• Cleaning: Unplug the fan before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners or allow water to drip into the motor housing.

• No Lubrication Required: The fan motor is permanently lubricated and requires no additional oiling.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Hurricane Classic Clip-On Fan.

Fan Does Not Turn On (No Power)

If your fan has no power after 3 years of use, or at any time, check the fuse located in the plug.

• Check the Power Outlet: Ensure the outlet is functioning by plugging in another appliance.
• Inspect the Fuse: Many fans include a fuse within the plug. Carefully open the fuse compartment (refer to the plug's specific design) and check if the fuse is blown. Replace with a fuse of the same rating if necessary.
• Examine the Power Cord: Look for any visible damage to the cord or plug. If damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.

Oscillation Function Not Working Correctly

If the oscillation only works when actively pulling down on the oscillation cord, it indicates the mechanism may not be fully engaged.

• Engaging Oscillation: Pull the oscillation cord firmly downwards until you hear a distinct "click." This ensures the oscillation mechanism is fully engaged. If it does not click, try pulling slightly harder.
• Disengaging Oscillation: Pull the oscillation cord again to disengage the function.

Tilt Function Not Holding Position

If the fan head springs back up after being tilted, the internal gear system may need to be reset.

• Repeated Adjustment: Gently pull the fan head down to the desired tilt position. If it springs back, repeat the action several times. The internal gears should eventually engage and hold the position as intended.
