3. Keep Unit Grounded: Always operate the unit with a grounding plug and a grounded electrical outlet. A grounding plug is an essential safety feature that helps reduce the risk of shock or fire.
4. Protect Power Cord from Damage: Never operate a unit with a damaged power cord, as this may lead to electrical or fire hazards. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a cord of the same type and amperage rating.
5. Extension Cords: Extension cords must be grounded and able to deliver the appropriate voltages to the unit.
6. 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.
7. Run-on Stable Surface: Always operate the unit on a stable, level surface, for example, the floor or a strong counter, so that the air circulator cannot fall and cause injury.
8. Keep Out of Water: Never operate the unit in pooled or standing water, as this may create a risk of injury from electrical shock. Do not store or operate outdoors. If electrical wiring or components become wet, thoroughly dry them before using the unit. If in doubt do not use the air circulator and consult a qualified electrician or a Meaco-approved engineer.
9. Keep Air Intakes Clear: Do not clog or block the air intakes by placing the air circulator too close to curtains, walls, or anything that will restrict the air inlet. This may cause the unit to overheat and result in a fire or electrical hazard.
10. 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 instruction available for the user and make sure that the user does understand the manual.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Always turn the air circulator off and unplug it from the socket before cleaning. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the external and internal parts of the air circulator. Do not allow the air circulator to get wet. In order to access the fan blades, follow the steps below:

1. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the two small screws at the top back of the air circulator. They are located directly below each end of the handle

Squeeze the two tabs to the left and right of the screws and pull away. At the front of the fan blades, there is a locking cap – unscrew the cap in a clockwise motion to remove the fan blades.

3. Clean the fan blades and the internal part of the fan using a soft dry cloth. Reverse the procedure to put the air circulator back together. Make sure the locking cap is tightened securely.

REPLACING THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY

If the remote control fails to work whilst close to the fan, the battery will need replacing. The battery is a CR2025 and can be replaced following the steps in the diagram below.

STORAGE

When storing the air circulator use the cable compartment at the back of the air circulator to store the mains cable. The cable compartment cover may be stiff to remove at first use the small lever at the top to pull it away from the air circulator.  We recommend storing the fan in a plastic bag or the original box to protect the air circulator from dust. Remember the air circulator can also be used in winter to help distribute warm air more effectively within a room.
