• Fan Speed Buttons (1-6): Adjusts the fan speed from 1 (lowest) to 6 (highest).
• Timer Buttons (2H, 4H, 8H): Sets the fan to automatically shut off after 2, 4, or 8 hours, respectively.
• Forward/Reverse Button (⇆): Changes the direction of the fan blades.

Reversible DC Motor for Seasonal Use:

The fan features a reversible DC motor, allowing you to optimize airflow for different seasons.

• Summer Mode (Counter-clockwise): Blades turn counter-clockwise to create a downward airflow, producing a cooling effect.
• Winter Mode (Clockwise): Blades turn clockwise to create an upward airflow, circulating warm air trapped near the ceiling throughout the room.

Image: This graphic illustrates the two operational modes of the fan: in summer, it creates a cooling downdraft (counter-clockwise rotation), and in winter, it circulates warm air (clockwise rotation) to improve thermal comfort.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your ceiling fan.

• Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the fan blades and motor housing. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Blade Balance: If the fan wobbles, check that all blade screws are tightened. A balancing kit (not included) may be used if wobbling persists.
