4. Operating Instructions
Your Bajaj PX 97 Torque New air cooler is equipped with user-friendly knob controls for fan speed and swing/pump functions.
- Power On/Off: Turn the 'FAN' knob to the 'ON' position to start the cooler. Turn it to 'OFF' to switch off.
- Fan Speed Control: The 'FAN' knob allows you to select between three fan speeds: Low, Medium, and High. Rotate the knob to your desired setting.

- Water Pump Operation: Ensure the water tank is filled before activating the pump. The pump circulates water over the Hexacool pads, facilitating evaporative cooling.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your air cooler.
- Water Tank Cleaning: Regularly drain and clean the water tank to prevent algae growth and maintain hygiene. Use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.
- Hexacool Pad Cleaning: The Anti-Bacterial Hexacool pads should be cleaned periodically. Refer to the product manual for specific instructions on removing and cleaning the pads. Ensure they are completely dry before re-installing.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the cooler with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the cooler for an extended period, ensure the water tank is completely drained and dry. Clean all components and store in a dry, dust-free environment.
