HOW TO USE

Insert power cord plug into port that extends from the bottom of the product. Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
Touch to power ON or OFF. Your circulator returns to the last saved memory setting.
Select desired speed by pressing -/+. Speed is indicated by a number of white LEDs as shown on the display.
Swipe any area along the control panel perimeter to turn ON oscillation and select desired oscillation angle and direction of airﬂ ow. Select 90°/180°/270°/360° or inﬁ nite 360° oscillating airﬂ ow in either direction. The oscillation angle and direction of airﬂ ow are indicated by the blue LEDs as shown on the display.
Press and hold anywhere along the control panel perimeter for 2 seconds to turn OFF oscillation.
Double-tap at any area along the control panel perimeter for targeted airﬂ ow. The airﬂ ow will then point where directed.
Note: The display will dim after 3 seconds of inactivity and reawaken with any touch to the control panel.

CLEANING

Because your ATOM 1 moves a substantial amount of air, it will need regular cleaning. The fan has no user-serviceable parts inside and cannot be opened for cleaning. Never clean the product in any manner other than instructed in this owner’s guide.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and injury to persons, unplug the unit before cleaning.

Power off and unplug the unit prior to cleaning.
Dust or wipe the circulator with a damp cloth.
Use the brush attachment on your household vacuum cleaner to vacuum any accumulated dust.

Note: The motor is permanently lubricated and requires no oiling.

STORAGE

During the off-season or after extended periods of non-use, you may choose to store your circulator. To ensure the long life of the product, it is recommended to store your
circulator by following these instructions:

Cleaning is recommended before storage.

Unplug the power cord and bundle loosely.
Cover, or place back in retail carton if available. This prevents the circulator from accumulating dust over time.
Store the circulator in a cool and dry location.
