Congratulations on purchasing a
Convair ClimateWizard. Convair is a
world leader in climate control
solutions.
ClimateWizard addresses the
common problems associated with
heating in winter - excessive
temperature, dryness, static electricity
and dust - which can cause symptoms
such as skin irritations, allergies and
respiratory problems.
ClimateWizard adds moisture to the
air and lowers the temperature in
overheated and dry rooms.
ClimateWizard also purifies the air by
using an air filter which reduces
airborne contaminants.

radiators or stoves. Do not use this
appliance if the plug or cord is
damaged. Caution: Do not plug in the
cord with wet hands as electric shock
may result.

gentle spray of water while it is still
in the rear panel. Do not use a
high pressure hose to clean the pad.
Replace the pad if salt has built-up

pulleys. Ensure that the belt is
replaced in the same orientation
as shown in the diagram so that
the pump rotates in the right
direction.
