General Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this type of product. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference, along with the completed warranty card, purchase receipt and carton. If applicable, pass these instructions on to the next owner of the appliance.
Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when using an electrical appliance, including the following:
Electrical safety and cord handling
· Voltage: Ensure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the voltage stated on the rating label. If this is not the case, do not use the fan.
· Separate outlet: Always plug the AC adaptor straight into a separate electrical outlet; do not use a multi-purpose socket for simultaneous use with other electrical devices.
· Water: To protect against fire and electric shock, do not immerse the AC adaptor, cord, plug or the fan itself in water or other liquid, or expose the electrical connections to water. Ensure your hands are dry before handling the plug or switching on the fan. Do not use the fan outdoors or on wet surfaces. Protect it from liquid spills.
· Damage: Check the power cord regularly for visible damage. If the adaptor cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its authorised service agent or appropriately qualified personnel in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING! Do not pick up or operate the fan if the AC adaptor, cord, plug or housing is damaged, or after it malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. In case of damage, contact our after sales support centre.
· Protect the adaptor and power cord: – Do not operate the fan with the AC adaptor’s power cord coiled up; always fully unwind. – Do not twist or kink the cord or let it touch heated surfaces or sharp edges. – Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of a table or bench. – Do not put any stress on the cord where it connects to the product. – Never carry the fan by the cord. – Arrange the cord away from any traffic area so no one will trip over it. – Do not run the cord under carpeting or cover it with rugs or runners. In the event of danger, the plug must be quickly and easily accessible.

Pay particular attention to the safety instructions on the previous pages.
· Assembly: The fan is equipped with an air-purifying HEPA filter, which is supplied separately for installation into the appliance housing before operation. Installation instructions are provided on the next page.
· Remote control: The fan comes with a remote control, which is powered by a CR2025 3V coin cell (contained inside the remote control). Before use, please pull the plastic insulation film out from the back side of the remote control. See page 25 for how to insert a new coin cell when the one supplied is depleted.
WARNING: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN!
The remote control contains a coin/button cell battery inside. Keep batteries out of reach of children. Swallowing can lead to chemical burns, perforation of soft tissue and death. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. If swallowed, immediately call the 24-hour Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 for fast expert advice.

Getting Started (Cont.)

Installing the filter into the fan
This bladeless fan with purifier is equipped with an air-purifying H13 HEPA filter, which captures 99.95% of fine air-polluting particles. Before using the fan you must unwrap the filter and install it in its proper place in the fan housing.
1. Take the filter out of the protective plastic bag and discard the bag safely.
2. To open the top cover, push the wind outlet gently to the back–it can be tilted up to 15 degrees to the front and back, but not more. Place your hand on the top cover, push down firmly and turn the cover slightly in anticlockwise direction (to the left) until it snaps open (Fig. 1).
3. To attach the filter to the top cover, place the top cover upside down on a sturdy surface. Place the filter in the grooves, then push the filter down firmly with both hands until you hear click into place (Fig. 2).
4. To install the filter, place the filter with the top cover into the housing (Fig. 3). Turn it loosely until the curved edges almost line up, then press down firmly and turn the cover in clockwise direction (to the right) until it locks securely into place.

Instructions

Location
Place the fan on a dry, flat, stable surface. Do not place it on an inclined or soft surface to avoid damage or malfunctions caused by the fan tipping over.
Avoid blocking the air inlet when using the fan. Do not place it near curtains or similar to avoid objects blocking the air inlet, which could impair operation of the fan (Fig. 4).
Do not place any objects within 30 cm of the air outlet, otherwise the fan’s performance will be impaired.

Fig. 4

away from curtains

Connection
Insert the appliance plug of the AC adaptor in the DC socket at the back of the fan body. Then plug the power plug into an appropriate electrical outlet and switch on the power to the outlet. The fan will enter standby mode and the LED display illuminates.

Remote control preparation

The remote control for the bladeless fan is powered by a CR2025 coin cell (contained inside the remote control). Before use, make sure you have removed the plastic insulation film from the back side of the remote control.

When using the remote control, point it at the signal receiver at the front of the fan to maximise the remote control signal (Fig. 5).

NOTE: This fan may respond to the remote control of other devices, and other devices may respond to this fan’s remote control. This is due to the overlapping frequencies of the remote control. It is not a quality problem in the product itself. To avoid misuse, keep the remote control away from other electrical devices during operation.

· Push the locking tab to one side (Fig. 10) and pull out the battery holder at the back side of the remote control (Fig. 11).
· Remove the old coin cell from the device and insert a new one, ensuring to match the polarity, as illustrated on the back of the remote control. Then push the battery holder back into the device.
· Reinstall the screw and tighten it to secure the battery compartment.
