Maintenance and Care

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your fan.

  • Cleaning: Always unplug the fan before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces. For the fan blades and grille, use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment or a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the fan in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging or covered to protect it from dust and moisture.
  • UV Resistance: The fan is coated with U/V resistant all-weather paint, which helps protect it from sun exposure. However, prolonged direct sunlight may still cause some fading over time.
  • GFCI Plug: Periodically test the GFCI plug by pressing the "TEST" button, then the "RESET" button. If it does not reset, do not use the fan and consult a qualified electrician.
