Timer: The timer function allows fog to be emitted at designated intervals. To activate the timer func-tion, press the yellow timer button. A yellow LED will illuminate when the timer function is activated. The “duration” knob will control the length of fog burst. The “interval” knob will control the time between bursts. Turning these knobs in a clockwise direction will increase there values, while turning them in a counter-clockwise direction will decrease their values.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience low fog output, pump noise, or no fog output at all, disconnect the device from power and discontinue use immediately. Do not continue to push the remote control’s activation button, as this may damage the device. Check fluid level, the external fuse or breaker, and remote connection, and verify that the wall outlet is sending power. If none of these factors prove to be the cause of the problem, and the unit fails to operate correctly, the unit may require service. Please contact customer support for further instructions. Please do not return the unit to your dealer without contacting customer support first.
