- Airflow: The fan is designed to provide a maximum airflow of 9 m³/min, ensuring efficient air circulation.
Ensure the vent cover is open to allow for proper air exchange when the fan is in operation.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your FIAMMA Turbo Vent Kit.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan blades and internal garnish to prevent dust and debris buildup. Use a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure the fan is turned off and power is disconnected before cleaning.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the wiring and connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Tighten any loose connections.
- Obstruction Check: Ensure there are no obstructions around the fan blades that could impede its operation.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the plastic components.
