- Do not twist or kink the cord or let it touch heated surfaces.
- Do not put any stress on the cord where it connects to the product.
- Never carry the fan by the cord.
- Arrange the cord away from any traffic area so no one will trip over it.
- Do not run the cord under carpeting or cover it with rugs or runners.
• Winding the cord: If winding the power cord, avoid tight bends as this
could damage the cord.
• WARNING! No extension cord, no timer: Do not use this fan with an
extension cord, plug adaptor, external timer or separate speed control device.
• Connection: To insert the plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into a separate
electrical outlet. Do not use more than one electrical appliance at the same

Assembly
The stand must be fitted to the fan before use. The stand is supplied in two
sections, upper and lower (Fig. 1). The lower section includes a guide for the
power cable.
• Lay the tower fan on a flat, stable surface for assembly of the base
stand. Stand the fan on its top surface so that the base is visible, holding
it carefully in place. You may need to rest it on a soft material, such as
a towel, to avoid scratching the control panel or your floor/ assembly
surface.
• Place the upper half of the stand onto the base of the fan. This will align
with three of the fixing pillars on the base.
• Place the lower half of the base over the upper half, ensuring that the
power cable is not trapped under the stand. Use the four long screws to
secure the stand to the fan (Fig. 2).

FAQs and Troubleshooting Guide
• What are the differences between the speed and modes?
- The SPEED button lets you set the fan blade speed to low, medium or
high.
