6. Operating Instructions
Operating your Mistral MTF121 Table Fan is straightforward:
- Power On/Off: Locate the rotary switch on the fan base (refer to Figure 4.3). Turn the switch from "0" (OFF) to your desired speed setting.

- "0": Fan is OFF.
- "1": Low speed setting for gentle airflow.
- "2": Medium speed setting for moderate airflow.
- "3": High speed setting for maximum airflow.
- Oscillation (Swing Function): To activate the oscillation feature, locate the oscillation knob/pin on top of the motor housing at the rear of the fan. Push the knob down to engage oscillation. Pull the knob up to stop oscillation and direct airflow in a fixed direction.
- Adjusting Tilt: The fan head can be tilted up or down to direct airflow. Loosen the adjustment knob on the side of the fan stand, adjust the head to the desired angle, and then tighten the knob securely.
