Operation
Remote Control Functions
The included remote control allows for convenient adjustment of all fan and light settings:
- Fan Speed: Select from 6 speed levels or a natural breeze mode.
- Fan Direction: Change the rotation direction for summer (downdraft) or winter (updraft) modes.
- Timer: Set the fan to turn off automatically after 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours.
- Sleep Mode: Automatically circulates air at lower speeds (1-3) for optimal sleep comfort.
- Light Control: Turn the light on/off and adjust color temperature.
Reversible Motor for Seasonal Use
The fan features a reversible DC motor to optimize air circulation throughout the year.
- Summer Mode (Downdraft): Blades rotate counter-clockwise, pushing cool air downwards to create a cooling effect.
- Winter Mode (Updraft): Blades rotate clockwise, drawing cool air up and pushing warm air down from the ceiling, helping to redistribute heat.
