Natural mode:
The operation of natural mode is shown in the following figure:

Nature mode:   is a pre-programmed mode that automatically changes the fan speed cyclically from high to medium to low, creating the effect of natural wind. The LED display will only show the initial selected speed {high, mid, low). All other speeds activated and deactivated automatically are not displayed on the screen.

• Sleep mode:
  When the appliance enters sleep mode, it will assume the most recent wind speed of the previous mode as its initial speed, then decrease one level in speed in 30-minute intervals. The fan speed indicator light will also change at 30 minute intervals until the selected timer period has ended. If no timer has been set, the appliance will keep running at low speed in normal mode.
  When in sleep mode, the appliance will operate in the following way:

  • High speed: 30 minutes high speed normal mode ➔ 30 minutes medium speed normal mode, corresponding mid fan speed LED icon will be ON ➔ constant low speed normal mode {corresponding low speed LED icon will be ON) until the preset time period ends or the unit is shut down.
  • Medium speed: 30 minutes medium speed normal mode ➔ constant low speed normal mode {corresponding mid speed LED icon will be ON) until the preset time period ends or the unit is shut down.
  • Low  speed: Machine will keep operating at low fan speed in normal wind {corresponding mid speed LED icon will be ON) until the preset timer period ends or the unit is shut down.
    When the machine is in sleep mode, the speed icon will change at 30 minute intervals, and the icons will not change as the speeds in normal mode.

  2. This machine has an uninterruptible power memory function. If the power isn’t turned off completely (kept in standby mode), the fan will start in the most recent selected state before shutting down when it is turned on again. Sleep mode, drying mode, and timer settings are not memorized, however.
  3. If there has been no operation for 1 minute or more, the indicator lights’ brightness will dim by 30%.
  4. If the fan is restarted and the power has not been shut off since its previous use, the machine will begin operating from the mid fan speed before switching to the memorized fan speed after 3 seconds.

Water filling
Before turning on the cooling/humidifying function, please add water to the water tank. Before adding water, rotate the bobbing bracket by 90 degrees. Then, pull out the water tank halfway and gradually fill to the maximum indicated level. When finished, push the water tank back in and rotate the bobbing bracket back to its original position.

Please pay attention to the water level in the water tank when adding water manually (as shown in picture 5).

1. When adding water, please be careful to fill at least to the minimum indicated water level and not to exceed the maximum indicated water level.
2. Be sure to use clean tap water to fill the water tank.
3. Tips: When the machine is used for the first time, it may be accompanied by a slight smell, and the water in the tank may bear a slight discoloration. These are normal, non-toxic, and harmless phenomena and will not affect your health.
4. If ice pack is included, the water level should not be higher than the MAX line of the water tank.

Remote control operation:

1. First, open the battery cover of the remote control and insert a 3V CR2032 battery. Battery cover opening method: hold in the direction of arrow 1 first to remove the button on the battery cover, then draw it out in the direction of arrow 2.
2. Please aim at the receiver when using the remote control.
3. After the battery has been exhausted, pull out the cover following the indicated directions and replace with a new battery (3V CR2032). Please note the positive pole and negative pole of the battery when inserting. Then, replace the battery cover.
4. The cells shall be disposed of properly, including keeping them away from children; and
5. Even used cells may cause injury

USAGE OF ICE PACKS:
Ice packs have cold storage and heat preservation characteristics, which can absorb any heat in the water in your water tank, keeping the water temperature lower than the ambient room temperature for several hours to make the air from the air conditioning unit cooler.

1. Place the ice pack into your freezer until it freezes completely.
2. Place the frozen ice pack into the water tank of your air conditioning unit or ice box. After about 10 minutes, the water temperature in the water tank will be lower than the ambient room temperature.
3. WARNING: Do not open the cover of the ice pack or swallow its contents.
