How It Works

• In contrast to a traditional fan which brings only cooling benefits when directly facing you; an air circulator works for any season, keeping the air in motion and making the entire room more comfortable to be in.
• This jet stream helps maintain a constant room temperature by ridding the room of cold and warm spots. It also clears stuffy atmospheres by circulating stale air with fresh air from an open window.
• Air circulators are the safe, all-year-round temperature regulation solution you’ve been looking for.
• This DC Air circulator can be used both indoors & outdoors and is rechargeable.
  Note : This model is designed for both indoor and outdoor usage and is perfect for activities such as camping. Please note that you must take the unit indoors during heavy rain, as this may damage the device. This device must also only be charged indoors, as the adaptor is not waterproof.

Where To Position

• During Summer, pointing the air circulator towards a wall halfway between the floor and the ceiling, as well as using the highest setting, will set up a high-speed air circulation pattern.
• This will cool down the room in an efficient manner. Pointing towards your air conditioner will help distribute the cool air faster, saving time and energy; essentially Turbo boosting your A/C.
• During Winter, the use of a heater alone produces warm air that rises naturally to the ceiling.
• By pointing the air circulator upwards, and utilizing the lowest speed setting, the hot air will circulate with the cooler air near the floor, resulting in a more even room temperature.

Parts

Operation

Note : Before usage, ensure you check if the voltage and frequency comply with the local power supply.

ON/OFF
Press the switch of the digital display screen in the center of the unit to turn the device on.

WIND SPEED
Rotate the switch to select wind speed. This device uses a step-less speed functionality. Rotating the switch to the right will gradually increase the wind speed. The light around the switch is a determination of the wind speed. When the light ring is completely full, this means the device is operating at maximum wind speed. When the battery power is less than 40%, the fan will enter a low rotation wind speed.

OSCILLATION
Press the switch for 3 seconds to enable the fan’s automatic swing function. The fan will oscillate up to 60° left and right. To stop this function, press the switch again for 3 seconds.

TILT HEAD
This unit has tilt-head functionality. You can tilt the head of the fan 300° up or down to angle the fan head to your preferred position.

Recharging

To charge this device, connect the adapter into the charging plug at the back of the unit behind the waterproof plug. When charging the unit with the adapter, ensure to connect the charging head of the product first, and then connect to the external power supply. The percentage shown on the digital display screen is the amount of battery power left. The screen will display 100% when completely charged, for one minute.
Note : When charging indoors, ensure to pull out the waterproof plug at the charging port. It is recommended to always charge indoors, but if charging outdoors, ensure to plug in the waterproof silicone cover at the charging port.
If the battery power of the unit is greater than 20%, it is possible to charge your phone and other USB-compatible devices using the air circulator. Remove the waterproof plug to see the USB plug, next to the charging plug.

Cleaning

Over time, dust can accumulate on the grille covers, filter (if applicable) and fan blades, which can affect the fans performance. It is recommended to clean the fan at least once a month.

1. Turn the unit OFF and disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
2. Remove any dust buildup with a soft brush.
3. Wipe the surface of the unit with a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used for any stubborn marks.
