User Manual
https://duux.com/en/instruction-movies-whisper-flex/
Thank you for choosing Dulux.
We’re so glad you decided to read the instructions to your new Dulux fan! Many
users casually dismiss instructions and seek to figure it out on their own.
But studies show that people who read instructions will get up to speed more
quickly and efficiently than those who poke around with trial and error.
At Duux, we believe in the importance of a comfortable and healthy living
environment. Enhancing your well-being by designing appealing, functional and
effective products is the passion that drives us every day. With our range of
innovative air treatment products, we aim to provide you the best possible
indoor air quality.
Meet the cooling fan that surprises you with a gentle breeze, a vigorous gust
of wind, and everything in between. The Duux Whisper Flex has no less than 26
settings. In this way, you can always find the perfect airflow environment.
Thanks to the horizontal and vertical oscillation function, the Whisper Flex
provides a pleasant coolness throughout any room. Choose yourself, which mode
you prefer: fixed speed, ‘natural wind’ or perhaps the night mode, by which
you are lulled into sleep by the whispering breeze. The separately available
dock and battery pack allow you to freely move the device without wires.
Read the manual carefully to get the most out of your Whisper Flex fan.
