Safety information

Important safety instructions

• This air circulator must not be used in rooms under the following conditions: potentially explosive atmosphere, aggressive atmospheres, featuring a high concentration of solvents or an extremely high ratio of dust.
• Magnets: The remote control contains magnets. Please note the following: Pacemakers and defibrillators may be affected by magnets. If this affects you, please do not put the remote control in a pocket and warn anyone likely to use the air circulator or the remote that it has a magnet. Credit cards and data cards can also be affected by magnets and should not be placed near the air circulator remote.
• Keep children away: Do not allow children to play with or around this unit, as it could result in injury. Be sure the unit is inaccessible to children when not attended. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Protect mains adaptor from damage: Never operate a unit with a damaged mains adaptor, as this may lead to electrical or fire hazards. If the mains adaptor is damaged, it must be replaced by a mains adaptor of the same type and amperage rating.
• Extension cords: Extension cords must be grounded and able to deliver the appropriate voltages to the unit.
• Handle with care: Do not drop, throw or crash the air circulator. Rough treatment can damage the components or wiring and create a hazardous condition.
• Run on a stable surface: Always operate the air circulator on a stable, level surface, for example, the floor or a strong counter, so that the air circulator cannot fall and cause injury.
• Keep electrical components dry: Never allow water inside the air circulator’s electrical components. If these areas become wet for any reason, thoroughly dry them before using the air circulator. If in doubt, do not use the air circulator and consult a qualified electrician or a Meaco-approved engineer.

The operator must make the operating instructions available for the user and make sure that the user understands the manual.
