
Timer Off Function
- The fan can be set to turn off after a certain length of time. To do this, turn the fan on using the Power (On/Off) button , either on the control panel or remote. Then press the Timer button . 1h will be displayed on the control panel and will flash. If the timer is not set, only the wind speed level is displayed.
- To change the time using the remote control use the buttons to increase/decrease the hour displayed. To set the time leave the hour to flash 5 times on the control panel. This will then set and begin. The timer can be set from 0-12 hours.
- To change the time using the control panel, turn the wind speed control dial to the right to gradually increase the time. When the maximum timer length is reached (12 hours) a beep will sound to alert you that the time cannot increase any further. Likewise, when the minimum timer length is reached a beep will also sound to alert you that the time cannot decrease any further. To set the time leave the desired hour to flash 5 times on the control panel. This will then set and begin.
- Once the timer is set, it will immediately begin counting down until it reaches 0. The fan will then turn off and enter standby mode. Please note the fan will not beep when it switches off.
- When both the wind speed and the timer functions have been set, the control panel will alternatively display each setting with intervals of 10 seconds.
Timer On Function
- The fan can be sent to turn on after a set period (between 0-12 hours). To do this ensure that the fan has to be in standby mode (nothing displayed on the control panel), then press the Timer button . The time will then appear on the control panel display.
- You can now change the delay start time shown on the control panel by turning the wind speed control dial to the right to gradually increase or left to decrease the time. When the maximum delayed start time is reached (12 hours) a beep will sound to alert you that the time cannot increase any further. Likewise, when the minimum delayed start time is reached a beep will also sound to alert you that the time cannot decrease any further. To set the time leave the desired hour to flash 5 times on the control panel. This will then set and begin. Please note that the delay start time length will remain displayed on the control panel, but the fan will not operate until the time that has been set elapses.
- If using the remote control, when the fan is in standby mode use the buttons to increase/decrease the hour displayed. To set the delayed start time leave the hour to flash 5 times on the control panel. This will then set and begin. The timer can be set from 0-12 hours. Please note that the delay start time length will remain displayed on the control panel, but the fan will not operate until the time that has been set elapses, and the fan will return the last settings it had previously been on (Night mode and Timer functions will not be restored).
- If the Timer function is reset at any point during the countdown, then the new time will be scheduled and the initial timer disregarded.
Wind Mode Function
-
When the fan is turned on for the first time, it will begin on Normal wind mode.
-
To change the wind mode, press the Wind Mode button to scroll through the 3 settings. The corresponding icons for Natural and Night mode will be displayed on the control panel. Normal mode does not have an icon. To select a mode, press the Wind Mode button once to set Natural mode and twice to select Night mode . Press a third time to return to Normal mode. After a few seconds in the chosen mode the fan will adapt to the selected setting.
-
In Natural mode , there are 32 wind speeds divided into three groups, which can be selected using the wind speed control dial or the / buttons on the remote control:
• Low level natural wind (represented by wind speed 10 on the control panel display)
• Medium level natural wind (represented by wind speed 20 on the control panel display)
• High level natural wind (represented by wind speed 32 on the control panel display)
The diagrams below demonstrate how each selected level cycles through low, medium and high wind speeds to simulate various types of natural breeze:
-
In Night mode , only wind speed levels of 10, 20 and 32 can be selected using the wind speed control dial or the buttons on the remote control. These are grouped in the same way as in Natural mode:
• Low level Night mode: constantly running at low level natural wind type
• Medium level Night mode: runs at medium level natural wind type for 30mins, then constantly runs at low level wind type
• High level Night mode: runs at high level natural wind type for 30mins, then runs at medium level natural wind type for 30mins, then constantly runs at low level wind type
Vertical Oscillation Function
When the fan is on, press the Vertical Oscillation button . The fan will then
vertically oscillate automatically 90°.
Horizontal Oscillation Function
- When the fan is on, press the button to enter the horizontal oscillation function. The default oscillation angle is 30° which will appear on the control panel display. Press the button again to change the angle to 90°, again for 180° and again for 360°. Press a further time to turn off the horizontal oscillation.
- When the horizontal oscillation function is on and the desired angle has been selected, the corresponding angle will be displayed on the control panel and the fan will oscillate at this angle continuously until the angle is changed or the horizontal oscillation function is turned off.
Note: When turning on the fan from stand by the Horizontal Oscillation
function will resume to the same setting as previously before turning to stand
by.
Note: If the horizontal oscillation is not centred due to sudden power
failure or abnormal operation, please turn on the horizontal oscillation
function after power on, and then turn off the power to return horizontal
oscillation to the centre point.
Control Panel Display Function
When the fan is turned on, press the control panel display button to turn off
the control panel display. Press again to turn the display back on. When the
