Key Features:

  • 18-inch fan diameter for wide coverage.
  • 3-speed settings for customized airflow.
  • Internal orbital oscillation function for natural wind effect.
  • 180° vertical tilt for convenient air direction adjustment.
  • Convenient handle for enhanced portability.

Setup

  1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the fan from its packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
  2. Placement: Place the fan on a firm, level surface to avoid tipping. Ensure there is adequate space around the fan for proper air circulation and oscillation. Keep the fan away from curtains, drapes, or any objects that may be drawn into the fan blades.
  3. Power Connection: Ensure the fan is in the "OFF" position before plugging it into a standard 120V AC electrical outlet.

Operating Instructions

  1. Power On/Off: Locate the control knob or buttons on the fan. Turn the knob to the desired speed setting (1, 2, or 3) to turn the fan on. Turn the knob to "OFF" to turn the fan off.
  2. Adjusting Fan Speed: Select from the available speed settings (Low, Medium, High) by rotating the control knob.
  3. Oscillation Function: To activate the internal orbital oscillation, locate the oscillation control (if separate from speed control, otherwise it might be integrated). The fan will begin to move the air in a wider pattern. To stop oscillation, adjust the control back to its non-oscillating position.
  4. Vertical Tilt Adjustment: The fan head can be manually tilted up or down to direct airflow. Gently grasp the fan head and adjust it to the desired vertical angle.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and efficient operation of your fan.

  • Cleaning:
    • Always unplug the fan from the power outlet before cleaning.
    • Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces of the fan.
    • To clean the fan blades and inside the grille, use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment or compressed air to remove dust and debris. Do not use water directly on the fan.
    • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents as they may damage the fan's finish.
