Operating Instructions
Your Cecotec EnergySilence Aero 350 ceiling fan is designed for ease of use. It features two pull chains for control:
- Fan Speed Control: One pull chain controls the fan speed. Pulling it cycles through the three available speeds: Low (Night/Eco), Medium (Normal), and High (Turbo), followed by off.
- Light Control: The other pull chain controls the integrated light. Pulling it turns the light on or off.
Summer/Winter Function (Cool&Heat System)
The fan includes a reversible motor function to optimize air circulation for different seasons. A switch on the motor housing allows you to change the direction of blade rotation:
- Summer Mode (Downward Airflow): Blades rotate counter-clockwise, pushing air downwards to create a cooling breeze.
- Winter Mode (Upward Airflow): Blades rotate clockwise, drawing air upwards to circulate warm air concentrated near the ceiling down into the room.
Important: Always turn off the fan and ensure the blades have stopped completely before changing the direction of rotation.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your ceiling fan:

- Blade Tightness: Periodically check that all blade screws are tight. Loose blades can cause wobbling and noise.
- Light Bulb Replacement: Ensure the power is off before replacing the light bulb. Use a bulb of the correct wattage and type as specified in the physical manual.
- Lubrication: This fan features a permanently lubricated motor and does not require additional oiling.
