Warning
The Rapide LED Inline Fans (41800040660 & 41800040670) are supplied with an
MR16 3 Watt LED lamp. This is the only lamp suitable for use with this fan.
Exceeding the lamp wattage will invalidate the warranty.
The fan must be connected to power mains through an automatic circuit breaker
integrated into the fixed wiring system with the gap between the breaker
contacts on all poles not less than 3mm. Check the fan for any visible damages
of the impeller and the casing before starting installation. The casing internals
must be free of any foreign objects which can damage the impeller blades.
Misuse of the product or any unauthorized modification will invalidate the
warranty.
Take steps to prevent ingress of smoke, carbon monoxide and other combustion
products into the room through open chimney flues or other fire-protection
devices. Sufficient air supply must be provided for proper combustion and
exhaust of gases through the chimney of fuel burning equipment to prevent
back draing.

Mounting - Fascia
1. Ceiling mounted ventilation should be ducted through the roof space, by
ducting to an external soffit under the eaves or grille in the slope of your roof.
NB: Ducting installed between a floor and ceiling can only run between joists,
not across them.
2. Remove the fascia grille by twisting anticlockwise. Mark the position of the
fascia with a pencil in a suitable position on the ceiling, making sure that it is
between the joists.
3. Drill a 9mm hole through the ceiling anywhere along the edge of the pencil
line. Now cut out the hole with a pad saw/hole saw.
4. Hold the vent fascia against the ceiling and mark the position of the fixing
holes. Fix the unit in place using suitable plasterboard fixings (not supplied).
Re-attach the fascia grille by twisting clockwise.
5. Attach flexible ducting with the metal hose clamps. Ensure that the ducting
has a smooth flow towards the motor body to minimise air resistance. Follow
a similar procedure for the outside wall grille. Extra ducting may be used to
extend the distance to the external grille but performance will be reduced.

2. Place motor in desired
location and mark
fixing holes.
3. Fix motor to desired surface,
using suitable wall plugs if
necessary.
4. Connect the flexible ducting to both sides of the Inline fan with the metal
hose clamps. Ensure there is a minimum of 1m straight ducting between
fascia and fan.
Mounting - Fan unit
1. Install the Rapide Inline fan within the lo or ceiling space (ensuring correct
direction of air flow using arrows on the fan). DO NOT COVER motor or LED
driver with lo insulation. The fan is suitable for only horizontal mounting on a
wall (fig. A) or a floor (fig. B). When mounting the fan ensure there is a minimum
of 1m straight ducting to the motor body (see Fig B, p.3).

Timer System
Warning! The timer circuit is under mains voltage. Ensure mains power
supply is switched off before making any adjustments.
The fan is operational aer the control voltage is supplied by the external switch
(e.g., by the light switch) to the input terminal LT. Aer the fan is switched off the
fan continues to operate within the timer period set by the timer from 2 to 30
minutes. To adjust the run on timer, rotate the control knob clockwise to increase
and anti-clockwise to decrease the off-delay time respectively (see below
diagram). Please note the adjustment should only be done without the fan
running.
The set includes a specially designed plastic screwdriver for timer setting
adjustments. Only use the plastic screwdriver to alter the turn-off delay time. Do
not use a screwdriver, knife, etc. for adjustments so as not to damage the circuit
board.
