IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

When using electrical appliances, these instructions and warnings should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS:

Do not use this Fan to ventilate areas where flammable liquids or vapors are used, stored or are present, including paints, gasoline, varnishes, floor refinishing products or solvents. ALWAYS read and follow all warnings and instructions on the containers for these products!
Always be sure the plug fits tightly into the outlet. When plugs fit loosely into outlets, they may slip partially out of the outlet and create a poor connection. This may cause outlets to overheat and create a potential fire hazard. Outlets in this condition should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
Always unplug the power cord when servicing, cleaning or moving the Fan. Do not use the ON/OFF switch as the sole means of disconnecting power. Never leave children unattended when the Fan is on or plugged in. Always turn off and unplug the fan when not in use.
Be certain that the power source for the Fan is 120V AC. Do not plug the Fan into 240V or other power source.
The Blue Plug on your Lasko Fan is a safety feature. It contains a non-replaceable safety device (fuse) that should not be removed or tampered with. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury, do not attempt to remove, replace, repair or tamper with the originally supplied plug. If the Fan has stopped functioning, it may be due to the safety device incorporated in this plug.
This fan has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is designed to fit into the outlet only one way. Match the wide blade to wide slot in outlet and fully insert. Do not attempt to bypass or defeat this safety feature. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, consult a qualified electrician. The outlet may need to be replaced.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).

WARNING: Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries away from children.

This product contains a lithium button/coil cell battery. If a new or used lithium button/coin cell battery is swallowed or enters the body, it can cause severe internal burns and can lead to death in as little as 2 hours. Always completely secure the battery compartment. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product, remove the batteries, and keep it away from children. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
The cells should be disposed of properly, including keeping them away from children; even used cells may cause injury.
