- Fan ON/OFF: Press the fan icon button to turn the fan on or off.
- Fan Speed: Buttons labeled 1-6 control the fan speed, from lowest (1) to highest (6).
- Light ON/OFF: Press the light bulb icon button to turn the light on or off.
- Light Color Temperature: The 'C/T' button cycles through 3000K (Warm Yellow), 4500K (Bright Daylight), and 6000K (Cool White) light options.
- Light Dimming: Use the dimming buttons (up/down arrows) to adjust light brightness from 0% to 100%. The fan features a light memory function, retaining the last setting when turned on again.
- Timer Function: Buttons labeled '1H', '4H', '8H' set the fan to automatically turn off after 1, 4, or 8 hours.
- Reversible Motor: The 'F/R' button changes the direction of the fan blades. In summer, blades rotate counter-clockwise for downward airflow. In winter, blades rotate clockwise for upward airflow to circulate warm air.
- Natural Wind Mode: The 'Wave' icon button simulates a natural breeze by varying fan speeds.
6.2 Reversible Motor Function
The reversible DC motor allows for year-round use. In summer, the fan creates a downward airflow for a cooling effect. In winter, reversing the blade direction circulates warm air trapped near the ceiling, helping to reduce heating costs.
