Operating Instructions

Important: Friji Fan comes with a magnetic switch installed behind the fan housing. It 

is used for in-store demonstration purposes only. For household use, please locate and 

remove the magnetic switch before plugging the fan in. Instructions for removing the 

switch are described in step 2 below. If you do not remove the magnetic switch before 

plugging the fan in, your appliance will turn off after 30 seconds.

If you have removed the magnetic switch, but your fan turns off after 30 seconds, 

unplug, and then plug in again. The electronics will re-set and your fan will run 

continuously. 

Please read and follow all instructions and warnings when operating, 

cleaning and maintaining Friji Fan. 

Caution:

 Before plugging in or unplugging Friji Fan, be sure hands and feet are dry 

and you are standing on dry ground.

Unpack and Prepare for First Use.

  1.   

Remove Friji Fan from the packaging and inspect all parts for damage. If any 

part is damaged or missing call toll free 1-866-456-2814 or email  

[email protected]. If power cord is damaged do not use. 

Note: Do not plug in yet. There are a number of steps to complete first. 

  2.

   Remove the magnetic switch. (If fan is for in-store demonstration purposes, 

do not remove magnetic switch.)

  3.  

Using the base handles to move your Friji Fan, place it on a flat, stable 

surface in the area you want to cool. For best results, and to prevent water 

damage, follow these guidelines:

– 

Do not place Friji Fan directly on wood furniture, floors, or any other 

unprotected furniture or areas that can be damaged by water.

– 

Place your Friji Fan so that the initial output of mist-infused air is not 

directly in front of furniture, walls, furnishings, or where floor areas 

become slippery when wet.
