Operating Instructions
Humidity Sensor Operation
- Automatic Mode: The fan will automatically activate when the humidity level in the bathroom reaches 60%. A green LED indicator light will illuminate to confirm humidity mode is active.
- Manual Mode: To operate the fan continuously, move the wall switch to the "ON" position. A red LED indicator light will illuminate.
- Switching Modes: To toggle between Automatic (humidity sensing) and Manual modes, cycle the wall switch of the fan to the "OFF" position and then back to "ON".

The bottom panel shows Humidity Sensing Mode with a green LED indicator, signifying automatic activation at 60% humidity. A separate image shows a hand operating a wall switch to cycle modes.
LED Light Operation
- Brightness: The integrated LED light provides 1500 lumens of illumination.
- Color Temperature Selection (3CCT): Choose between Warm White (3000K), Bright White (4000K), or Daylight (5000K) by sliding the toggle switch located on the back of the light shade during installation or maintenance.
- Night Light Mode: To activate the 2200K night light, switch the main light switch OFF and then back ON again within 2 seconds.
- Compatibility: This unit is not compatible with dimmer switches or timer switches.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Fan does not turn on. | No power, loose wiring, faulty switch. | Check circuit breaker. Verify all wiring connections are secure. Test wall switch. |
| Light does not turn on. | No power, loose wiring, faulty switch, LED module issue. | Check circuit breaker. Verify all wiring connections. Ensure light circuit is separate from fan. |
| Fan is excessively noisy. | Ductwork obstruction, improper duct size, loose mounting, motor issue. | Check ductwork for obstructions. Ensure 6-inch ducting is used without reducers if possible. Verify fan is securely mounted. |
| Humidity sensor not activating. | Fan in manual mode, sensor malfunction. | Cycle wall switch OFF then ON to ensure fan is in humidity sensing mode (green LED). If issue persists, contact customer support. |
| Light settings bypass or change unexpectedly. | Light and fan circuits are not separated. | Ensure the light and fan are wired on separate circuits or controlled by a double switch to prevent interference. |
