FAN OPERATION
1. Turning on and setting the fan speed
1.1 To turn on the appliance touch the ON/SPEED sensor. The display will show a symbol which will
be on as long as the fan is in operation.
1.2 When first turned on the fan will operate at low speed and the NORMAL mode will be set. All three
fans will be in operation. The automatic oscillation will be turned off and the auto-off timer will
not be set.
1.3 The next time it is turned on the last settings will be renewed. This does not apply to the auto-off
timer and the SLEEP mode.
1.4 If the ventilator is operation, use the ON/SPEED sensor to control the fan speed at three levels
LOW→MID→HI. The corresponding information will be shown on the display.
2. Selecting an operating mode
2.1 The MODE sensor is used to select the operating mode from the selection of NORMAL→NATURAL→SLEEP.
2.2 If you select the NORMAL mode, neither NATURAL nor SLEEP will be shown on the display. The fan
speed is constant. Note: In the NORMAL mode it is possible to change the fan speed setting at any
time, see chaper Turning on and setting the fan speed.
2.3 If the NATURAL mode is set, the display will show NATURAL. The fan speed is controlled automati-
cally. High, medium and low speed will rotate in short time intervals.
2.3 If the SLEEP mode is set, the display will show SLEEP. The fan speed is controlled automatically. In
short time intervals high, medium and low speeds will rotate. After 30 minutes of operation the
speed will be reduced and the medium, low speeds and off are rotated. After a further 30 minutes
the ventilator speed will again be reduced to where the low, lower speed and off are rotated.
3. Setting automatic oscillation
3.1 To activate automatic oscillation touch the SWING sensor. If the automatic oscillation function is
active, the symbol will be shown on the display and the fan body will oscillate in the angle of
90°. If you touch the SWING sensor again, the fan oscillation will be turned off.
3.2 The SWING sensor is also used to set the desired fan direction without having to manually move the
fan. Use the SWING sensor to activate the automatic oscillation function. Wait until the fan turns to
the desired direction, and then turn off the oscillation function.
Do not set the direction of air flow by turning the body of the fan by force relative to the base of
the device. If the direction of air flow does not suit you, hold the fan by the handle and turn the
entire appliance including the base according to your requirements. Make sure not to entangle the
power cord.
4. Setting the auto-off timer
The TIMER sensor is used to set the auto-off timer in the range of 0.5 to 7.5 hours. Each time the
TIMER sensor is touched the auto-off time is increased by 0.5 hour. The relevant setting will appear
on the display. Every 30 minutes the remaining time is updated on the display. After the set time is
reached the fan will automatically turn off.

5. Controlling individual fans
5.1 Use the SHIFT sensor to switch the control panel to the mode for turning individual fans on or off.
If you touch the SHIFT sensor the items FAN1, FAN2 and FAN3 will start flashing on the screen or
only some of them depending on which fan is operating at the time.
5.2 Use the MODE/1 sensor to turn fan 1 on and off. The corresponding information will be shown or
turned off on the display.
The SWING/2 and TIMER/3 sensors are used to control fans 2 and 3.
5.3 Touch the SHIFT sensor and do not make any selection for 5 seconds, the control display will auto-
matically return to the original mode.
5.4 If you turn off all three fans, the appliance will be completely turned off.
6. Turning off
The OFF touch sensor is used to turn off the appliance. After it has been turned off the appliance
will be in stand-by mode and can be turned on at any time by pressing the ON/SPEED sensor.
7. Using the remote control
The functions of the remote control buttons are the same as those of the touch sensors on the con-
trol panel. If you wish to use the remote control, point it at approximately the level of the control
panel. The maximum signal range of the remote control is 6 m. Note: If there are obstacles located
between the remote control and the control panel, the signal may not be transmitted.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
• Before cleaning, turn of the fan and disconnect the power cord from the power socket.
• Wipe the surface of the fan using a clean and dry wipe. For cleaning do not use cleaning products
causing abrasion, petrol and other solvents.

semble it and put it back into the box.
