HOW TO USE s
Warning: The appliance comes fully assembled. DO NOT operate the appliance with
any of its parts disassembled. The entire assembled unit works as a single appliance.
The appliance must only operate in the upright position. Any other position will be
hazardous.
1. Avoid using the appliance in a closed environment. The appliance should be used
in an open and well-ventilated environment.
2. When the appliance operates under the COOL function, the Water Tank must be
filled with water. Although the appliance can be used as an ordinary fan without
using the COOL function, accidentally operating the appliance under the COOL
function with an empty Water Tank may result in possible damage to the appliance.
Thus, to be on the safe side, the Water Tank of the appliance should be filled with
water prior to operation.
3. When moving the appliance, be aware that water can spill out of the Water Tank.
Thus when moving an appreciable distance, it is recommended that all water be
drained from the Water Tank prior to the move.
Emptying & Filling the Water Tank
4. The Water Tank should be emptied and re-filled with fresh, clean water frequently.
DO NOT fill the Water Tank with other liquids.
To turn ON
5. Press the Cool Button OFF and Speed Button 0 (OFF) on the Control Panel.
6. Insert the plug of the power cable directly into the wall socket. Ensure that the plug
fits tightly into the socket. Switch the socket switch ON.
7. Press any of the Speed Buttons – 1, 2 or 3.
8. (optional) Press the Swing Button on the Control Panel to keep the vertical Front
Louvers swinging from side to side continuously or to freeze the movement.

10. When the COOL mode is activated, the Water Pump in the Water Tank pumps
water to saturate the Cooling Pad at the back of the appliance. Air which flows
through the Cooling Pads lose heat to the water and exit at a slightly lower
temperature. Thus a decrease in temperature occurs; the exact decrease depends
on the relative humidity and air temperature. If the button is pressed when the
Speed is high, the fan speed will drop to its lowest speed for 30 seconds before
resuming normal operations.
To turn OFF
11. Press the Cool Button to exit the COOL mode and the Speed Button 0 (OFF) on
