4.3. Electrical Connection

Connect the fan to the main power supply according to the wiring diagram provided inside the fan's terminal block cover. The fan operates on 230 Volts and consumes 20 Watts. Ensure proper grounding. For models with timer and humidity sensor, additional connections may be required as per the internal diagram for these functions to operate correctly.

5. Operation

Once installed and connected to power, the fan is ready for operation.

5.1. Basic Function

The fan will activate when power is supplied. Depending on the model version (Standard, Pull Cord, Timer, Timer + Humidistat), its activation method will vary.

5.2. Timer Function

The integrated timer allows the fan to continue operating for a set period after the main power switch is turned off. This is ideal for clearing residual moisture or odors. The timer duration is typically adjustable via a small potentiometer located inside the fan's casing (refer to internal wiring diagram for exact location and adjustment instructions).

5.3. Humidity Sensor Function (for models with Humidistat)

The humidity sensor automatically activates the fan when the humidity level in the room exceeds a preset threshold. The fan will continue to operate until the humidity drops below the set level, or for the duration of the timer if both functions are active. The humidity threshold is typically adjustable via a small potentiometer located inside the fan's casing (refer to internal wiring diagram for exact location and adjustment instructions).

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular maintenance ensures efficient and long-lasting operation of your extractor fan.

• Disconnect Power: Always turn off the power supply to the fan before any cleaning or maintenance.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surface of the fan with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Grille Cleaning: Carefully remove the front grille (if detachable) and wash it with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before reattaching.
• Fan Blade Cleaning: If accessible, gently wipe the fan blades with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Be careful not to bend or damage the blades.
• Reassembly: Ensure all parts are dry and securely reassembled before restoring power.
