Operating Instructions
Your Ohniyou ceiling fan comes with a convenient remote control for easy operation of all functions.
1. Remote Control Functions
The remote allows you to control the fan speed, light on/off, natural wind mode, fan direction (reversible), and set a timer.

2. Fan Speeds
The fan features 6 adjustable wind speeds to suit various needs:
- Low Speed (1-2): Ideal for sleeping or reading, providing a gentle breeze.
- Medium Speed (3-4): Suitable for working or general air circulation.
- High Speed (5-6): Provides powerful airflow for quick cooling or during sports activities.
Image: A visual guide to the 6 adjustable wind speeds, showing recommended uses: Low Speed (1-2) for sleeping/reading, Medium Speed (3-4) for working, and High Speed (5-6) for sports.
3. Reversible Function (Summer/Winter Mode)
The fan's reversible DC motor allows for year-round use. In summer, the downward airflow creates a cooling effect. In winter, the upward airflow helps circulate warm air trapped near the ceiling, balancing indoor heating.
